pgiro 36 #1 Posted January 26, 2017 Can someone explain the purpose of this part that goes with the 44" snowblower? For the longest time I assumed that this part didn't belong to the snowblower but now I see it on the diagram. I don't seem to have the bracket guard (part # 40 in diagram) which it looks like it attaches to. I'm assuming this is all part of a belt guard assembly or something and probably not that necessary. Part # 31 is the part I'm asking about. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobert94 38 #2 Posted January 26, 2017 part 31 is the anti sway bracket it helps with keeping the blower more rigid to the tractor 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,369 #3 Posted January 26, 2017 It keeps that big hunk of steel straight between the frame rails and helps keep the attac-a-matic from wearing/wallowering out, when I bought my 2stage used the P.O. had misplaced the belt guards and kept #40 bolted to his 315-8 so I fabbed up my own frame mount,Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurt-NEPA 755 #6 Posted February 12, 2017 My two stage was missing that anti-sway bracket. So I made my own. Not too hard. But I can't really say it helped much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,369 #7 Posted February 12, 2017 I would say it makes more of difference if you have lots of rolling or unlevel surfaces where the blower would twist in the attac-a-matic and wallow it out vs nearly level hard (concrete asphalt) surfaces just my experiences, obviously it was designed with an intended purpose or it wouldn't have be part of the kit, Jeff.
