ALLIED SNOWBLOWER
This manual is for both 50" and 60" snowblowers. When ordering parts, specify model number and serial number. Both snowblowers are the push type and will mount to a tractor with a category 1 three-point hitch or a category 1 Quick Hitch and 540 rpm PTO. Both snowblowers come with a hand crank chute control as standard. A hydraulic control is available as an option at extra cost. There is a shear bolt on the auger and on the PTO shaft to protect the machine from damage if a large object is picked up. Any smaller objects in the snow will be thrown with it and could cause serious injury. Do not let anyone stand behind the tractor in the area of the discharged snow.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Do not operate the blower in the fully raised position. The three-point hitch on some tractors raises high enough to cause the PTO shaft to bind. This can cause damage to the PTO shaft and/or to the hitch and pins. NOTE: PTO shaft angle should not exceed 20° for optimum performance and life. Damage may occur to PTO and/or snowblower if angle becomes more extreme.
2. Depth of cut can be partially controlled by tilting the blower forward or backward. Adjust the top link of the tractor hitch so the snowblower is just slightly tilted back when resting on the ground. ALERT: Excessive backward tilt may cause the “U” joints to flutter resulting in PTO shear bolt failure.
3. Adjust the lower link sway chains or blocks on the tractor to restrict side movement of the blower when operating
4. Run the blower at low rpm to check operation before blowing snow.
5. The snowblower has two shear bolts to protect the tractor and blower in case a large object enters the blower. PTO shear bolts – 50” - one 3/8" x 1" (gr.8),
60” - two - 5/16" x 1" (gr. 8), auger shear bolt - 1/4" x 1" (gr. 2). Shear bolts
should be fastened with a lock nut or two jam nuts. These bolts must be kept tight to prevent wear of the bolt and bolt holes.
6. Never run PTO shaft at over 600 rpm.
7. Chain Tension: Slack on the lower side of the chain should be 3/8 to ½”.
8. Lubrication:
a) The spout clamps and rings should be periodically lubricated with gun
grease. b) PTO shaft universal joints and square shaft slide should be greased daily. c) PTO shear yoke should be greased before using the blower for the first
time. d) Regularly oiling the chain will significantly increase the life of the chain. e) Gearbox is open type and need not be greased or lubricated. f) Hydraulic spout option – grease the swivel arm.
9. Periodically check all bolts for tightness. The bolt holding on the fan and the
bearing bolts are of particular importance.
10. DANGER: Always stop blower for servicing or unplugging. The PTO
should be disengaged before dismounting from the tractor.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – cont’d.
11. CAUTION: Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are
securely attached as per instructions every time you are preparing to use the snowblower.
12 When replacing bearings or tightening a loose bearing collar, always
tighten collar in the direction of shaft rotation using a center punch or a similar tool.
13. Shear Sprocket: The shear sprocket (#43) should be checked at the beginning
of every season to make sure it will spin freely. With time the sprocket plate could corrode and seize which will not allow the shear bolt to break if something jams in the snowblower auger. Clean to loosen if necessary.

50" & 60" SNOWBLOWER ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Mount the discharge spout (#2) using the spout clamp (#3) bolted to the spout
ring on the snowblower. Lubricate the spout ring and clamp. NOTE: A hydraulic cylinder and hose kit to control the spout deflector is available as an option.
2. Hitch Assembly: With right and left hitch tubes (#5 & #6) turned as shown in
drawing, slide them into the sleeves welded to the main body. These tubes are adjustable to four different positions. The correct position for each individual tractor will be determined when mounting the snowblower on the tractor. These tubes are connected to the snowblower with a 3/4" x 3 ¼” pin (#11) and a hairpin clip (#12). Bolt the left (#84) and the right (#85) hitch arms to the outside of the clevises on the hitch tubes using the lift pins (#9). NOTE: Pins should be turned to the outside. Do not tighten any hardware until assembly is complete. Join the top of the hitch arms by bolting a 1” O.D. x 2 ¼” spacer (#4) between the top plates using a ¾” x 4” bolt and lock nut through the lower outside holes. Bolt the hitch top bar (#86) between the same plates using the same bolt through the welded tube on the bar. Use the inside holes on the top plates for the top bar. The other end of the hitch top bar bolts to the top of the blower fan housing with a ½” x 1 ¾” hex bolt, lock washer and hex nut. Use the same hole position as the hitch tubes. Tighten all hardware.
A category 1 top link pin (#8) is fitted in the top holes of the hitch arm plates. This pin is used for standard three-point hitch only. The bushing in the lower holes is used for the quick hitch.
3. Hand Crank Assembly: (Standard)
a) Bolt the crank mounting bracket (#16) to the top of the hitch using 3/8" x 1 ¼” hex bolts, lock washers and hex nuts.
b) Insert the crank tube (#15) through the mount and through the bracket
welded to the main housing. Lock the crank in place using a washer and
roll pin on each side of the bracket. c) Thread the cable (#17) through the hole in the crank tube to even lengths
and wrap around the tube to each side of the hole four turns in opposite
directions. d) With the spout turned forward, fasten the cable to the bracket welded to
the bottom of the spout using a ¼” cable clamp (#70).

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS – cont’d.
4. Hydraulic Control Assembly: (option) a) Bolt the hydraulic swivel assembly (#21) to the back of the fan housing on
the left side using ½” x 1 ¼” hex bolts, lock washers and hex nuts. b) Bolt the cylinder mounting bracket (#23) to the back of the fan housing on
the right side using the same size hex bolts. c) Turn the spout forward and the center of the swivel arm in line with the
spout center. With the spout and swivel arm in this position, wrap the
cable (#22) around the spout and clamp to both ends of the swivel arm
and to the bracket welded to the bottom of the spout using 3/16" cable
clamps (#20). d) Use a standard 8" stroke cylinder (20 1/4" min., 28 1/4" max. pin centers).
5. Mounting Blower on Tractor:
a) Mount the blower on a tractor with a category 1 hitch.
b) Using tape or a bright colored marking pen, mark on the outer shield the
position where the shaft is completely pushed together and the position
where you have a 4" overlap. Watch these marks when moving the
blower through all possible operating angles to see that the PTO shaft
stays within this range. c) With the engine on the tractor shut off, attach the PTO shaft. The tractor
end has a standard 6-spline end with a spring loaded locking collar. The
snowblower end has a clamp-style yoke with a ¼” keyway. Slide the yoke
onto the gearbox shaft with a ¼” key supplied. Lock the yoke in place with
the ½” x 3” hex bolt and lock nut fitted through the groove in the gearbox
shaft. After tightening the bolt, insert and tighten the 3/8” socket set screw
supplied.
CAUTION: Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft
are securely attached every time the snowblower is used. This should
always be done with the tractor engine off. d) Check that the PTO shaft does not bottom or separate with the blower in
the extreme high and low positions. Check to see which of the four
different hitch positions will allow you to keep about a 4" minimum overlap
on the PTO shields without bottoming out. This position varies between
different tractor models because of the different lengths of the three-point
arms. If the PTO shaft is still too long with the hitch fully extended, the
PTO shaft will have to be cut shorter. Check for free movement of all
parts in various raised positions; particularly the PTO shaft.
6. PTO Shield:
All snowblowers manufactured for the 1990 production and up are
supplied with a PTO shield. The PTO shield (#65) bolts to the gearbox
assembly using ¼” x ¾” hex bolts. Hook one end of the spring (#66) in
the hole in the back edge of the PTO shield and the other end of the
spring in the hole punched in the edge of the gearbox assembly.
CAUTION: Do not run the snowblower without the PTO shield in
place.
