    I remember doing this once about 22 years ago, ran over the dog chain, wound up it up like a roll of toilet paper! Thank God, there was nobody within ear shot, I didn't think I knew that many cuss words! I was on a three day tyraid, as I tore it down, to get the chain out! After 22 years, it still brings my blood pressure up a couple notches!

    Hubby and I ordered a JD X-739 a couple of weeks ago, and can't wait to get it. The tractor and snow blower are in, and the cab should be here today. The dealership hopes to have everything delivered early next week. We're in Minot, ND, and we've had one heck of a snow year. We've been using a smaller JD garden tractor and show "thrower," which has done okay for our main driveway, but we have some huge drifts in other places on our hobby farm, and haven't been able to get them cleared. Plus, we haven't had a cab or any heat, and it's been well below zero - pretty miserable at times to be outside. Thank you for posting your video. I've watched it several times now, and it's made me even more anxious to get our new setup. Diane.

      THANKS for watching and CONGRATS on your new X739 setup! With the cab you will be nice and toasty inside and the X739 with blower should handle your drifts without a problem. The only issue I see is the jostling going on to see who will get to the tractor first to clear the snow, you or your hubby! Have fun and enjoy your new beast!

    I have a 1023 E with a rear mount 54 in blower.We had 36 inches here on Sat and I chewed through it. Backing up is a pain BUT I can pick up and move snow with the loader bucket which works well especially on the Highway Dept push off at the top of the driveway.

    These are great machines until the shaft driven P.T.O.goes out and you have to take half the transmission apart to fix it.
    I bought the X-534 with the 5/8's V-belt driven P.T.O.and if something goes wrong,about $50.00 bucks and 20-30 minutes of your time,your back to blowing snow again with the 47"inch two-stage blower.

    • @X748SE
      @X748SE  4 года назад

      Thanks for watching. Having a hydraulic shaft driven PTO is one of the reasons i bought this machine. The hydraulic trans-axle which drives everything (hydraulics, steering, front PTO, rear PTO, front axle and rear axle) in these machines is quite robust and I doubt the PTO will just go like that.

    Do you have the PN: for the up and down function on the chute? I just got a 2019 X738 and a 48 inch snowblower and the chute does not have a mechanism for adjustment from the drivers seat.

    • @X748SE
      @X748SE  5 лет назад

      Thanks for watching and your query. The up/down function of the chute is something that I added and not a John Deere part. It was very easy to do. Have a look at this video of mine as it shows how the linear actuator was mounted: --> ruclips.net/video/tE819PnpUjE/видео.html You can get the same 4" stroke 15 lbs force "mini" linear actuator from www.firgelliauto.com The linear actuator is controlled by an Momentary DPDT which you can mount in one of the vacant slots in your console. I used stainless steel bolts and nuts to mount it on the chute and I've had ZERO issues since I mounted back in 2013.

  • @capt.sparrow34

    Rear mounted blowers don't throw as far but can go through the snow twice as fast, lot more torque. Plow on the front blower on the back has worked best for me. Used to have a front mount blower, no plow. Took me 30 min to clear my driveway. With a plow on the front and blower on the back I clear the driveway in 15 min, yes it's that much faster.

    • @X748SE
      @X748SE  7 лет назад

      Thanks for watching! I had a 60" blower on the back of CUT for years and with this front mounted 54" one it takes a 1/3 of the time to clear the same driveways due to the superior maneuverability of the X748. I also have a 60" front blade and only use it when there is heavy slushy stuff that would normally clog to blower.
