21 AlphaBlower Operation and Maintenance Manual
Operation
Connecting The Snow Blower To
The Tractor’s Three-Point Hitch
(Cont’d)
NOTE: Tractor hitch type may require a
different procedure for pin installation. (See
the tractor’s operation manual for the correct
procedure.)
Exit the operator’s position. (See “Exiting The
Operator’s Position” on page 19.)
Close the tractor’s three-point hitch locking levers
(if equipped). (See the tractor’s operation manual
for the correct procedure.)
NOTE: Always use implement mounting pins
of adequate size and strength and a
retaining pin with a locking device.
Adjust the top link until it aligns with the snow
blower upper mount pin or mounting hole. (See
the tractor’s operation manual for the correct
procedure.)
PTO Installation
Install the PTO shaft from the blower to the tractor.
The angle of the PTO should not exceed 20
degrees. Angles greater than 20 degrees
result in excessive wear and reduce service
life of PTO shafts
1. If the blower is to be mounted both for front and
reversing, the PTO shaft should be adjusted
first where the PTO stubs have the shortest
spacing. Install the blower on the tractor. Do
not install the PTO shaft immediately. First
ensure that there is sufficient clearance
between the tractor wheel and the wing cutting
edges of the blower at all lifting heights,
including during active use of top links.
2. Locate the setting (at different lifting heights,
including during active use of top links.) at
which the PTO stub shafts have the shortest
spacing. Pull the PTO shaft apart and insert the
prongs on each PTO stub shaft so that the
pipes are situated next to each other.
3. Mark the pipe for cutting, calculate at least 4”
for end clearance.
4. Verify the longest distance between the PTO
stub shafts. If this is in a working position, the
telescoping tubes must continue to overlap
with half the pipe length.
5. When all of the above has been verified, the
axle can be cut. All pipes must be cut in the
same way.
6. File all cut edges that could inhibit sliding,
clean and lubricate the telescoping tubes using
grease.
7. Install the axle and check the adaptation
carefully and at all heights and movements.
8. Check if the same shaft can be used for front/
reversing. Note that the telescoping tubes
should overlap with at least half the pipe
length.
