Snow/Dirt Plow Hydraulics Setup
 

Last year plow setup worked ok, but a hydraulic setup would work much better.The old setup used a winch which has a little too much drift and you had to get off the machine to angle the plow (PITA).

My friend saw a 105 and asked if I was interested in going to look at it. When we went to see it, the people said it didn't run and there was a plow setting on the junk pile. they asked how much I would give and I said $100.00 for the tractor and the plow.They said ok get it out of here (they were going to scrap it).

I cleaned the plow and did a mock up to see how it would go together. here's the parts I used.

After some trial and error, I found a place for the pump, control valve and reservoir tank.

Yup, works good. Moves ground and the power angle works great. Happy, happy, happy. :biggrin2:

Only one problem, the cylinder for up and down is too slow on the float for plowing snow (ok for ground work). I put a smaller cylinder on it, now it's fine.
