Got my skid steer stuck good this weekend... pushed it back into a ditch (thought i was using bucket to get unstuck). I'll be digging and digging before i look to pull this out.
Couple of questions (and yes, is is quite buried, my 4x4 forklift gave up on me getting it out, although i believe the chain i used was crappy).
1) would you just put chains on this? I'm leaning towards chains on the rear tires, 2link (so more cross chains), D-style.... well thsese ones http://www.canadianchains.ca/Double-Duty-Square-Link--Skid-Steer_p_36.html
2) or would you get the snow tires for the machine instead?
i have a plow i can make mount for the case coming now... (a pity plow i'll cal lit) to push the snow better. My old forklift (new owner hasn't picked it up yet) pushed out 18" of snow without a worry. i need this machine to be able to take over. I believe chains and the plow will take care of business.
