PROBLEM: HYDRAULIC CHUTE ROTATION IS SLOW OR DOESN'T TURN
When activating the chute rotation, it turns very slowly or not at all.
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury
always wear safety glasses while doing the
instructions below.
SOLUTION:
1. Check if the tractor valve works well. Test
it by plugging another piece of equipment
to the valve. If it does not work well, refer
to the appropriate operator's manual.
2. Figure 12: Check if the chute itself rotates
well. To do so, remove the M6 x 1.00 x
10 mm serrated flange bolt (item 7) and
the motor gear (item 6) attached to the
motor shaft (item 4) and check if the chute
rotates well in both directions by turning it
by hand. If it does not rotate well, correct
the problem by checking if there is some
excess wear or debris locked between
components.
3. Figure 12: Check if there is residue in the
,
hydraulic circuit. To do so, first verify if the chute
rotates well in one direction. If so, remove the
1/4’’NC x 1’’ bolt (item 5), the 1/4" lockwasher
(item 4), the 1/4" flat washer (item 3)and the motor
gear (item 2) attached to the motor shaft (item 1)
and activate the rotation in the direction the motor
turns well for approximately 1 minute to evacuate
the residues. Then rotate the chute in the direction
it did not turn well and check if the problem is
resolved. - If not or if the chute does not rotate
well in either direction, disconnect the motor
hoses, remove the two flow restrictors (item 5)
attached to the motor inputs (item 2) and inspect
the holes of the two flow restrictors carefully.
Remove the residues if needed. If no residue is
present, disconnect hoses and clean them with
compressed air. - If the problem persists, check if
there is residue inside the motor (item 1). Clean
with compressed air the inside of the two motor
inputs. You can also manually turn the motor
shaft in both directions while shooting
compressed air.
Figure 12
IMPORTANT
always make sure to install the pl ugs and caps
on the hoses and tractor valve connectors.
This will prevent contamination of the
hydraulic circuit and obstruction of the flow
restrictor hole.

IMPORTANT:
A proper initial installation will give you years of
satisfactory service on your equipment. Please
read carefully following instructions that have
been specially included to help you and ensure
you are satisfied with your purcha se.
WARNING
Unfortunately, snowblowers will be faced
with forgotten or hidden objects under the
snow, such as : chain, tires, stones, pieces
of wood, etc. In spite of all our efforts,
machines are not built to resist all those
conditions.
How to Determine Driveline Angles
IMPORTANT: To obtain the proper universal
joint angles, it is recommended to adjust the
three point hitch at the furthest point from the
tractor recommended by the manufacturer
Angles of Driveline Joints Too Larg e
Avoid
Danger: Tractors Too Big
It is dangerous to use a tractor that is too big an d
powerful. The tractor will always be able to
overload the blower, even if the machine is
already at maximum capacity. Furthermore,
tractors being very high, the driveline angles will
be excessive which means the universal joints
will be very vulnerable and the life of the driveline
will be dramatically reduced.
The universal joint angle is directly related with
the life of driveline. In order to reduce the angle, it
is necessary to increase the distance between
the snowblower and the t racto r.
Reasonable Angles of Driveline Joints
Acceptable
OM 0410SB-A
26
Page 29
ASSEMBLY
Unequal Angles at Driveline Joints
Avoid
Angles at Each End of Driveline
A popular habit is to change the snowblower
angle in order to obtain a better scraping effect.
This practice can become harmful to the
driveline since the angle at each end is
unequal. This results in a fan speed variation as
well as a drastic increase of load on cross and
bearings. To be avoided: It is recommended to
always keep tractor driveline and snowblower
input shaft parallel.
Equal Angles at Driveline Joints
Recommended
Determining Driveline Length
IMPORTANT
make sure the driveline is not too long. At
working position, the two half drivelines must
intersect each other sufficiently to insure
maximum efficiency but there must not be any
interference.
1. To determine the "L" length for your tractor
model first find the "X" factor (figure 22) by
measuring the horizontal distance between
the end of the tractor's drive shaft and the
end of the snowblower's driven shaft when
the snowblower is in transport position as
shown on figure.
2. Choose in the table below the "Y" factor
according to the tractor category an d deduct
that number from "X" (figure 22) to determine
"L" (figure 23) which is the center-to-center
length between the universal joints.

OPERATION
GENERAL PREPARATION
1. Read the operator’s manual carefully before
using the tractor and snowblower. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls and
proper use of the equipment. Know how to
stop the unit and disengage the controls
quickly.
2. Make sure the snowblower is clear of snow
before engaging the driveline.
5. Check the t wo shear bolts, one on the driving
shaft, and the one on the PTO, for proper
tightness.
6. Adjust so that the snowblower skid shoes run
level.
7. Wear adequate winter outer garments while
operating equipment.
OPERATING CONTROLS
Work and Travel Speed
Working ground speed will depend on the depth
and density of the snow to be cleared. Normally,
ground speed will range from 4 to 7 MPH for light ,
dry snowfalls 3 to 6 inches, and 1 t o 3 MPH for
heavy, wet or drifted snow. To transport,
disengage the drive shaft and raise the
snowblower to full transpor t he ight.
Raising and Lowering the Snowblower
Move the three point lever on right hand side of
seat down or forward to lower, and up or rearward
to raise.
ADJUSTMENTS
Chain Tension Adjustment
(Figure 29)
The premature wear of the chain may be caused by
tension being too tight. It is therefore import ant not to
tighten chain to its maximum.
• To adjust the tension on the drive chain, loosen the
bolt (item 1), securing the idler sprocket to the
snowblower housing.
• To tighten the chain, lower the bolt. Leave
approximately 1/8" deflection in one span of the
chain. Retighten securely the bolt holding the idl er
sprocket.
Skid Shoe Adjustment
(Figure 29)
Adjust the skid shoes so that the snowblower runs
level and according to the surface conditions so that
stones are not thrown with the snow .
Adjust both skid shoes to the same height to keep the
cutting edge level and adjust upwards for smooth
surfaces.
Loosen skid shoe bolts (item 2) and adjust according
to instructions below, and securely tighten bolts:
Clearance between cutting edge and surface:
• Paved surface: Insert bolts in lower hole.
• Uneven or gravel surface: Insert bolts according to
distance needed: 1/2" - middle hole
1" - upper hole
WARNING
To avoid personal injury, be sure the tractor
engine is off, the drive shaft disengaged, and
all movement has stopped before making any
adjustments.

OPERATION
SNOW REMOVAL METHODS
When removing snow, do not use the sno wblower as a dozer blade to push snow. Let the snowblower
work its way through deep drifts. If the speed of your tractor is too fast, the snowblower may become
overloaded and clog. For best results, raise the snowblower and remove a top layer of snow. A second
pass with the snowblower will remove the remaining snow.
IMPORTANT
: Use full RPM power when removing wet, sticky snow. Low RPM power wil l tend to clog the
chute.
WARNING
Do not use hands or feet to unclog chute. Do not attempt to clear clogged chute of snow while tractor
engine is running. If the chute clogs, disengage the drive shaft, shut off the tractor engine, remove the
ignition key, wait for all movement to stop, and then clear the snow from the chute.
A definite pattern of operation is required to thoroughly clean the snow area. These patterns will avoid
throwing snow in unwanted places as well as eliminating a second removal of snow
Where it is possible to throw the snow to the left
and right (above), as on a long driveway, it is
advantageous to start in the middle. Plow from
one end to the other, throwing snow to both sides
without changing the direction of the discharge
guide
OM 0410SB-A
If the snow can only be thrown to one side of the
driveway or sidewalk (above), start on the opposite
side. At the end of the first pass, rotate the
discharge guide 180 degrees for the ret urn pass.
At the end of each succeeding pass, rotate the
discharge guide 180 degrees to mai ntain direction
of throw in the same area.
