Must be an unusual amount of snow from the way you were talking. For the season we're down at only 111 inches and 30 minutes north they are way down from last year at ONLY 198 inches for the season. Glad you seem to have had fun with your lil tractor. Something that I used when I used a snowblower was Pam cooking spray however when it's sticky snow not much will stop the sticking.
We’ve had more snow this February and early March than we’ve ever had. The entire month of February never got above freezing. The snow isn’t too bad it’s the cold and dry air that really gets to me. As I type this I’m sitting on the sundeck of a cruise ship headed towards the Bahamas. My wife picked a good winter to get out of Minnesota. Definitely needed the break. 👍😁 Keep on tractoring and God bless
@@ritterjon Minnesota? Yup it was cold there. When it left you folks it headed east into upstate NY (located north of Syracuse NY), I think this week is the first week with more than a day or two in a row above freezing since January. Enjoy the boat ride, and heat, as you've earned it. And I still want a set up like yours :)
God has blessed you with a beautiful family, I love your daughters kitty cat hat. Just think about how much fun they are having playing in the snow they would miss that if you moved somewhere warm, I remember some of my best memories are of playing in the snow, my father would take me and my two sisters over to my aunt's house she had a hill in her backyard that was great for sledding, here in NJ we have been snow deprived this winter, a couple of 1 to 3 inch snowfalls that's it, but we've had a lot of rain this winter, thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much Peter, I am a lucky man, there's no doubt about it. I can't wait for it to warm again so we can take the girls to the big sledding hill in town. We certainly have plenty of snow to last us half way into April at least. Lots of time to play in the snow yet. It just need to warm up a bit. Today it was -18 when we work up. Suppose to warm up to -4. I think we'll stay inside today. :-) Some of my fondest memories are also going to the local sledding hill with my dad, building jumps and having fun. Thanks for the kind comment and God bless.
Hey Jon, Your neighbors to the south are getting buried as well. I went up to plow my 94 year old Dad out and found him lying on the floor after suffering a fall earlier that morning. When I found him, he had been there for 7 1/2 hours. He has been hospitalized/ assisted living for 25 days. He passed away yesterday morning. Although I will miss him greatly, at 94 he had an incredible run. All the snow that is piled every where and piled deep, is making it tough to find enough room to park everybody. February is my least favorite month of the year and this year is certainly no exception. As always Jon, sure do enjoy your videos. Keep 'em comin'. Gary from Iowa
Hey Gary, so sorry to hear about your Dad. 94 years is a long time, I bet you made a lot of good memories with him. May God bless you and your family and bring you peace. So sorry.
Hi Jon! 30 inches of snow? I can’t even imagine it. Come to think of it, I don’t want to imagine it! I might try that silicone spray on my tilting utility trailer. Maybe I can actually dump loads with that on there. Always heartwarming to see you playing with your family! Stay warm and keep ‘em coming!
Enough snow to last us awhile. I'm going to do a video soon of just driving around our two so you can really see how ridiculous it is. That silicone spray might work well on your trailer. I've actually used PAM cooking spring on my dump trailer and it worked pretty well. I might have to try it on the snowblower as well. Keep in tractoring and God bless.
Great video is that a Heated Cab very nice setup if you don’t mind me asking what did that setup run you Thank you for sharing God Bless you guys..👍❤️🙏💪🇺🇸
Good morning Jon. LOL. I think your daughter was waiting for you to use the tractor to pull her car out of the snow. :)) Looks like you are finally getting some good snowfalls there and hey , getting a day off work to spend some time on the tractor and with the family is never a bad thing. I also heard that spraying the equipment with silicon spray would reduce the stick factor and I haven't tried it yet, but not sure it did much, from what I could see, but appreciate you testing it out a little more and I will be interested to see how it fairs after a few more uses. Thanks again and enjoy the unexpected holiday with the family!
They weren't getting far in their little plastic fisher price car. I can't believe that snow amounts we are getting and more is forecasted to come. I think the silicon spray worked great on my blade but the snowblower didn't look like it made much difference however that was after 3 hours of blowing snow so it wore off. I'll keep testing. Keep on tractoring and God bless.
Hey hey Jon You asked for the snow and it was given to you. I never have tried anything on my blade but I will now just to see if my light fluffy snow will slide off. It is so nice of you to do all those neighbors. 👍👍👍👍
Pretty soon we’re going to start getting that heavy wet snow so I figure it’s about time I come up with a solution. Many subs have commented that Fluid Film works good as well. If I can find some I’ll be trying it. I’ve got some happy neighbors, we all take care of each other. Couldn’t be a better place to raise a family. Keep on tractoring and God bless.
That is a good amount of snow! So cool when kids does not have school AND you don't have to go to work AND you can take care of your family AND have some tractor seat time! Life is nice! I think one other comment below mention about the silicone has to be dry to be effective. Also, pay attention the paint is perfectly dry before applying. There could be a slight condensation. Anyways, your snow blower is effective enough, you don't seem to need that much silicone. Thanks for sharing Jon!
I was wondering about drying time, I'm sure it's in the directions on the can but who really takes their time to read those. Thanks for the advise. As a school teacher snow clearing works out well for me. Heavy snowfall days usually result in a day off or at least a 2 hour delay start. We've had 5 snow days this year which has never happened in my career. We'll be making up a few of those days in June. Keeping on tractoring and God bless.
I've used that on my snowblower chute with some success but the best things I've found is spray on turtle wax. However silicone might work better for the mower deck. I'll try it out. thanks! Keep on tractoring.
Hi Jon, When using your back blade and lowering your blade, do you keep your control lever on the down position or you bring it back to neutral. I am new to the tractor. I just received it on December 21, so I have a lot to learn. I haven't used my rear blade yet. Some pins are missing. Merry christmas to you and your family.
Well with the BX I'm stuck with that dumb 1/4 inching valve instead of a height adjustment lever so I have to frequently push down on the lever. It's a pain Kubota needs to improve! Keep on tractoring!
You asked for it, you got it. We got the remnants of that storm, about an inch fell, with sleet on top of it. We're expecting high 40s the next few days, enough to melt some of it. Go figure. Nice to see you enjoying (?) your new cab.
I wish we could get some melting temps. Saturday might hit 32, but after that back into single digits again for awhile. When this stuff melts there is going to be some major flooding in areas. God bless.
10:10 so much for..."only in a Jeep". HAHA!!.A very nice 📹 video. Something you might want to try that's alot better then the silicone spray. Amsoil Marine grade silicone grease. This grease is used on the outside Hull of sea going ships to prevent severe rusting. It's not a spray though and you have to use a shop rag to apply it.(like waxing a car another words) This stuff WILL NOT wash off once applied.Use it inside your snow discharge chute too.
Yep, you picked the right year to get a tractor with a cab. We here in New York were talking about how we are getting nothing because you guys are taking it all. This is my first winter with a tractor and I’ve been looking forward to some snow. Oh well;-)
You're right, I'd be a lot more miserable without the cab. Hoping you get a good storm to have some tractor fun soon. What did you get? Keep on tractoring and God bless.
A RITTER BIT WILL DO went with the green.! My buddy has red, I like the blue ones, and honestly I’d have been happy with any tractor. They were all similarly priced (after negotiating) so I went with the Deere 1025R with a backhoe:-)
Furniture polish! There's another great idea. I'm going to give that a try sometime. I'm determined to find out what really works the best. Thanks for watching! God bless.
Good luck with the rest of the winter. We’ve lucked out in South Jersey. It has rained immediately after every snowfall, including yesterday. I’ve yet to use the Kubota this winter. On another note, just wondering if there is much of a difference between silicone brands. I would assume there probably is. I’ve used silicone spray on my old snowblower, and it worked well. Great video, and great timing purchasing the new toy with the cab when you did!
I'll keep testing and hopefully we'll have some kind of scientific method to determine what product is best. You can have as much of our snow as you'd like. Come and get it. :-) Keep on tractoring and God bless.
Fleet Farm sells a product called Clean Machine , It's a coating you spray on let dry, then coat it agaiin .I have used this on my 42' riding mower the grass doesn't stick , Also i have used it on my 27' Murray snow blower . Snow doesn't stick . $10.00 for a spray can . They sell it in the repair parts section . We had a snowy winter in Wisconsin . Also non stick cooking spray works too . Wife will not be happy if you use up her cooking spray . Buy your own can . Remember happy wife , happy life .
The back plow is a perfect accessory to go with a snow blower. Able to pull the snow away from the garage doors in the house and then blow it to Kingdom Come. So many of the snow blowers leave quite a pile right in front of the garage door cuz that's as close as they can get. Some but not many are able to run sideways next to the garage doors and that works pretty good but in general that's not how things go.
You're going to love having a snowblower, it's a super efficient method of moving snow. Are you getting a front or rear mount? Keep on tractoring!! God bless
@@ritterjon I am getting the front mount blower. I have a 3 point now and I HATE it. Just doesn't work for me, if I had a smooth hard surface it would probably be fine but I don't and it isn't!
We it's about time you got some snow. I've been watching Mike Morgan near Pittsburg and he hasn't seemed to get much this winter. Looks like a nice place to live. Warmer than here for sure. Keep on tractoring and God bless.
How's she goin'? A snow with the family, how sweet is that!!! As for the silicone spray, I use spray on cooking oil like PAM or whatever the current no-name brand is. It's biodegradable and cheap and works great here in central Nova Scotia. Just sayin'. Take 'er easy and enjoy the rest of the snow day!!!
Hey Grampie, I've used PAM for my dump trailer when I load it with dirt. Sure works well. I should give it a good test on the snowblower as well. Future video! Keep on tractoring and God bless.
I didn't but I don't push snow very often with the back of my blade. I'm going to be doing some more testing and find out what the best product is to keep snow from sticking. Stay tuned! Keep on tractoring and God bless.
When I got my new tractor it was either another BX with a cab or a B2650 with a factory cab. I think the Curtis Cab is more versatile because I can remove the doors and back panel for the summer. It’s really ideal for my situation. No regrets. Keep on tractoring and God bless
Yes sir, you can't beat all that free stuff from Harbor Freight. Some of their stuff may be junk, but they have a lot of good deals too! This snow season has been crazy. It seems that I'm out every other day plowing my yard and driveway out! I'm running out of room to push all that snow and we have more coming. And this is still February? We have March to look forward to yet!!!
It could become an ugly year for flooding with all this snow. As much as I'd like it to warm up I hope it warms gradually. I find more and more stuff from Harbor Freight, many of their products have been compared to Snap-On Matco tools and have gone head to head with the more expensive brands. Why would waste my money. Also, love the free stuff. Thanks for watching and God bless.
I always enjoy your snow removal video's, the video's without the cab were better though. lol I've been collecting the free 6" magnet dishes ( 9 so far ) while I'm here in Alabama. Thanks for sharing, peace out.
Better without the cab you say. Not for me no thanks, so glad that I made the upgrade. Those magnet dishes are great, I love when they are free. God bless.
@@ritterjon "Better without the cab you say. Not for me no thanks", but think of all the joy you would bring to your subscribers without the cab. lol I reached my goal of 10 of the free 6" magnet dishes today, I never knew they had free 6" dishes until my son printed out a bunch of coupons for them.....now to start collecting the magnet strips ( have three as of now ).
Hey Jon try some unsented pledge to. We use it on snowmachine and four wheeler helps with snow from sticking and mud on wheelers in summer time. Might be cheaper than silicone spay??
A couple other subscribers have mentioned that. I’m definitely going to have to do a comparison video in the future with multiple products. Silicone spray, fluid film, furniture polish, cooking spray... seems a lot of people try different stuff. “Snowmachines” you crazy Alaskans. 😁👍 Take care cousin! God bless
I'm in southern MN. We're supposed to get some rain before snow saturday. I was bush hogging with my BX2200 in January with no snow and it has had a workout plowing snow since then. The sledding hill is OPEN.
I bet you're keeping busy where you're at. You probably have more snow than us as I know the southern part of the state has been hit hard this winter. Time for Spring! Keep on tractoring and God bless.
We've got well over 3 feet of the stuff up here so far. Reminds me of the '97-'98 winter season. Hope things don't follow that pattern -with the Red River valley getting all flooded out. My snow plow has been getting a lot of work this year.
If this stuff starts melting fast there will be a lot of people in danger of flooding. Hoping for warm weather but not too warm too soon. Keep on tractoring and God bless
There is also a spray called Fluid Film you can try, never used it for snow but works great for keeping water off implements that cause rust, just a thought.
I did a whole video on that if you check my channel. Rubber cutting edge Kubota. It wears extremely well!! Two season so far. Very impressed. It’s sandwiched between two steel plates. Keep on tractoring and God bless
Hey Jon, one idea to look at is lube made for bike chains-- I recently started using the stuff on my mountain bike, as it says it sticks to the metal and prevents "slinging". Perhaps it would stay longer on your tractor bits? Here is what I have: www.liquidwrench.com/product/chain-cable-lube/ Thanks for the video, see ya round!
I think Harbor Freight has that stuff as well. The silicone spray I used is that Liquid Wrench brand as well. Thanks for the link and the info. I might have to give it a try. Keep on tractoring and God bless.
that back blade is a stupid way to plow snow. after you plow you are running over the snow you just plowed and risk getting stuck or compacting the snow into the ground. a really stupid concept if you ask me
A RITTER BIT WILL DO no kidding. I'm waiting for him to post a video that's better! I grew up with using back blade and rear mount snow blower. as long as you have traction your good to go with a rear blade and can move lots of snow! in fact back in 07/08 the neighbors came over with their 4040 John Deere and a large back blade! I think bush hog brand. he opened up my driveway that was 1/4 mile long. our tractor was out of service. I believe it was close to 2 foot high of snow!
We have been responding to many hundreds of requests we ship our MinnSNOWta Roof Razor. This is the very best tool to remove excess and dangerous snow off a roof. Prevent ice dams and building collapse by getting that snow off the roof while standing on the ground. Watch our videos at www.MinnSNOWtaOnline.com/p/video-gallery and then place an order. It is an amazing tool that is the official roof snow removal tool of Minnesota. We promise fast shipping.

Come visit the tug hill region of NY. Your month record is a typical one event snowfall here.
You guys get that heavy wet snow usually right? That would be fun for awhile anyway.
Keep on tractoring!
should try the silicon spray on your lawnmower to keep grass from sticking to your molboard
I've used that on my snowblower chute with some success but the best things I've found is spray on turtle wax. However silicone might work better for the mower deck. I'll try it out. thanks!
Keep on tractoring.
We got 36" today and my BX2680 doesn't come until January7th. I'm looking at the soft cab with a heater.
I'm sure some of that snow will still be around for you to play in when your new tractor arrives. Smart to get a cab and heater.
Keep on tractoring!
You might want to try spraying your blade and blower with diesel fuel. My company did that when we were plowing commercially.
You guys are getting the good ol snow that I remember when I was a kid. You have allot more than us now that's for sure. Good video
Wish I had a tractor like that.. Nice Vid !
Thank you Mac!

It seems that I'm out every other day plowing my yard and driveway out! I'm running out of room to push all that snow and we have more coming. And this is still February? We have March to look forward to yet!!!
It could become an ugly year for flooding with all this snow. As much as I'd like it to warm up I hope it warms gradually. I find more and more stuff from Harbor Freight, many of their products have been compared to Snap-On Matco tools and have gone head to head with the more expensive brands. Why would waste my money. Also, love the free stuff.
Thanks for watching and God bless.
I always enjoy your snow removal video's, the video's without the cab were better though. lol I've been collecting the free 6" magnet dishes ( 9 so far ) while I'm here in Alabama. Thanks for sharing, peace out.
Better without the cab you say. Not for me no thanks, so glad that I made the upgrade. Those magnet dishes are great, I love when they are free.
God bless.
@@ritterjon "Better without the cab you say. Not for me no thanks", but think of all the joy you would bring to your subscribers without the cab. lol I reached my goal of 10 of the free 6" magnet dishes today, I never knew they had free 6" dishes until my son printed out a bunch of coupons for them.....now to start collecting the magnet strips ( have three as of now ).
Hey Jon try some unsented pledge to. We use it on snowmachine and four wheeler helps with snow from sticking and mud on wheelers in summer time. Might be cheaper than silicone spay??
A couple other subscribers have mentioned that. I’m definitely going to have to do a comparison video in the future with multiple products. Silicone spray, fluid film, furniture polish, cooking spray... seems a lot of people try different stuff. “Snowmachines” you crazy Alaskans. 😁👍
Take care cousin!
God bless
Front mount blower is the way to go!
I'm in southern MN. We're supposed to get some rain before snow saturday. I was bush hogging with my BX2200 in January with no snow and it has had a workout plowing snow since then. The sledding hill is OPEN.
I bet you're keeping busy where you're at. You probably have more snow than us as I know the southern part of the state has been hit hard this winter. Time for Spring!
Keep on tractoring and God bless.
Jon I use the free stuff from the deep fryer :)
We've got well over 3 feet of the stuff up here so far. Reminds me of the '97-'98 winter season. Hope things don't follow that pattern -with the Red River valley getting all flooded out. My snow plow has been getting a lot of work this year.
If this stuff starts melting fast there will be a lot of people in danger of flooding. Hoping for warm weather but not too warm too soon.
Keep on tractoring and God bless
"I hope it stops snowing so they can go to school sometime"...
A year later, and they're not in school again, for different reasons this time.
There is also a spray called Fluid Film you can try, never used it for snow but works great for keeping water off implements that cause rust, just a thought.
A few people have mentioned that now. I’m going to need to find some and give it a try. Thanks for the tip.
God bless.
Your welcome, I get mine from Amazon.
The snowiest February since accurate records have been kept. (1860's)
The snowiest February since anyone alive can remember and more is on its way. It's getting old.
God bless.
Jon we only got 3 inches so just a quick blowing hope you and family enjoy
God Bless All

A plow for the front would be awesome
Funny you should mention that. Stay tuned. 👍😁
Yaaaaaahhh,...more tractor time :)
Looks like theres a rubber wedge under the cutting edge. What did you use and how does it wear?
I did a whole video on that if you check my channel.
Rubber cutting edge Kubota.
It wears extremely well!! Two season so far. Very impressed. It’s sandwiched between two steel plates.
Keep on tractoring and God bless
Must be all that global warming.
I still have nightmares from last winter.
Ya sound canadian more then my self and im canadian.
I’m originally from northern Minnesota. Sometimes my accent can be pretty thick.
Keep on tractoring!
Wish i had a AYE accent but sadly most canadians do not. Only innuits n eskmos have that or those try hard tim horton fans XD
you know what they say right..."be careful what you wish for you just may get it"
Isn’t that the truth! 🥶☃️
God bless
Hey Jon, one idea to look at is lube made for bike chains-- I recently started using the stuff on my mountain bike, as it says it sticks to the metal and prevents "slinging". Perhaps it would stay longer on your tractor bits? Here is what I have: www.liquidwrench.com/product/chain-cable-lube/
Thanks for the video, see ya round!
I think Harbor Freight has that stuff as well. The silicone spray I used is that Liquid Wrench brand as well. Thanks for the link and the info. I might have to give it a try.
Keep on tractoring and God bless.
It’s not nice to tease me with all that snow your getting!!! Send some to southern Indiana please.
You're living in the wrong for of the country to get much snow. Come up and get as much as you'd like.
God bless.
Going to have to blow out the swingset looks like! No room for their feet with all that snow.
There are mailboxes in our town that are completely buried. It's ridiculous. Bring on Spring!!!
God bless.
WD 40 fatigues steel. I learned this from sewer snake companies.
Joe Dirt would have used PAM
that back blade is a stupid way to plow snow. after you plow you are running over the snow you just plowed and risk getting stuck or compacting the snow into the ground. a really stupid concept if you ask me
You’re preferred method would be???
A RITTER BIT WILL DO no kidding. I'm waiting for him to post a video that's better! I grew up with using back blade and rear mount snow blower. as long as you have traction your good to go with a rear blade and can move lots of snow!
in fact back in 07/08 the neighbors came over with their 4040 John Deere and a large back blade! I think bush hog brand. he opened up my driveway that was 1/4 mile long. our tractor was out of service. I believe it was close to 2 foot high of snow!
