BX 25 snowblower chute crank linkage pics???

[Brian]

does anyone have some photos of the linkage and mounts for changing chute direction. I bought a blower and linkage but no manual is with it. i haven't seen another BX 25 with a blower on it so don't know exactly where and how the brackets mount for the "steering" linkage for the blower chute.

Brian, are you talking about the front mount BX2750 blower? If so, I can probaby help you out. I have one on a BX23, but the mounting for the hand crank bracket should be the same on the BX25. It mounts to the side of the joy stick. You remove two of the bolts that hold the cover on, place the bracket up against the cover and put the bolts back in. I can get you a pictue if needed. Let me know.

Brian, here's the pics I promised. If this is not what you are looking for, then let me know what pics you would like. I don't have the blower on the tractor right now, but this should get you going. You can see how the bracket bolts onto the joy stick valve assembly using two of the existing bolts. Then the telescoping rod goes down through the hole and into the bottom half of the rod that is attached to the blower. The two halves are then held together with a hair pin.
Oh, one other thing. On the BX22 and 23, the holes in the bracket where not spaced properly and I had to re-drill one of the holes. Hopefully, by the time they got to the BX24 or 25, they have that corrected.

Thnaks but the BX 25 hydraulic control assembly is different. I appreciate the effort. I have a newer style piece the mechanic at my Kubota dealer gave me. When I am done I will psot a pic.

Yeah, I assumed you were talking about the manual chute control. I didn't realize you had the hyd. option. I would be interested in seeing some pics when you get it installed. Good luck.

 

[Brian]

No, wrong choice of words on my part. The chute control inst hydraulic. The part the dealer gave me mounts to the control lever for the FEL. It is a simple piece that the crank goes through.
I meant to say that your hydraulic control tower is different than a BX25. And that the support you show , while similar to what I got, can mount there where you have it because there is no support there.

a picture I found, but I would relocate it off the loader handle if it was mine

Babyfat
that's the ticket. the mech at my dlr gave me the same. I will be installing tomorrow and trying out soon.
Thansk to all of you for your help.

Now, next year i want to go with a hydraulic unit. who has a plan or photos of one they made. source for parts to make up cheap???

I have a factory hydraulic rotation with electric deflection on my BX 24 snowblower. As soon as I can figure out how to post pictures I'll post them for you.

It is great having a leaver or switch to operate.

Here are a few pictures with the manual crank and 1 with a gear motor I attached for electrical chute rotation

 

[Brian]

I bought my unit used so don't have the manual. Waiting for one I ordered.

Just got it all hooked up today. I had to change the shaft on the quick hitch but other than that it went together fine. Of course i had to take off the grill guard.
who can look up and tell me RPM I should be running at when I blow snow?

 

[Babyfat]

Run it a full thottle Brian, always when pto in engaged run at full rpm

 

[cfreema]

does anyone have the part number for the bracket that mounts to the FEL lever to hold the manual chute rotation rod?

JJ looks like a nice build I am looking to do the same thing hopefully before the winter is done. What did you wire into? I see that my BX1500 was prewired from the factory so that you had the option to buy an electric shoot rotator and an electric piston to control the angle of the chute. Did you wire directly into the factory harness or did you tap off of somewhere else?
