Does anybody have or has put a front blade on these little tractors and how did they work.

JMorgan, 

Welcome. :) 

Yes, there are a few examples out there I've looked at.  Ideally, 4WD is best suited for this.

Here is a YM1401D going at it with ease.

You have about 3 options. 

1. A blade on the FEL (Front End Loader)

2. A blade using front hydraulics 

3. A blade using electrical linear ball-screw lift (mostly ATVs, SCUT, CUT, and lawn tractors) 

Cost wise, for snow work and just simple grading the gravel on the driveway, option 3 works really well. 

Swisher makes a very nice adaptable front plow blade for ATUs, UTVs, and compact tractors.

John Deere has a few options too as these do fit Yanmar machines. :) 


These here are Yanmar OE solutions.

JMorgan, 

Additionally, much like the Swisher product, ZIZ Engineering in the EU has a similar setup.

Pretty cool—literally!
