Hoping someone can help me out here. I purchased my first Deere this summer and bought a 54inch snowblower at the same time. I am now attempting to hook up.the blower and seemed to have forgotten the demo I received 7 months ago.
My tractor came with a 54 inch drive over, quick connect deck. I had no problem removing the deck. I hooked up the front quick hit hitch, attached the blower, attached the blower driveshaft to the tractor and connected the hydronic lines.
Where I am running into trouble is connecting the driveshaft from the front axle to the rear axle. The drive shaft seems to be about 8 inches to long. It also does not appear to hook into the quick connect assembly that the mower deck uses. Do I need to remove the quick connect assembly? If so, my manual does not include steps for removing?
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated as winter storms are expected overnight. Thank you in advance.
