    Snowblower Front Mount

    That LARUE reminds me of an OSKOSH I saw at MT. HOOD, Or., years ago at the ski lodge. Had 4 augers about 16ft. tall total. The lodge had tunnel to get in, as the snow pack was so high. So beautiful. I'm also into old trains. Steam Locomotive called a "Cab-Forward". Engineers were in front of...

    Snowblower Front Mount

    My slightly used B2650 luck has it, comes with the option 3rd front Hyd. control on the loader. I'll use that to control the blower chute rotation, as the Ford blower does have the Hyd. cyl. mounted on the chute originally, I never used. Now I see you can get electrical linear actuator kits for...

    Snowblower Front Mount

    You are correct. Bercomac & others. If you have the Hydrostatic flow, then that will cut the cost for the front mount vs. engine powered. As I had 2 new spare 20 HP Honda's ( I bought from New Bedford Welding Supply, with a used Thermal Arc Welder generator as aux. storm power for my shop )...

    Snowblower Front Mount

    The Ford does have built in dual shear bolts. There are Electric Clutches I have seen as options, for the new gas powered front mount snow blowers, on the market. One safety I need to do is a remote shut off for that Honda motor, instead of a clutch, when I re-config. for the Kubota. See if I...

    Snowblower Front Mount

    Turnbuckles were to level the blower and provide the anchor point to the loader arms. Never got around to hook up the Ford bucket hyd. to run the chute. Had a blizzard on the way at the time. Blower is 60 in. wide. Used Martin Dual Chain Sprockets on the PTO, and had to custom taper machine and...

    Hi Folks ; I just purchased a used B2650HSDC 2019 with 218 hrs.. Will arrive next week. Replacing my old Blue '86 Ford 1910. Got tired of the cold and wet, never got around to make the canopy, and buy a soft cab. Bought a used Ford PTO Snow Blower many years ago. First winter took off the...

    Thanks so much for the reply on the height and pic. When mine arrives next week, need to verify it has the oem step. If it is, I'll get that used one on E-Bay, and double up. Asking $60. Pretty dirty, will offer $35. New are $105. Can't wait for an enclosed cab finally. Will see if I can...
