 Topic: AC 616 snowblower
Posted: 31 Jul 2019 at 9:50am |
|
Hello all I have recently purchased an AC616. I’ve read that there are several snowblowers that will fit it and I have come across several simplicity models but I am unaware which exact model will fit it. I’ve tried researching the forum but have been unable due to my lack of experience searching old posts. I am guessing this question is beating a dead horse. But any help would still be appreciated I just don’t want to buy a model that will not fit or will need a bunch of modifications. Thank you all again !

Is the 616 anything like the 917 ? I have a snow thrower for my 917, it works very well.

Mine is considered a lawn tractor not a garden tractor (no rear pto/3 point) but has the ability to throw snow. They look similar, apparently about the same weight . Different series I guess.

Try simpletractors.com They have nice cross reference tables for AC vs Simplicity models

The snowblowers for the 616-720 Tractors are HUGE. Twice the size of a 700 or 900 series blower unit. And, they are heavy dudes to! My brother and I lifted one into the back of my Astro Van. The two of us were talking soprano after that maneuver! LOL! Steve@B&B

Steve is correct, very heavy. I store mine on dolly’s to move it around and to aid when I install it. Will throw dry snow 40’. Wheel weights or chains or both are required to use it. Gets the job done for sure.
