    replacement battery 3720

    Thanks the CCA listed for the old battery is 500. The 22NF also has a little plastic rail at the bottom that the JD bracket fits over to hold it down. I don't think the 51R has that. I guess the mod would be to put a longer bolt in the hole and clamping the battery at the top. The bots are...

    replacement battery 3720

    Reviving this thread... My 3720 battery died, the dealer doesn't have one in stock. It's listed as a group 22NF battery, others have said a 51R battery works and still others have said they bought either the Odyssey or Optima battery. Does the 51R indeed work and what modifications did you...

    Snow  3720 snowblowing air restriction Indicator

    I have a 3720 cab tractor with 59" front snowblower. I snowblow about a mile of road on a pretty regular basis. About half way through, I get an air restriction indicator. Presumably from snow/ice getting into the grill or air intake. I say presumably because sometimes cleaning it all out...

    59 Snowblower on a 3720 w/ gravel driveway

    Thanks, I'll check into those shoes. Here are some snowy pics of my rig that several people requested. I can raise it up a bit and manage, but it's not as good as I would like. Probably have to wait till summer at this point to do anything, but want to do something to improve it. Although the...

    59 Snowblower on a 3720 w/ gravel driveway

    JD 3000 series front hitch for snowblower

    Here are some pics. First pic is the front of the hitch. The 2nd is the back side of the front hitch from underneath, that's the bearing I had to remove and put on the inside (the pic shows the wrong way before I moved it). Then there is a measurement from the mid pto to the front bearing...

    JD 3000 series front hitch for snowblower

    I have a newly purchased 3720 with a front snowblower. This is the first time trying to install it. I have the front brackets installed and am trying to get the drive shaft that goes from the mid-pto to the front hitch installed. The front hitch has two bearings separated by a few inches that...

    3720 display

    I recently purchased a 3720 cab tractor. It's great, but I have a question about the display. The manual says the display toggles between MPH, Hours, loadmatch, motionmatch, and error codes. However, my display shows MPH, loadmatch, motion match, hours, hours, hours, etc.. There are three...
