3.4 Tractor Horsepower
The horsepower required to operate the implement depends on several operating factors including terrain
condition, operator experience, condition of the implement and tractor, and other factors. The recommended
tractor HP for the snow blower SDX-102 is 85-140 HP. Operating the implement with a larger tractor will greatly
increase the risk of damaging the implement.
3.5 3-Point Hitch
The tractor 3-point hitch must be rated to lift at least
1675 lbs (760 kg.) when attaching a SDX-102.
The snow blower can attach to tractor’s with a 3-pt.
hitch frame. The snow blower comes with 3-pt.
lower pins CAT 2-3 bushing and CAT 2 top pin.
Refer to the tractor operator’s manual for the
category of the tractor used. If the hitch does not
conform to ASABE dimensions, the implement may
not fit or raise properly. Consult an authorized
dealer for possible modification procedures to
mount nonconforming hitches.
Use the correct hitch pins for the hitch being used.
3.6 Tractor Hydraulics
To be able to operate the hydraulic chute rotator, rotating drum, and chute deflector, the tractor requires 3
remote outlets. The hydraulic chute rotator, drum, and deflector allow you to blow snow at different angles. Be
particularly careful when rotating the chute or drum at different angles. Be sure there are no bystanders or
animals within 200ft. in the direction you are blowing snow. The chute deflector allows you to have a high shoot
out of snow depending on where and what direction is needed. The drum allows you to direct the snow to
either side of the machine as well.
Never crawl under a raised Implement supported solely by the Tractor 3-Point hitch.
Release of the control lever or mechanical failure will result in the Implement falling and
possible injury or death. Always securely block up the Implement before crawling
underneath to perform repairs and service.
(S3PT-19)
A rear Implement can fall if not properly supported. Always use the stand on the front hitch
(if equipped) or block up securely to prevent falling and possible crushing injury and/or
other injury from holding or lifting heavy components. Use the stand to stabilize the
implement during storage.
(S3PT-3)
3.7 Front End Weight
A minimum of 20% total tractor weight must be maintained on the tractor front end at all times. Front end
weight is critical to maintain steering control and to prevent the tractor from rearing up while driving. If the
front end is too light, add weight until a minimum of 20% total weight is reached on the front tires. Front
weights and weight carriers can be purchased through an authorized tractor dealership.
