1) 60-IN. FRONT BLADE:

Heavy-gauge steel construction; concave surface for good rolling action and efficient use of tractor horsepower

Blade has reinforcing angle behind front edge for strength and durability.

Large coil “breakaway” springs allow bottom of blade to be pushed back if solid object is struck.

Easy-on and easy-off; no tools required.

Blade angle is controlled from operator’s seat.

Adjustable skid shoes prevent wear to cutting edge.

Fits all John Deere 1400 and 1500 Series Front Mowers.

2) 47-IN. HEAVY-DUTY SNOW BLOWER:

Two-stage design with low-speed auger and high-speed discharge blower removes snow more efficiently.

Shear-bolt-protected auger and drive system.

16-inch diameter auger with sealed ball bearings.

Worm-gear drive with durable cast-iron housing.

Snowblower rides on a hydraulically controlled transport wheel for easy movement; retracts automatically when unit is lowered to the ground.

Reversible, replaceable cutting edge.

With hydraulic kit, chute can be angled hydraulically (up to 20 degrees).

Telescoping U-jointed driveshaft for easier hook-up.

Three-position skid shoes.

Drift knife.

Adjustable discharge chute.

Fits all John Deere 1400 and 1500 Series Front Mowers.

23×8.5 tires are recommended for use with this implement.

3) 60-IN. HEAVY-DUTY ROTARY BROOM:

Broad 60-inch working width, 24-inch diameter for good cleaning and long life.

32 alternating wafers of polypropylene and steel bristles provide flicking action for more thorough cleaning.

Mechanical drive; 5-way angling, straight ahead to 15 to 30 degrees left or right, hydraulic-angling kit available.

Hinge and spring on gearbox hood-shield for protection and easy access to PTO shafts.

Side-shield for the sprocket and chain drive holds front Quik-Tatch stand (an exclusive John Deere feature).

Hood deflector (a John Deere exclusive) helps keep debris ahead of broom and deflect thrown objects to the ground.

Fits all John Deere 1400 and 1500 Series Front Mowers.

4) 59-IN. SNOW BLOWER:

Snow blower can be installed and removed in minutes.

Standard drift knife cuts through deep drifts and provides a clean-cut snowbank.

Hydraulic chute angling allows operator to change direction of snow blowing with ease.

Driven by a live PTO, snow blower continues to operate at full speed even when changing traction ground speed.

Two-stage design of auger and high-speed blower provide aggressive snow-biting action through heavy or packed snow. Greater capacity than single-stage snow blower.

Adjustable deflector changes height and distance that snow can be blown.

Fits all John Deere 1400 and 1500 Series Front Mowers.
