Google "pinzgauer schneepflug" and you'll find a bunch of pictures to give you ideas. I think SAV had one a few years ago. Since there's not much call for snowplows in Georgia, they might still have it laying around somewhere.

My Pinz from Pinzgauer Canada was fitted with a plow when I bought it. The plow was removed, of course. Karl Portman has or had at least two.

Interesting!
Do you know how they worked? Electric powered hydraulics?
Must be pretty rare as even the suggested Google search only showed about 8-10 pictures and many of those were of the same trucks.

Follow the link in frankenstein 's post, only one photo
viewtopic.php?p=27904 looks like it is mounted using the tube and front tow point, i'm guessing that there is an electrically driven hydrolic pump on top of the mount and the hydrolic lines going thru the grill are only control lines.
As a side, I have a steep gravel driveway with loose switchbacks. I use a 4x4 Kabota tractor with a drag blade for up to about a foot of snow and have a rear mount pto blower for when its deeper. I prefer the blade when I can get away with it as it's faster and easier than the blower. Much harder to leave the gravel where it should be with the blower. I doubt the rear mount blade would work well with a Pinz as I spend a lot of time looking over my shoulder to see how it's preforming.

Those blades are huge. Does that 710 really have enough power to push large amounts of snow? Maybe the dry snow with out much water content but wet heavy snow? I have seen Mogs with that type of attachment but my first pinz with one.

I do like the counterweight in the back!

My Pinz was fitted with 2 concrete blocks in the back at Pinzgauer Canada. I opted to leave them behind.......
