4.Mounting Blower on Tractor:

a)Mount the blower on a tractor with a category 2 or 3 standard hitch or a category 3 quick hitch. The hitch as two holes both at the top of the hitch and at each lift arm. When using a quick coupler, the pins must be in the inside set of holes. Use the outside set of holes with a standard three- point hitch. The lift arm pins also have a narrow spacing for category 2 and a wide spacing for category 3.

b)Using tape or a bright colored marking pen, mark on the outer shields of the PTO the position where the shaft is completely pushed together and the position where you have a 4" overlap. Watch these marks when moving the blower through all possible operating angles to see that the PTO shaft stays within this range. Slide the hitch in if necessary to keep the PTO shaft in this operating range. Do not forget to change the position of the cylinder arm (#17) by the same distance that you move the hitch.

c)With the engine on the tractor shut off, attach the PTO shaft. The tractor end has a 1 3/8" 21 spline end with a spring loaded locking collar. The snowblower end has a clamp style yoke with a 3/8” keyway. Slide the yoke onto the 1 ¾” jackshaft with the 3/8" key supplied. Lock the yoke in place with the 5/8" x 3 ¼” bolt and lock nut fitted through the groove in the gearbox shaft. After tightening the bolt, insert and tighten the 3/8" socket set screw supplied.

d)Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are securely attached every time the snowblower is used. This should always be done with the tractor engine off.
