Deere 4100 Questions

   / Deere 4100 Questions #11  
I have a 4115 which is close, when I bought it I also bought the 47 snow blower. This year I wanted to put a blade on it. I found a used plow at a JD dealer and was able to get it for $75. I built a mount for the plow that fits the quick hitch that came with the snow blower. The angle kit according to the parts web site was around $300. More than I wanted to spend. I decided to make the plow a manual angle. To do this I took a hole saw the same size as the pin in the quick hitch. I turned the hitch as far to the right as it would go and drilled a new hole, I did the same for the left. I then flipped the hitch over and welded a collar around the new holes (the center hole had the same setup from the factory) Now All I do is raise the blade, pull the pin and swing the blade to the side I want. Not a perfect solution but it was cheap. The only thing I would recommend is to mount your blade, pull the pin and swing it to both sides and make sure that it does not hit the ground. If it does you will want to adjust the position of your holes so that it does not swing fully to each side.

I found a cylinder off of a 54in blade that fit a 316. It fits the 4100 quick attach mount. I think I need to cut the cylinder end down a bit and drill a new hole. Swings to the right a little too far. Doesnt swing to the left far enough. Other than that, it should work fine.
