Snowblower Help with Snowblower!!!

/ Help with Snowblower!!! #41  
OK, I think I did a poor job of explaining. Everything seems to be moving ok when hooked up. The auger turns and the blades (impeller) spin. It's when we put any snow at all in there, even with a shovel, it just spins around where the blades are until it just plugs up and we lose another shear pin. In the picture looking in the blower, the impeller spins counter-clockwise which seems to make sense because there are curved edges that would throw the now up and out of the shute. Let me know what you guys think. Also, what is the other shaft on the back of the blower for? It was obvious that the one we are hooked up to because it was the only one with any signs of use. We did hook up to that one but it didn't seem to make a differance.

Thanks all!


Old thread, but that blower was built for a Toro groundsmaster front mount mower. The pto on those mowers turn at 1800 rpms and the blower has a 2:1 gear box to slow it down to 900 rpm. With your 540rpm pto you will be turning the blower at 270rpm which is obviously way too slow. I also see you have a severe driveline angle issue.
