nicholsoncw11 1 #1 Posted September 22, 2020 I inherited this mower but I unfortunately have no need for it (too much grass to cut with lawn tractor) so I wanted to get a snow blade or blower for it. Blade is model 79253 and blower is 79263 but my local Toro dealer simply said "They don't make that anymore" which I pretty much assumed. I have had no luck in locating either the blade or blower second hand, so any assistant in either locating an original one, or something else that is more readily available that can be retrofit would be greatly appreciated.

ebinmaine 67,309 #2 Posted September 22, 2020 There's a fair amount of 200 series horses around. Seems like you should be able to find a plow blade for one. Watch craigslist. Fleabay. FB marketplace. put an ad up on any of those and especially here. Also maybe check with Lincoln at a to z. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,309 #3 Posted September 22, 2020 You've got plenty of power with pretty much anything over eight horse Your biggest issue is going to be getting enough weight to grab traction. You'll want to grab some weights and chains as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How would I know if any other blade is compatible with my mower unless it is the same model number? I've seen ones out there for wheelhorses, but I haven't got a clue if they are compatible 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,038 #5 Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I think any 200 series plow will work. This 210-H in this pic I owned from 1990 until 2010. Look at the plow. It mounts off the front axle. There are slots in the front frame of the tractor that carriage bolts slide into and the plow bolts to them. Then 2 flat bars go back and bolt to the sides of the tractor. ( This picture is a CL ad that the guy who bought it from me did when he went to sell it a couple of years ago. Edited September 22, 2020 by squonk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know how close the 1994-1998 79252 dozer is to fitting. And then there is this Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
