Hello every body ! New guy from Iowa !!

Thanks for the welcome !!! Here are a few pics of the snow blower. This was a fairly simple conversion,, I had to change the ratio of the drive because in the original set up the blower drove from the front of the engine at around 3500 RPM. My tractor drives from the trans-axle at 2000Rpm. The pulley closest to the blower housing was changed from a 10" to a 6" I believe. The pulley closest to the blower housing drives the snow blower,, the pulley closest to the tractor is free wheeling to drive the double pulley to achieve the reduction. The blower wants to run right at 1000 Rpm and I am very close to that. The mount was pretty straight forward. I made the quick-tach bracket to fit the front of the tractor and then modified the mount arms to fit my bracket. Welded in a cross member to attach the hydraulic cylinder to the blower and the other end to my bracket. Altho the picture shows a hydraulic cylinder on the spout swivel it blew a seal last winter and was changed to an electric actuater. I will try to find pics of the belly blade and 3 point kwik hitch.
