Hey guys. I have a question about my 366 front blade on my tractor. I bought this thing used for good price earlier this summer, and it is in good shape. I mounted it up this week because we had a **** of a fall snow storm this last couple of days. My question is: is there a way to adjust the tilt from side to side. The left side of the blade sits about 3/4 to 1 inch lower than the right. This made it hard not to gouge my gravel driveway, and get a clean scrape. I guess a couple other observations / questions are: the blade settles down while in use, what could this be caused by? The loader never settles unless parked for a while. Could the lift cylinder just be worn? The only thing missing when I got the blade was a manual, so any help on adjustment would be appreciated. I really like the blade, and it did perform well other than the questions above. It pushed a lot of wet heavy snow today. It's really nice to push and not pull like I'm used to.

Thanks
Brad

I know less than nothing about the 366 or the Front A Frame mount and maybe do not understand the question.

Having said that - when actually using the blade are you using the "FLOAT" function. The front blade I had was equipped with two skid shoes and for use, road on them somewhat following the contour of the ground, because the hydraulics were in the "float" position. On a gravel drive you may want to set the shoes so the actual blade is 1/2" - 1" above the gravel and only the shoes touch.

Hope this is of some help.
