Re: THE 3240 thread
Here's some pics of the 3240 after clearing out my driveway. It was tough to get some action pics while clearing snow, but I got a couple!

Re: 1772 updates
After the fire house parking lot was cleared by a pick up with a plow, I got the 1772 out to do the clean up work around the cars that were parked there and finish up the parking area once everyone had moved. This thing did a fantastic job! Still need to replace the O-rings on the lines to the hydra...

Re: 3205 with a BIG snow blower!
I had to take a road trip to Ohio to find my snowblower for a reasonable price. Well worth the drive after cleaning up this mess!

Re: 3205 with a BIG snow blower!
Joe you will love that snowblower set up! So easy to mount and dismount! And it'll throw snow like this...
Paul, those are actually all metal tractors. After the Cyclops series, they went back to sheet metal before switching to plastic again...- Fri Jan 22, 2016 9:44 am

Re: New guy from upstate NY
Ah, Martinsburg isn't too far away either, about the same distance. I've actually been to that area quite a few times. Very close to the historic Harpers Ferry area. Always like visiting the Civil War areas like that.

Re: The Official Weather Thread!
Lucky me, I will wind up working most of the weekend, so snow will get moved when I get a chance! Oh the fun of being "essential personnel"! :lol: I know my driveway will get cleaned Friday night and Saturday morning, then not til late Saturday afternoon the way it looks now. But with this: Snowblow...

Re: 1772 updates
Finally got around to getting the Haban snow blade on the 1772. I didn't have the correct lift rod for the Haban, but when I was at Rich Patton's, he let me make an outline of the lift bar he had for one sitting there so I could see what I could get together for mine. I need to get better pics of it...

Depending on what I get accomplished between now and then, I'm hoping to have my 582, 1772 and 3240 all ready to go. Now I have some motivation since there's finally a date!!

Re: THE 3240 thread
Nope not yet. When it's been cold enough, no precipitation. When it's warm it rains it's a$$ off! I want at least one good snow darn it!

Re: THE 3240 thread
Putting the snowblower on is just as easy, with the exception of hooking up the pto shaft. All in all, it took me less than 5 minutes to switch from snowblade to snowblower!

Re: THE 3240 thread
This will wind up being a couple of different posts to show how the quick hitch on the 3240 works. Quite honestly, had I known how great these things were set up, I woulda bought one years ago! Both sides of the snow blade have a pin that slides out at the bottom, this allows the blade to be lifted ...

Re: 1772 updates
So to follow up on my post from the 3240 thread, here's a couple of goodies for the 1772. Since getting the snowblower for the 3240, obviously need to have a plow on something, so picked up this power angle Haban. All in all, it's in great shape overall, just need to fabricate a lift rod for it. Hab...

CC 582 carb question
Got a question about my 582 carb. A friend of mine helped me rebuild it (I'm not overly familiar with the Briggs carbs, thankfully he is!). Can someone provide me with the initial carb settings please?

Well, this should tease dag for a little bit! After a roughly 720 mile round trip, picked up a couple of goodies for the Cubs. Haven't had a chance to unload yet, but will get more pics when I get a chance!

I'm ready for the most part, but will be changing things up, as is usual! Seems like every year I wind up with different tractors with plows and blowers on them! lol Always gotta be ready in the Hereford Zone....it's amazing what a difference and handful of miles makes!

Re: Avatar, Avatar, Avatar!
I've said the same thing myself, as warm as it's been so far I am fully expecting to get rocked sometime in the next 2 months. We're going to pay for it! I'll hopefully have a snowblower for the 3240 at the end of the week, then looking to put a snowblade on the 1772. Either way, I will be able to m...

Re: 1772 updates
The other thing I was able to get done was clean up and repaint the exhaust and add an extension on. Definitely a lot better than being all rusty like it was before! All of the fluids and filters have been changed as well as both of the belts. Only a couple of things left to do. I have a pair of V61...
