Chris727 1,860 Posted November 5, 2007 I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this is the correct hitch to use with a single belt blower for a B-Series? http://cgi.ebay.com/simplicity-snow-hitch-for-Sovereign-60s-version_W0QQitemZ330183610665QQihZ014QQcategoryZ42230QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I have a 42" blower for an RBT, and don't have a powerful enough RBT, nor one with the correct PTO for it, so I am wondering if the body of this blower is the same, could I use a B-series single belt hitch with a the clutch on it and use it on a B-12? This hitch is described as being for a the older tractors but doesn't look like it has the clutch on it from what I can see in the pics. Thank You.

ehertzfeld 1 Posted November 5, 2007 Just to make it clearer, like Maynard said, that hitch is for a RBT style tractor that uses a mechanical or electrical PTO on the front of the engine. The type your asking about, has the PTO on the hitch. It's close but not the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris727 1,860 Posted November 5, 2007 I thought it looked a lot like the RBT style currently on mine. Sounds like they don't know what they have. Thank You. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mooseman3210 0 Posted November 5, 2007 this is a picture of my snow blower pully system . it looks alot like the one in the pic from ebay i may be wrong but someone used this blower on a B series tractor with no modifactions other then they welded it to the blower frame Hope this helps . The picture doesn't show it but the pullys are on a pin and swivel with the movement of the belts . I tried to get some angles of it to help out with the way it hooks up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ehertzfeld 1 Posted November 5, 2007 It will fit and work well on a B, if you don't care if he blower never shuts off unless the engine is shut down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris727 1,860 Posted November 5, 2007 Thanks Mooseman, the blower will turn off on yours becuase of the electric clutch, if he had it on a B then as Elon said, it must have run constantly. I didn't know if maybe the housings were different too but I think they are the same or are close enough, I'll just keep an eye on ebay for a hitch. Thanks.
