    replacement battery 3720

    Well the current cold snap seems to have shown a weakness in the battery of my 3720.

I did a search...

    Tire chain sizing and equivalence

    Yooperdave's thread reminded me of the challenges of finding front chains for my 3720.

First there is the issue of the various numbering...

    Chains  Looking for front chain suggestions

    Have already worn out the tire chains.com front chains on my 27x8.5-15 r-4's When they arrived it was obvious that they were not in any way beefy enough (I think that they were intended for a lawn tractor) but I used them anyway. So now I need a new set, usage is on pavement so ride quality...

    i have a jd 3720 and a pronovost pull snow blower, at operating speeds the chute rotation is way way too fast and the diverter action is also too quick. I have been thinking of restricting the flow but wondering about the best way to accomplish it. I see that there are fixed orifices and...

    so i went to test the relief pressure on the cushion valve on my chute rotator and could not get any change either with screw all the way in or out. And a fitting that had previously not been leaking was now leaking like a sieve. So i pull the connections and inside it appears that some portion...

    setting a fusion valve relief and testing system pressure

    My new pronovost blower has cushion valves on the rotator and i need to set them.

Wouldn't this set up...
