Can I "float" the front mount snowblower?

Push the lever all the way forward untill it clicks,,no you didnt break it,, sometimes if it has not been used for a long time the detente might be very stiff but do it a few times and you will feel where it clicks that is the float it opens both ports so there is no flow up or down through the valve body. Hope that helps
Put the snowblower on or close to the ground, and then do as skeets said. If the loader or attached object is up in the air it will drop when you go past the detent.
If your blower is on skids you might have to wait until the ground freezes or you have a snowpack before you can run it in float without gouging the lawn or dirt. After that it is much better than trying to adjust the height all the time with the loader valve, at least if you have all the little hills and valleys that I do.

Calm yourself! I still needed to order my tractor and can't have snow without a blower!
