Most useful video I've seen in a long time. If only all RUclips content were like this. Just swapped blower without having to get the kids or wife involved
@@peteryork6910 so maybe this will help. I have had a Deere. An LT180. It was a fine machine and worked well. What made me go to Cub was price. Fixing the Deere is super expensive. Parts are insanely high priced. The cub works equally as well and is a fraction of the cost. Parts are obtainable on Amazon and much more affordable. I still have and use my Cub. It has 400+ hours on it and I will buy another one. Thanks for watching.
This vid was EXTREMElY helpful. I now know that i will need to purchase a separate snow blower and thus never ever having to remove the mower attachment. 🙏🏼ty
You're into is epic! Hats off to your digital media/video editor guy! Guns, wood stoves, more guns with silencers, atvs, hard core "get er done music", more guns, woodworking, more guns, welding. I forgot what I came for but all I know is I am fully erect right now, lol.
@@jackofalltrades7822, but I should add, I'm disabled, messed up back, knees & hip so laying down on concrete is next to impossible, lol but I can dream & continue watching Cub Cadet's & Kubota's snowblow...
You remove the snowblower frame first, separate from the PTO assembly, another video leaves it all attached as one unit and drops it with the snowblower frame. Is there a reason you do it this way instead of leaving both pieces attached and drop all at once?
Yes. It is way too heavy with the PTO still attached. That PTO unit is not light and it is easier to separate it than try to manhandle it. Thanks for watching.
I bought this recently and I never once thought about the snow blower attachment. Right now I'm paying a neighbor (I live in Maine) and he does a great job but wondering if I can take on the task myself this year if I get the blower. Was wondering what you thought, my driveway is not paved, its gravel/dirt and is about 250 yards long, with maybe 25 total feet of incline. Is this actually an option? Not sure if it can handle the length, heavy snow and incline. Any thoughts on this I would appreciate it. Thanks
I know its been a couple years but do you happen to have any info on the sno blower attachment? Looking to get an XT LT 46 and would love to get the snow blower attachment
Great video, I have the same set up but I found I was breaking the shear pins multiple times on the yellow auger even though I was not over-taxing it.....have you had the same issue?
For the life of me I can't figure out why they put that "bow pin" bracket with 2 holes on every deck, necessitating labeling which hole the pin goes in on which deck. Why not have the proper one for each deck size instead of dual-hole ones on all decks?
Good instructional video, better than factory instructions
Didn’t realize cub cadet xt1 and xt2 could be equipped with snow thrower. Great job explaining. Video and audio was very clear
Thanks for watching.
I just installed mine following your process in reverse order. Thanks for the tutorial
@@MrFabiobilla glad to help. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for a through job of showing how it is done. It is nice to have the whole process in one video.
and thank you for watching.
Just bought XT1 tractor today, Looking forward to a season of snowblowing thanks to your helpful video.
Thanks for watching.

EXCELLANT! Glad it helped and thanks for watching.
Just watched this video and now I'm going to buy the blower for my new 2023 xt2 thanks man!
I love mine. It moves snow that if for certain.
Thanks for watching.
thank you , trying to decide between cub cadet and john deere with snow blower, all information is helpful

Thanks for posting that, the instructions are baffling at best and i've twisted wrenches for a long time. 👍
Thanks for watching.

This saved me so much time bless your soul 🙏
So glad it helped.
Thanks for watching.
Great video and thanks for the instructions. Going out now to start the process for the first time. Confident after watching this! 👍
Good job on the video. Looking forward to purchasing a snowblower for my cub. Hope you have a how to video on snowblower installation. I will need it!
i will absolutely do that.

Thanks, I will let my video and editing team (that would be just me) know.
Thanks so much for watching and have a great Christmas.
Thank you. Appreciate the help
@@peteryork6910 glad to do it.
Thanks for watching.
Excellent demonstration, thinking I'll just stick with my Arnold snowplow, we don't get a lot of snow.
That’s fair. Thanks for watching.

So that BLACK box on the frame comes off separately?
Then hook PTO cable first before installing snow blower.
I have the same setup as you.
Thanks
Yup. 2 part to the snowblower. The PTO and the blower unit.
If you go into n exactly the reveres order of the video that would be the install.
Do you have a step by step hooking up the snow blower attachment to the xt1 cub cadet?
@@nuttybolts I don’t. I guess I could do one. Just follow the removal instructions reverse.
Thanks for watching.
Nice video.

Have you experienced the belt to the snow blower attachment coming off? I have gone through 2 belts because the keep coming off
No, I have not lost a single belt.
Make sure you have it routed correctly and the belt is the correct length.
Thank you sir!!

That might be more than it can handle.

@@platinumdad9492 I believe Cub is still selling the same snowblower.
I love the snowblower. It really relocates the snow.
Thanks for watching.
Great video, I have the same set up but I found I was breaking the shear pins multiple times on the yellow auger even though I was not over-taxing it.....have you had the same issue?
I have broken a couple. Usually because I sent a chunk of ice through it.
It always seems to be the back half of the auger.
Excellent.
