3720 Cab and blower

[turbo36]

Turbo,

If you haven't already checked make sure that power steering hoses are not rubbing against the front PTO shaft. I had to tie mine back.

This new A-frame mount does not seem to have a float option allowing the blower to follow the ground contour. If I put too much down force on the blower the front wheels loose traction & steering becomes less effective.

I will check the hoses next time I'm up to the property.
The float seems to work fine on mine; just push the lever all the way forward ( past the detent) and it is in float. On my other Deeres float was forward and more to the right. On this tractor it is almost straight forward so it took a little time to get used to it.

Thanks,

I didn't realize that there was a detent at the extreme forward position of the dscv allowing the blower to float.

I've been constantly making minor adjustments to the blower height as I clean our gravel drive & wondering why JD didn't design it to float.

I have the same set up. You can pull the two pins on the forward frame an use bolts in the top holes instead of the pins. This will give you even more float. It shows you this option in the blower manual.

Very nice, did you add the cylinder for the chute? add where is the control for it?

The Dealer installed it, the pitch is controlled by the 3rd scv lever.

This is a couple of more pictures that show the cylinder and the hose routing
