I think CNKS is right about the W6 being too fast for a snow blower. If you only have snow a couple feet deep, find yourself a front blade for it. I would think a W6 would be a real snow pusher with the right blade.

3-point hitches on a W series aren't very feasible because of the seat location. But, if you are VERY good at fabrication, maybe so.

Factory spec is 42 drawbar, 47.5 pto, unless it has a higher hp kit in it. Power is not the problem, I believe you will find that your tractor will not run slow enough for a snowblower, particularly if it is very deep. First gear is 2 5/8 mph, more or less depending on tire size. You probably need a speed about half that.
