ATTACHING
SNOW THROWER
TO TRACTOR
NOTE: An additional person's help may be required to
mount the snow thrower to the front of the tractor.
STEP 22: (SEE FIGURE 22)
•
Place the tractor and snow thrower on a flat, level
surface so that the tractor can be rolled forward to
attach the snow thrower.
Remove the Attachment Pin from the snow thrower.
Extend the auger belt out behind the snow thrower,
making sure the belt is still looped over the top of
the large drive pulley and underneath the two idler
pulleys. The "V" side of the belt must be seated in the
grooves of all three pulleys.
Roll the tractor up behind the snow thrower, centering
it between the snow thrower's mounting plates.
Raise the rear of the snow thrower by lifting up on
the lift handle until the notches in the mounting plates
align with the shoulder bolts in the tractor's side
plates. Guide the bolts into the notches.
To ease the assembly of the auger drive belt, delay
the installation of the attachment pin until you have
assembled the belt as instructed in steps 24 and 25.

pulley. The "V" side of the belt must mate with the
grooves of the pulleys.
