moe1965 706 #2 Posted November 6 Depending on how used it is you should check out the drive chain and the sprockets readjust if necessary and grease it up 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 33,159 #4 Posted November 6 to the If you don't have them, download the manuals for your tractor and blower. Make sure you get the blower belt routed correctly and on the correct PTO pulley. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
