WD PTO change

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Good afternoon folks ! I am toying with the idea of mounting a snow blower on the front of my WD-45. Mounting is the easy part. Powering is the question, could I take PTO driver and remove and turn so it faces forward?? I have not removed mine as it is outside and I don't want to deal with the oil while it is cold out. This more likely to be a summer build as I will prob add my Greeson live hydraulic pump to the tractor for my outlets and such.If anyone has thought of this and checked into it please let me know or e-mail me at grandpasrepair@yahoo.com
Thank you all !!

	Andy, you'll get more/better results in the 'Farm Equipment' area. That said, I think an easier way to power it might be to use the belt pulley. There are, or were, V-belt pulleys available. Seems like I might have one or two around here? I'm sure others do too.
