Next swing the top link into place and adjust the length so the top link pin can be inserted. You will have to supply the top link pin.
Operating the Meteor® Snowblower This blower is on the back of the tractor facing toward the rear. While blowing snow the tractor has to be backed into the snow. Stay in the seat of the tractor all the time that the blower is running. Make sure the area is clear of people while blowing snow.

PTO Installation Instructions for Snowblower 17
PTO Installation Instructions for Snowblower For Better PTO Shaft and Gearbox Operation A proper initial installation will give you years of satisfactory service on your equipment. Please read carefully, following instructions which have been specially made to help you and make you satisfied of your purchase. Warning! Unfortunately, snowblowers will be faced with forgotten or hidden objects under the snow, such as: chain, tires, stones, pieces of wood, etc.
Previous examples clearly demonstrate that universal joint angle is directly related with life of PTO. In order to reduce angle, it is necessary to increase the angle between snowblower and tractor. Too Large Angles at PTO Joints To Avoid Reasonable Angles at PTO Joints Acceptable If it is impossible to increase the distance between snowblower and tractor, in order to maintain a reasonable angle at the PTO, it is recommended to use a larger size PTO that is a greater capacity PTO.
Shear Bolts Shear bolts are built to break under shock loads on the fan or auger. However under certain circumstances this security is not adequate. Example: a sudden high impact shock on the fan may, in some cases break the fan shaft without breaking the shear bolt.
