    Shear pin

    Yes, I had called them and they could not find anything on my specific blower. This is the reason why I was asking here. Finally got an answer from the Dealer. 1/4 x 1" grade 2 or 5. I chose 1/4 x1 1/4' grade 2. Thanks for responding.

    The tractor and blower will stay in the garage for the Summer. Now should be concerned with the loader as it will stay out in open air all Summer with hydraulics hoses hanging off of it.

    Kioti Ck25 mid PTO

    I had one put in my CK 30 hst in 2014 for 250.00 part and labour. Not that expensive. Looks easy to install just a plate under the tractor and the pto just slides against cog shaft. Works great on my front blower and for connecting any other front mount accessories.
