elixir20 1 #1 Posted July 9, 2010 Sorry for the double post (see main forum) about snowblower compatibility...basically will a model 6-6212 37" unit hookup properly with a 310-8 tractor? My local Toro dealer thinks not...the 6-6212 is an early 1970's vintage and they cannot cross it with a 1990 310-8. Help... Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #2 Posted July 18, 2010 I'm setting up the very same blower for a "C" series this weekend...Doesn't seem to be much of a modification to do it. I'll let you know how it goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #3 Posted July 19, 2010 Did some diggin' and found an old post by Eldon. Easy to follow instructions. Instead of grooves for "E" clips, I'm just welding the bar into the blower frame.

elixir20 1 #4 Posted July 29, 2010 oldredrider...How did you make out? I can't see the pictures on the link you attached. I'm still trying to figure out wether to buy this unit or not. I don't have any welding experience and little with fabrication... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #5 Posted July 30, 2010 It's really a piece of cake, even if you don't have a lot of fab experience. I just used scrap steel rod I had laying around for the front attach-a-matic, ground it down and welded it in with a wire welder. Lengthening the lift bar is cave man simple...Lowes or Home Depot has pipe to add length. The welding is not complicated and shouldn't cost much at all if you know somebody with a welder. If the blower is priced "right" and is in good shape, go for it. Come the first good snow, you'll be glad you did! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elixir20 1 #6 Posted July 30, 2010 Thanks for the encouragement. The unit is under $200 and seems to be in good shape. I'll give it a go... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
