I'd say the previous owner failed to observe tip # 9.

Tnx for the follow-up.

What model # wagner loader is that I have the exact one but can't read the tag looks like maybe w3 mb does that sound right. the tag has seen better days.

Flembo, don't remember off the top of my head but I'll check the next time I go to the property and let you know.

flembo, looked on the tag this morning and the loader is a WF3 FF. I have the manual for it somewhere if you need more info about the unit.

Now - That should get it done. The only problem I have with a setup like that is, When I push heavy snow, the plow pushes the front of the tractor sideways. Also I added a set of shoes to keep the the plow from digging in.

Looks like chains on front tires are last step. If so "Have fun steering it."
When it gets that bad with my deaarborn bulldozer, I shove a bunch to the angle side of plow to shove it out of way, and then back up and take another bite.

Thanks for getting back to me I took a closer look at yours and see you don't have down pressure that could be the difference my # definetly ends with MB.Thanks again Don

The way *I* see it, that is the most common design flaw with Ns and loaders... the bucket/blade is WAAAAAY to far forward of the front axle.

It works the front axle too hard, it makes steering an issue and is an overall mechanical NEGATIVE.... not to mention that it further serves to unload the back tire traction.

Even people, when we carry an item, we keep it in close.

But nevertheless, we are steeped in TRADITION and long reach loaders won't get cured.

Jim, it's hard to tell in the picture but there are normal round shoes on the back of the plow.

Duey, you are a 100% correct. BUT, a working loader with two buckets, snow plow, forks and a set of rear tire chains for $200 off of Craigslist. I am more than happy to deal with and overcome a few inherent design flaws.
