I was thinking of trying to use a magnatrac jr. bulldozer to clean out some spots in a barn where a larger tractor won't fit. Do you think it will be any use?

well all depends, if that dont work there still is the pitch fork.

Harryaroo · Dec 4, 2015

yes-- I've been getting more than my share of pitchfork time in lately and am trying to come up with a quicker way-- saw one of these bulldozer for fairly cheap....

Loved this little thing.

Currently can't afford something similar.

If it is cheap enough, try it. If it don't work out, sell it at a profit.

Tracks don't do well on concrete in the long run. Smaller skid loaders are better, I saw a very small older case 1800 something single cylinder, looked good and failed to bring 500.00.

for concrete you get the street pads they work well on it,

You can get the DIY kjt for $4K . Hard to beat that for a new machine.

Like Nutty stated, the rubber street pads would be needed for on concrete work. Otherwise you will just spin around.

I use an OMC Mustang 310 to clean my barn - will fit thu a 36" doorway. As will a Case 1816 or 1818, New Holland L120, or a gehl 1640E.

Toro makes a couple models of compact loader that are similar size. You could rent one to try out.

Don't know where you're at, but that dozer must be really cheap if you can't afford a used 1816 Case, which would be 10 times handier.
