Craftsman 42" Snow Blade Model No. 486.24441 —
The 42" Snow Blade Model No. 486.2441 attached to my YTS 4000 Yard Tractor is a great attachment for plowing snow. The delivery people had already assembled the snow plow blade and had it mounted on the tractor when the tractor was delivered. I did remove the blade during the mowing season and reinstalled it for the winter weather after removing the mowing deck. Mounting of the blade was easy. The Snow Blade worked perfectly and was easy to use. I had to adjust the skids on the blade prior to using to allow the blade to run slightly off the pavement. Operation of the blade itself was simple, both up/down and side to side was a snap. Although the snowfall was light, it was heavy/wet snow.
During deep snowfalls it would be a good idea to plow before the accumulation is too deep and plow again later, rather than once when the snow depth is overwhelming.
For me, this was money well spent. Living in Michigan, with the winter snows, this was the first time that snow removal was easy!
