8. Figure 16: Install the hose support
(item 1) on the three point upper hitch
bracket (item 2) right or left (right one is
recommended) using two 3/8''NC x
1 1/2'' bolts (item 3) and two 3/8"NC
nylon insert locknuts (item 4).
9. Figure 16: With thread sealant, install a
90° 3/8" NPT male x 1/4" NPT swivel
female elbow (item 5) in each cylinder
port (item 6). Direct elbows upward by
placing the lower one so that the hose
does not interfere with the upper hose.
10. Figure 17: NOT INCLUDED: With
thread sealant, install a 1/4" NPT female
x 1/2" NPT male reducer (item 2), a
male quick coupler (item 3) and a dust
cap (item 4) on each hose straight end
(item 1).
11. Figure 18: NOT INCLUDED: Connect
the two hoses (item 1) to the cylinder
elbows (item 2).
NOTE: The figure 18 is a suggested
presentation for hose routing. In that
way, it prevents the hoses from getting
clamped in the chute gear. However,
other ways are also possible. In any
way, make sure there is enough play in
the hoses for the chute to rotate freely
from left to right without forcing on
hoses.
12. Figure 18: NOT INCLUDED: Run
hoses on the snowblower with suitable
bend, staying away from sharp edges,
nor compromise
maintenance. Attach
support (item 3) with a hose clamp
(item 4), a 3/8''NC x 1 1/2'' bolt (item 5)
and a 3/8"NC nylon insert locknut
(item 6) in the hole that fits your needs.
13. NOT INCLUDED: Connect hoses to
tractor and make sure to raise and lower
the snowblower in extreme positions,
and check if hoses are long enough to
not interfere with any parts. Attach
hoses with nylon tie wrap to appropriate
places. Move the deflector from top to
bottom to verify operation.
