Picked up a snow thrower and plow

[Raider 10 0]

I picked up a plow, snowthrower, extra set of wheels w/ tires, and a set of chains. A few weeks ago I mounted a set of ag tires on the rims that I had so it's good to have a set of turf tires on the rim too.

Now i just have to see if these attachments will fit the Raider 10.

The dozer blade is correct, but the snow thrower isn't.

The good news is that the blower is probably a 1962 ST-3072 and will work on the front-engined round hood models such as the 701/502/552/702/etc., etc.

Depending on your location, you might be able to trade it for the correct thrower for your Raider.

Thanks Terry

What modifications do you think I could make to get it to fit? Is it a matter of the width of the mounting brackets? Hmmm.

I'm in NW NJ.

I don't recommend "hacking" that one up. (but do what you have to do, of course.)

Your best bet would be to find the correct newer blower that doesn't have the "reverser gears" and the chain drive. (used to make the auger turn the correct direction)

In its current form, the old thrower would turn way too fast using the large PTO pulley on your tractor engine. They were made to run off of a 2.5" engine pulley.

Ok, so it is a bit more involved. Anyone in or near NW NJ wanna do a swap?

Well, Like you said it is good news with the blade.

I apologize for the shameless plug but I have this for sale.

I'm not sure what year your Raider is but this might work. I know that there was an adapter for the 70's tractors so they could accept the Attach-a-Matic stuff. I'm hoping someone on here can tell us for sure.

I wouldnt be interested in a trade tho.

Just an option.

TT, would mine work or not? Just curious as it'll be on e-bay or craigslist next week and I'm sure someone will ask.

Yeah Mike..... it would work - it just wouldn't be a direct fit though.

It can actually be used on any "standard" garden tractor with the large PTO pulley. (would need a front hitch kit on anything before 1973 though)

Jim... you really dont think we'll actually get enough snow to use that thing do ya???

im not for sure we will get enough snow to even use the blade. :banghead:

The day care at the church has a little over an acre of parking lot and several hundred feet of sidewalk. The faster I can clear it the better. And if the snow covers the pavement, it has to be cleared. I just really want a blower for my 702, just for that once a year I can use it.

[KyBlue 655]

Was just givin you a hard time there Jim. For 500 bucks theres a sweepster on Ebay.. might work better, dont knwo about it fitting the 702 thou
