gary m 4 #1 Posted February 22, 2015 I'm trying to hook up a plow to a 310 wheel horse, the guy I bought it from I believe is missing a bracket from which the plow attach's to, I have a chain hanging down which is hooked to the raising handle, also on the bottom of the raising handle there is a 1/2 welded rod that has a hole for a cotter pin, which is not being used. The plow is bouncing on the driveway when your plowing, I need to raise the plow a little bit so it doesn't have all it's weight on the driveway, is there a bracket I'm missing? There is a welded bracket on the frame that's where I thing another bracket should be, please help me with this problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varosd 1,185 #2 Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) on the snowblade, you should have a silver looking piece of metal and the chain is attached to that with the forward most hole on the lift. Edited February 22, 2015 by varosd 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tim 97 #3 Posted February 22, 2015 is the plow attached to the rear bracket on the rear end? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,633 #4 Posted February 22, 2015 The plow (dozer blade) is anchored to the rear axle using this bracket. Once you have the bracket bolted to the axle, leave it there...no reason to take it off. If you need the axle bracket, send me an email... to this address: daveoman@windstream.net Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gary m 4 #5 Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Thanks everyone the plow is connected to the rear end of the wheel horse, I have a few pics to attach. The silver bracket is one I need, if anyone knows where I can buy it I would appreciate it. That silver bracket, does in go thru both holes on the bracket that's welded to the plow frame? Also the safety switch under seat I don't believe is working the way it should, when you sit on the seat the engine won't turn over, if you lean forward up off the seat it turns over. Are all 310 wheel horse single traction rear end, only one wheel spins when you push into a snow bank. One more question, how do you adjust the height of the plow when it lands on the ground?

Sparky-(Admin) 19,677 #6 Posted February 22, 2015 The plow is bouncing on the driveway when your plowing, I need to raise the plow a little bit so it doesn't have all it's weight on the driveway I don't think your 310 has dial-a-height (I could be wrong) so whether you use the silver solid link, or 3-4 links of chain instead you will still have to hold the lift lever to keep it off the driveway with all its weight.

squonk 39,132 #7 Posted February 22, 2015 I've never seen that silver bracket on any plow. I just attach that chain to the hole in the plow with a bolt and washers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clip 185 #8 Posted February 23, 2015 My plow had the short lift link, replaced the chain with a solid lift link I made and haven't looked back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 36,044 #9 Posted February 23, 2015 The plow is bouncing on the driveway when your plowing Sounds like your mounting and lift questions have been answered. The bouncing problem may be caused by the blade scraper edge being too perpendicular to the pavement. Try tilting the blade back by putting the top end of the blade flip springs in the top hole in the blade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
