Just got a new 54" blower for my 1023e. I am having a problem installing the pto shaft under the tractor. When I have mmm lift all the way up I cannot get the shaft on the pto. It will hit the bar that connects the two draft arms. If I put mmm lift down I can run the shaft over the draft bar and everything connects fine. Is this the only way to get it hooked up?

I don't think that you can have both mmm and snowblower connected at the same time at least not on the 2305. Why would you keep the mmm for snow removal. I think your better off removing it for winter and keep it away from salt and calcium. jmo.:thumbsup:

I have the mower off the tractor it's just the lift kit for it that's giving me the issue. I guess I'll just have to remove the bar connecting the draft arms.

Just to give an update the dealer came out to have a look at it. Basically both draft arms and the bar have to come off. It's not to hard just one extra step when spring comes next year.
