SET-UP ASSEMBLY
30. Adjust the push arm bolting location to
compensate for the frame height. Pick the
position that allows the back of the snowblower to
be nearly vertical when resting on the ground.
The snowblower can be rolled forward slightly to
allow for better cutting edge scraping, or it can be
rolled back slightly to scrape less.
IMPORTANT: It is important to maximize lift
height, while still allowing the front frame to be
raised high enough to drive into it when hitching it
to your tractor.
IMPORTANT: When raising the snowblower,
make sure the driveline can telescope without any
interference.
IMPORTANT: Turn the steering wheel full left and
right while watching for any interference between
the tires and frame or snowblower.
IMPORTANT: Check and retighten all frame and
hitch bracket clamping bolts after first hour of
operation.
NOTE:
“Frame height” refers to the distance
between the bottom of the front frame and the
ground.
NOTE: If extreme impacts are expected, holes
can be drilled through both tube frames where
they overlap, and bolts and lock nuts can be
installed to help prevent slippage.
31. Make sure all bolts, set screws, and cable ties are
tight. The initial setup of the snowblower is now
complete. Refer to the “Mounting Instructions”
and “Operating Instructions” sections of this
manual for proper mounting and operating
techniques.
