#960 Snowblower WARRANTY POLICY Buhler Manufacturing products are warranted for a period of twelve (12) months (90 days for commercial application) from original date of purchase, by original purchaser, to be free from defects in material and workmanship under correct, normal agricultural use and proper applications.
#960 Snowblower SNOWBLOWER This manual is for 96" Farm King Snowblower with a quick coupling hitch. With this hitch, the blower can be mounted on a tractor with either a quick hitch or the standard three-point hitch. All 96" Farm King snowblowers have a sealed oil bath gearbox. The snowblower is the push type and will mount to a tractor with 540 rpm PTO. It is supplied with category 2 pins with conversion bushings to category 3 available.
#960 Snowblower OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Do not operate the blower in the fully raised position. The three-point hitch on some tractors rises high enough to cause the PTO shaft to bind. This can cause damage to the PTO shaft and/or to the hitch and pins. 2. Depth of cut can be partially controlled by tilting the blower forward or backward. Adjust the tractor quick hitch so the snowblower is just slightly tilted back when resting on the ground.
#960 Snowblower OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – cont’d. 9. Danger: Always stop blowing for servicing or unplugging. The PTO should be disengaged before dismounting from the tractor. 10. Caution: Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are securely attached as per instructions every time you are preparing to use the Snowblower. 11. Shear Sprocket: The shear sprocket (#24) should be checked at the beginning of every season to make sure it will spin freely.
#960 Snowblower ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS 1. Fasten the two quick hitch arms (#57 & #58, left and right) to the main body. Use eight 5/8” x 1 ¼” hex bolts, lock washers and hex nuts. Note: Lift arms for quick coupling hitch are 30 ¾” long versus 35” for the standard three point hitch. 2. Bolt the quick hitch (#56) to the snowblower body using two ½” x 1 ¼” hex bolts, lock washers and hex nuts. Fasten to the lift arms using three 5/8" x 1 ½” hex bolts on each lift arm.
#960 Snowblower ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS – cont’d. 7. Mounting blower on tractor: a) b) c) d) e) The pins supplied with the snowblower are for a category 2 quick hitch. The quick coupling hitch has two holes both at the top of the hitch and at each lift arm. When using a quick coupler, the pins must be in the inside set of holes. Use the outside set of holes with a standard three-point hitch.
#960 Snowblower ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS – cont’d. 8. PTO SHIELD All snowblowers are supplied with a PTO shield (#61). To install, remove the two rear bolts at the top of the gearbox (#38). Bolt the PTO shield to the gearbox by the hinges using these same bolts. A utility spring (#62) keeps the shield in place. Hook one end of the spring in the hole in the shield and the other end to the hole in the brace under the gearbox. CAUTION: Do not run the snowblower without this shield in place.
