He talks through blade setup, why he prefers this over a disc for smoothing, and shows the tractor's limits with an oversized implement. Best for owners curious how this small tractor handles a box blade this size.
An owner-operator documenting hands-on work on his own property, sharing personal impressions rather than professional or dealer commentary.
Yes, the owner says the tractor does pretty good with the BB2072 box blade, even though it may be too big, and remains impressed for only 25 horsepower.
Second gear high range with four-wheel drive engaged, since two-wheel drive with one wheel spinning does not perform well with dirt load behind it.
The owner tried repeatedly to use a disc to pull rolled dirt back over but had no luck, so he uses the box blade to smooth it out instead.
