Snow thrower and fitment

Recommended Posts

Hossenfeffa

Bought this snow thrower for my 312-8. Previous owner said it fit a 312. Yes it will attach, but I have some reservations as to wether or not it will work. I don't think the idler pulley is stock, because most of the others I have seen are two idler set ups. ( [ B)] I can't figure out how  or where the big spring attaches so you can lift the snow thrower. © I do not believe the drive pulley is stock.(D) There is no ID tag anywhere on the unit, but I think it is a wheel horse blower. So, will this unit work on my 312-8? The tag is no longer readable, but I believe it is a 84 or 85 model.

Lift assist spring

 

The unit looks like a model 6-6212 plus the 6-9112 completing package.

The rear round bar looks too small a diameter to fit the front hitch properly and the frame it sits in would be too long. That bar went through a pair of holes in the front of the tractor frame.

The double pulley likely replaced a single groove pulley with a 5-1/2" OD for 3/4" shaft. Late models used a 7/8" shaft.

Idler should have one v-pulley and one flat pulley.

Thank you very much Garry, just the information I was looking for. I guess I will turn around  and sell it, I only have $75.00 in it. Do you know what model tractors this unit would fti?

I would say models prior to 1973 with horizontal engine crankshaft when the front quick hitch was added except GT-14, 953, 1054 and 1054A.

Should fit Raiders, Chargers, Broncos and Electros

Just a guess.
