A belly blade won't work for snow because the front tires are so close to the blade. As the snow builds up it will start to lift the tractor and eventually it will become saddlebagged. Also as the snow builds up it will quickly pack snow around the front tires causing you to lose steering. I only know this because I know a guy that has one and watched it happen, there's was 2 to 3" of snow on the ground and he made it 20ft before he lost steering and another 10 ft before it was saddlebagged which required about 20 minutes of shoveling and messing around to get it free.
