108” Allied Snowblower

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1.Hitch Assembly: With lower hitch tubes (#3) turned as shown in drawing, slide them into the sleeves welded to the main body. These tubes are adjustable to two different positions. The correct position for each individual tractor will be determined when mounting the snowblower on the tractor (see section 4). Start with the tubes pulled out to the last hole. These tubes are connected to the snowblower with a 1 ¼” x 5 ½” pin (#6) and a hair pin clip (#12). Slide the three- point hitch (#2) into the top sleeve on the snowblower body and hold in place with a 1" x 4 3/8" pin (#7) and a hair pin clip (#12). Bolt the bottom of the hitch to the ends of the hitch tubes using ½” x 2” hex bolts, lock washers, flat washers and hex nuts.

2.Spout Assembly: Mount the discharge spout (#64 or #73) using the spout clamp (#22) bolted to the spout ring on the snowblower. Lubricate the spout ring and clamp. Mount the 5” stroke cylinder (#68) on the spout as shown in the drawing. CAUTION: The ports in the cylinder are both 9/16" orb. Be sure that the

bottom edge of the deflectors are properly fitted in the guides before using the hydraulic control.

3.Hydraulic Spout Swivel:

a)Bolt the cylinder arm base (#17) to the bottom of the hitch using 5/8” x 2” hex bolt, lock washers and hex nuts. NOTE: There are three sets of holes. The hole used to bolt on this base must match with the holes used to assemble the hitch in the hitch tubes (i.e. 1st hole, second hole, etc.)

b)Mount the spout swivel (#16) onto the swivel pin welded to the back corner of the fan housing using a 1 ¼” i.d. flat washer (#31) and a ¼” x

1¾” cotter pin (#32)

c)Wrap cable (#18) around spout and clamp to the ends of the swivel using 3/8” cable clamps (#19).

d)With the spout turned forward and the swivel arm centered with the spout, clamp the cable to the spout cable anchor using another cable clamp. Ensure that the spout is not jammed and that there is no slack in the cable

e)Use a standard 8” stroke cylinder (20 ¼” min., 28 ½” max. pin centers).

f)NOTE: A Deflector hydraulic cylinder and hose kit is included as standard equipment on all 108” snowblowers.
