Zetor 6245 Front Blade Mounting points please.

[kingul]

Contemplating building front blade set up. Need to know mount points please? I have good rear mount blade which adjusts tilt and skew. Tilt by hydraulics.

Anticipate single central ram to raise and lower blade assembly. Four pads exist, two each side below front of
engine, each pad has two tapped holes of around 12 mm.
I assume a further point may be at front cabin mount point. This would seem necessary for additional strength and stability.

Thanks in advance again.

Depends on how big the blade is and what you intend to push. Best is to extend the frame all the way to the rear axle, and clamp it to the cab mount tube.
The bolts on each side of the front end are M14 up front and M16 right in front of the engine, if i remember correctly.

Thanks for that suggestion. Blade is 2400 mm wide and I have used it for my dirt road on a Kubota 4500DT which has developed a cylinder head leak. I grabbed the Zetor as a standby until the Kubota is fixed.

Our terrain is volcanic, rocky, with slopes at up to 35 degrees and steeper. Had the Kubota up on two wheels at one stage.
The right hand side and front. Could push it down with my hands but it would go back at almost tip over height. Decide to go for it on full power down slope via a forest of Lantana between two gum trees.
Made it to a level area below and cleared the lanta. Grin!
