Hi all,
This is kind of off topic of AC, but tractor related. When I got my WD last fall, part of the package deal was that I could have the pull behind snow blower, if I wanted it. We didn't have room on the trailer, and quite honestly, at the time I didn't know if I really wanted it or not. In the spring we plan to make another tip out there to get some other things, and probably will get the snowblower too.
That is where you all come in. I have some questions about these blowers. First off, what kind of blowers are they in the first place? It's orange, but I'm fairly sure AC never made them, did they? We didn't see any tag or ID of any kind on it. I didn't get a picture unfortunately, so I'll do my best to discribe it (since I'm also not having any luck finding a pic of a similar one on line)
It is a rear atached blower. It hooks to the after market 3 point. It is powered by the PTO from a shaft directly to the propeller which shoots the snow. There are NO impellers that push the snow to the propeller. The snow is just funneled to the propeller from the blades on each side, which v back to the propeller housing. There is a shoot to throw the snow which is adjustable from a crank handle to throw the snow in either direction. It is approxamately the width of the rear tires of the WD. If I had a pic, I could tell you that is what it looked like, anyone have one?
Does anyone have any info on blowers like this? What is it, how do they work? Is it worth draging home? Etc.... Any and all info is appreciated. There was one for sale on YTmag a month or so ago, I should have saved the pic to show you all what I am talking about.
Thanks in advance, I'll keep looking for a pic.....

Post #7 has a pic of one similar to the one I'm talking about. Only I don't think there was a plate on top between the side blades, and the shoot was narrower I believe. But this is the closest I've been able to find so far. I'll have to go read what they wrote, maybe I'll learn something.... Thanks again Claus! ------------- Jacob Swanson 1920 6-12; 1925,1926 20-35 longfenders; 1925,1926 15-25's; 1927,1929 20-35 shortfenders; C; B's; IB; WC's; WD; WD45 |

 I have an Erskine just like the one pictured on the CA. Its on my WD45 . If you can drive through the snow it will blow it well into the trees. yesterday was the first time I've been unable to keep the drive clean with it. We got 5 inches of snow @ 34 degrees. so it's real wet and plugs the V. My 2 Stage also Plugged with the very wet snow. I have used ne behind a Farmall H and the extra power of the WD45 makes a huge differance.

Well its spring, and last weekend I went and helped Dad load up the disc that came with Wayne last fall. So its back in WI now, waiting for me to come home this next weekend and put it back together. It's a 16' I believe John Deere. It has KK prefix casting numbers, does that make it a JD? Here are some pics:    And here is the snowblower I was telling you about:    We were not able to find any tags or markings to ID what it is. We think it has been modified several times, still not sure if it's worth fixing or not. Any help or suggestions are welcome! ------------- Jacob Swanson 1920 6-12; 1925,1926 20-35 longfenders; 1925,1926 15-25's; 1927,1929 20-35 shortfenders; C; B's; IB; WC's; WD; WD45 |
