Pin on snow blade on a QA tractor

Post by BigMike »

I sold my 126 with a pin on blade that had extensions. The buyer is saying it won’t fit. I have not messed with one of these for a long time, can someone take a stab at what could be the issue?

Wrong sub frame? If memory serves me it is supposed to look like this.

Ken, that is the correct blade. But I was under the impression that you could bolt on an earlier non-QA blade. Is that wrong?

I tried once, it wasn’t working, the bolts for the extension hit the qa mechanism on the frame. I gave up and found the right sub-frame.

I wonder if he's saying the blade won't fit on the undercarriage? Tell him he needs a big pry bar to get the "ears" or studs into the undercarriage holes. I have wrestled with that before. Tell him he needs to be a man about it!! Tell him.. let's go Brandon about it!
127, 1650, 1572, 1872, 2072 . A mower, blower and blade for each.

The sub frame is on, it was that way when I pulled it out of the shed.
I know what I would do.....steel, torch, welder....adapter, it fits now but it's an hour away now.

I have a second one of those someplace in the big pile. Probably near the bottom no doubt-
Anyway somebody hack sawed the pins off, I'd think that it would be fixable easy enough.
Why would someone do that? :?
