Mounting Snowthrower

Note: The auger blades are shipped in identical position

for shipping purposes. Remove either left or right hand

shear bolt (refer to figure 18 on page 14) then turn one

auger 180” and reinstall shear bolt.

1. Park tractor on hard level surface.

2. Stop engine, lock parking brake and remove key.

3. Place

snowthrower’s shot pins (A, figure 7) in

released position (shot pins shown in figure 7 are in

locked position).

4. Make sure that PTO shaft is held in supporting rod.

This is done to prevent PTO shaft from interfering with

connection point and to help align the shaft for

hookup.

5. See figure 8. Check that pivot plate is locked into

straight forward position. Do not use any of the angle

positions with the snowthrower. To lock pivot plate,

push pin (A) down and turn until roll pin (B) fits

securely into groove.

snowthrower, stop tractor and lower hitch so it is

positioned just above the ground (i/4 to

i/2

inch off

the ground).

8. See figure 7. Slowly drive toward snowthrower until

pivot plate (B) makes contact with back plate (C) of

snowthrower.

9. Bring tractor to stop and slowly raise hitch until top lip

of pivot plate slides into groove of back plate and shot

pins (A) slide into place.

10.
