BLT Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Had any one installed a 990324 Hi lo on the three speed units? I have a friend who can get a unit and would like to know.
SimpleTom Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Bob, I put a three speed trans in my 717. I just installed a hi/low on it and it works great! Very easy to install. Tom
KSever Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Bob, I had a 3 speed transmission from a 728 that I put in my first 717. I did put a hi/lo on it with no problems. With the LO speed engaged and in 1st gear you can go slower than a snail.

I sold him my Broadmoor tiller a while ago and this is what he wants, very slow 1st gear. Thnx
bud119195 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 my 707 with Hi lo is perfect speed for tilling
mowerman1193 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I put a Hi/Lo on a 728 I used to have..I did it with the intention of using it with the tiller.. But it will also defeat the purpose because the tiller runs off the other side of the transmission input shaft..The Hi/Lo slows the input shaft as well so your tiller will just turn slooow too..It did come in handy a few times running the snow blower in real deep wet snow and also one time when I had to more a path across a field that was waist high.. You will have to cut the fender pan for the Hi/Lo shifter too..
