I got a XUV835M and looking into grabbing a Powertach plow.
I got a long driveway and I gotta clear paths to my sheds out back, maybe do a little grading here and there..
Does the Powertach plow have a float option? Or is it something I have to add later on?
I dont want to wreck my yard when Im plowing.. epsecially on days when the ground is soft.
So I need one that will ride the ground, not dig in.
Any ideas?

The Powertach for the XUV835M has a built-in float feature that actually allows the blade to follow the ground to prevent digging which is I believe what you're aiming for. Just make sure to use it correctly and get some blade shoes for added protection!

It can have a float option but it really depends on your mount and hydraulics. @cantaloupesarefun already said the essentials :)

Absolutely! The Powertach plow comes with a float mode. All you need to do is lock the lever forward, and it'll glide along the ground. If you're concerned about soft spots, I'd recommend adding plow shoes as well. I use a similar setup, and it really helps a lot.

For a visual demonstration of how float mode works on similar equipment, you might find this video helpful:
 
Thanks for sharing that video. It's great to hear that the Powertach has a float mode. Adding plow shoes seems like a really clever idea for softer ground.
