John Deere Snowblower - 1025r - vs Blizzard

Today we'll use the John Deere Snowblower attachment on the 1025r to clean up after the blizzard of 2022. Looks like we have about a foot of snow overall with some drifts up to 2 feet deep. Let's get the John Deere 1025r with the 47 inch front mount snowblower and get busy. This set up with the snowblower on the front and a 60 inch plow blade on the back is (in my opinion) the perfect setup for snow removal. We also have a stuck car to deal with so let's get started.
Equipment used:
John Deere 1025r subcompact tractor
John Deere 47 inch snowblower
King Cutter 60 inch back blade

I was so happy this year to get to use my Husqvarna snowblower. It's no machine like that but I bought it 3 years ago and hadn't had any snow since here in Maryland. Took care of a couple 6-8" snows we had in January really nicely. Neighbors even got in on it I was so happy to use the thing. That's an awesome setup. We haven't had a snow like yours in 15 years but if we do I think I'll just stay inside! Enjoyed watching.

[@BackyardMaine]

I used a walk behind snow blower on this driveway for about 18 years. It worked great but I’m getting older and have always wanted a small tractor. In 2018 I bought this setup used with just 5 hours on it for a great price. I’m glad you’ve had a chance to use you machine this year. We just had another storm so I’ll be out again tomorrow. Video on Sunday. Thanks for watching!

There are times when I would like a bigger tractor but for my needs its probably the perfect size. With the back blade / blower combo it great for snow. Thanks for you comment Bob and thanks for watching.

I have a very similar blower on a Simplicity Sunstar and it performs like yours. IE: it does a fine job as long as you aren't in a hurry. I also have a slightly over driven single stage on a 20hp Simp Sovereign and it is much faster, although maybe not as clean.

[@ActiveJoe]

As someone who has a 60” Meteor rear PTO snowblower on a sub-compact tractor • Your tractor and front pto snow blower seem to do the job with no issue. I like that you have a rear blade mounted at the same time too • Rear PTO blowers near me are about 1/3 the price of front blowers and make it worth it by allowing it to still have a front implement on at the same time too • Thanks so very much for posting and sharing Backyard Maine- love seeing that snow come out the cute! All the best and God Bless. 🙏❤🇺🇸

[@BackyardMaine]

I have some friends with the rear PTO driven snowblowers and they sure get the job done. I bought my tractor used with the blower and added the back blade which I think is a great combination for my property. My neighbor has the same tractor with a plow connected to his loader frame and that works well too. Any setup beats the shovel or walk behind snowblower.. Thanks for watch and your thoughtful comments. God Bless..

[@jackhammer2671]

I have the 1025 with the rear blower and agree it's great to be able to use the bucket when using the blower...it's great and gets the job done however it's a pain in the ass as you have to be turned around looking back at all times when the blower is in use...I live in Nova Scotia Canada on a hill overlooking the ocean and the last ten years or so all we get is wet heavy snow and it'll make the 1025 work for sure...that light powdery snow like in this video is nothing to remove...bought mine new and if I had to do it over again I would have the front blower instead and a cab...live and learn I guess.

[@colbysvoboda2448]

[@bobnarrus3218]

Great job! I went back and fourth on what to get and ended up with the plow. It's worked out well for me. I think I am most impressed with how the 1025R moves through the snow. I bought snow chains when I bought my plow and they are still in the box, haven't needed them. Best of luck and keep the great content coming!

[@bobnarrus3218]

@@billvandorn5332 Good chance you might need chains if your driveway is steep. I have lots of ballast on mine and it makes a difference. Good luck with whatever you choose to do.

[@lorinkramer1524]

Your excellent video just reinforced the conclusion I've come to. A snowblower definitely has it's advantages over a plow blade. Your driveway is much larger than mine. With a deep snow as shown, with a plow-it moves the snow, but you still have to put it someplace; requires double handling. With a snowblower, you reduce or eliminate the second step. The majority of the snow is cleared and moved with the first step. Final clean up can be done with a plow with minimal effort like you did with a backblade. Thanks again, great video!

[@BackyardMaine]

Thank you. One of my neighbors has the same tractor with a plow. It seems to work good for him but I prefer the blower as well. He has to push the snow quite a distance onto his lawn to make room for future storms. Thanks a lot for watching! Have a great day. 👍

[@idaiki]

As a tractor and blower user and fan myself. If you can get a cab, it makes a huge difference. I have a JD3320 open cab and after 10 years finally added the cheapest cab I could find. I can't express how much of a difference this made. Of course make sure you have a large enough door for the height. Backyard Maine looks like he wouldn't have that option as the ROPS bar is folded over in order to fit (I assume). I myself had to do some minor modifications to my overhead door to make mine fit, and it just barely does. But worth every moment of trouble to make it fit IMHO.

[@BackyardMaine]

@@idaiki Great advice. Thank you. When I get a cab I’ll have to build another bay on the garage with a tall door. Someday but not anytime soon.

[@username-mc7jw]

I used to have TWO John Deere 212 tractors when I lived in NY. I had one with a plow, and one with a blower. The plow was MUCH faster with smaller amounts of snow (4-5" and under). The blower cleared stuff the plow wouldn't have been able to get through. Deepest I ever did with the blower was 37". So, tell your wife you need BOTH a plow AND a blower. LOL

[@BackyardMaine]

I use the back blade with small storms maybe 3 inches or less and it goes really fast. I wouldn't want to have to take the blower off to use the plow because that's actually a bit of work. Thanks for the comment and for watching.

[@billvandorn5332]

That back blade really complemented the blower! You did a nice job and I'm glad to see you took ownership for going too fast. Spring is almost here and as I listen to the birds chirping I shall miss the beautiful landscape of snow.

[@BackyardMaine]

Thanks Bill.. I love the blower blade combo. The setup works really well for me. All the snow is gone here in southern Maine. We could still get another storm but with no snow in the 10 day forecast it doesn't look likely. I think I'm ready for spring though.. Thanks for watching!

[@316jd140]

It looks like it done well. We got about 8 inches, but it was on top of about an inch of ice, so traction even with a snowblower and 4WD would require more aggressive tires probably.

[@BackyardMaine]

The last storm we had was three inches of sleet. I went out the next morning to clear it with the back blade but it turned to concrete overnight. I was barely making tracks with the tractor. I prefer snow to sleet or freezing rain. Thanks for watching!

[@billvandorn5332]

@@BackyardMaine if I know that sleet or ice is coming I'll spend the extra 50 to 100 bucks with rock salt or calcium chloride as a pretreatment. Since I'm on a steep hill I'll usually throw 100 to 200 lb of rock salt down afterwards if I have the inkling it's going to melt and refreeze at night as I would rather not see anybody slip and get hurt

[@BackyardMaine]

@@billvandorn5332 Sounds like a good plan.

[@mountainrunner6922]

Silly question for you... if you were to use the blower and drop the blade at the same time, angle the blade toward your unfinished area, would that kill two birds with one stone? I just have a walk behind Ariens that I use... not enough real estate for a monster like that unfortunately! Great video!

[@BackyardMaine]

Great question! For some reason the blade on an angle doesn’t direct the snow well unless it’s wet snow. I have tried that with little success. NowI find it faster to just use the blower and not worry about spill over and do a quick cleanup with the blade at the end. Thanks for watching!

[@georgesprovost7863]

I watch with envy. As a young man I used to clean the500 feet driveway of my parents cottage with my dads boldens tractor and snowblower. It had a cab on it and soon go very warm inside. Good souvenir. I hope some day to own a tractor. You did a great job of cleaning and filming.

You are correct but it was classified a blizzard which doesn’t have anything to do with snow accumulation. Sometimes March can bring big storms though. Fingers crossed 🤞

I have had good luck in deeper snows running the transmission on the low side that way I don’t go to fast and push a lot of snow like you showed yourself doing and said you need to slow down. We got a cab for ours and that is so nice to keep the wind off because the wind is always seems to change while your blowing snow as you know

[@BackyardMaine]

I do run it in low range but I was going to fast for sure. I was running three camera and had a stuck car so I guess my mind was on other things. Yes a cab would be awesome. Thanks for watching!

Excellent good work

[@BackyardMaine]

Thanks a lot John! This video seemed to have the magic formula for the YT algorithm.. Now the trick is to replicate it ..

[@stevenlamontagne3438]

That was some pretty snow!

[@BackyardMaine]

Gorgeous day with the new snow. Cold though. Thanks for watching!

[@viperrwk]

That thing is a beast! Do you have enough traction with the backblade to handle slushy, wet and icy conditions? Nice job you got that done real quick!

[@BackyardMaine]

Thanks you! Yes the turf tires have surprisingly good traction. I though I might need chains but I have never even come close to getting stuck. The back blade works perfect for small accumulation and especially for slush. Thanks for watching!

[@raywebb7501]

Whata Beautiful Video! You should be proud of your property!

[@BackyardMaine]

Thank you!!

[@markmanning5683]

I Love this stuff. I have a John Deere also and would love to purchase this additional equipment, I live in East Central Indiana and sometimes we get Snow and most times not. I have lived with using a Toro Snow Blower that works great. But Man, I would love to get this Blower and Blade. You can keep the Snow. I'm 68 now and hate the Cold anymore.

[@BackyardMaine]

I’m getting older too and with each passing year I like the cold a little less. But I do love living in Maine. Thanks for watching

[@garyp1930]

Nice !!

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

Enjoyed this. I live in terrell texas and we never see snow like this. Awesome machine!

[@BackyardMaine]

I worked for Texas Instruments base out of Dallas so I have been to Texas many time. Also air force time there back in the 80s. Thanks for watching!

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

@@BackyardMaine awesome. My uncle retired from Texas Instruments He worked on the gun sighting system for the Apache helicopter back in the day

[@BackyardMaine]

@@THEMOWERMEDIC1 that’s awesome. I spent four years in the air force back in the 80s. I retired at 55 from TI. They have a site here in Maine. I was an electrical engineer responsible for all the facilities systems.

[@joeschmo9838]

I won't lie, I grew up in Texas and moved back to Wisconsin with my parents and blowing off the driveway is oddly satisfying/pleasing. I think it's the clean cut "walls" that appease me. We have a (I believe) 24" Ariens.

[@BackyardMaine]

I had a 28" Ariens for 18 years. They work well and mine always started on the first pull. Thanks for watching.

[@derricklowe2823]

It's amazing how a heavy snowfall ☃ can have a Beautiful Picturesque sight :39 and at the same time be a great hassle for simply needing to park the car 🚙 up near your home 🏡 ☺.

[@undsiouxma13]

Looks awesome, wait until you get a cab on there. The 1025 is an awesome machine.

[@BackyardMaine]

Yes a cab would be nice for sure. I love the tractor as well... It's the perfect size for my needs. Thanks for watching. I'll have another video out tomorrow. 👍

[@thescott9742]

nice video great work and one damn good tractor perfect!

[@BackyardMaine]

Thank you and of course thanks for watching!👍
