44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower
The 44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower has the capacity to handle big snow removal jobs:
For model year 2016- X300 and manual lift X500 Select Series Tractors.
Two-stage auger and cast iron gearbox
The low-speed auger picks up snow and moves it toward the center of the machine into the high-speed rotor where it is blown out of the discharge chute.
A cast-iron gearbox provides speed reduction for the auger and is protected by shear bolts for each auger half.
Two-stage snow blowers are more effective than single-stage snow throwers when operating in deep snow as the low-speed auger is used to size crusted material. They also provide consistent snow placement in variable snow conditions because the high-speed rotor gives the discharged snow consistent velocity-even in very light clean-up volumes.
Durable, second-stage blower fan
Cast-iron gearbox
The second-stage blower fan is formed from the same durable and rust-resistant, ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene material proven in the Power Flow™ blower fan for durability and long life.
The durable fan material has the same cold-weather characteristics as snowmobile track rollers and will not bend and cause the fan to get out of balance.
A single-belt drive system coupled to a cast-iron gearbox with a horizontal sheave minimizes belt angles and twists for superior reliability and durability.
Spout and deflector
Spout rotation and deflector controls
The discharge spout and deflector are made from high-density polyethylene material that will not dent or rust and resists snow buildup to ensure trouble-free operation. It is more durable, especially in cold-weather use, than the polypropylene material used by some other manufacturers.
Spout direction and deflector angle can both be conveniently controlled form the operator station:
Adjustable skid shoe and cutting edge
Skid shoes help control the height of the snow blower cutting edge and are especially helpful for use on gravel drives and irregular surfaces.
Skid shoes can be adjusted by loosening the mounting bolts and positioning them to suit the operating conditions:
A heavy-duty steel cutting edge provides a durable wear surface and helps protect the snow blower housing from damage:
