341 snowblower

[Andrewra]

have a model number 341 42' blower on a 2166 cub cadet. whenever I raise the blower with the pto on, then the shaft rides on the exhaust making a very loud noise. when it is sitting in the up position then it is fine. it only does this when It is as high as it gets while I am raising it. I know this isn't the best explanation, but any advice to stop this from happening is appreciated!

I have the same. Are you sure its pushed all the way back on the frame? If you can post pic of where it hits I can compare with mine for you.
