Very helpful video. My new 2032r was delivered with the loader on and snowblower off. No instructions or guidance given on how to hook up the snowblower. This was a good clear video - thank you!
Make sure to turn the wheels all the way left or right to get the first part of the attachment on to the tractor and past the steering tie rod. That tip would have saved me a few hours
I have a 54" JD snowblower for my 1025r. I can't find a video on how to service the snowblower. In particular, where do I put the oil?? Do you have such a video? Thanks!
It’s a nice snowblower, but I don’t like the process just shown. I made a snowblower that mounts on the loader arms. My snowblower is engine driven, 54 inch, with electric spout rotation and deflector. So my snowblower attachment process is 1) pull pins on bucket and drop it off. 2) use the loader to pick up the blower, place the retainer pins in the holes. 3) connect one 7 pin electrical connector (trailer connector). 4) start motor. 5) blow snow.
Yeah the process they show for this snow blower is way complicated , and it can be made much easier by not taking it apart . Just add a 2x6 frame to set it on and you eliminate 90% of that grief they displayed . It takes me 5 minutes to put the same blower on my 2025R using this 2x6 platform I made . It then uses the hydraulics of the blower to put it on . Then just slide the pins and hook up the hydraulics .
Never liked the hydraulic couplers that John Deere uses. Dirt, grass and other debris gets into those couplers especially the females. Ever since I switched to Flat face couplers, I don't have that issue. Also wish they would incorporate the hydraulic quick connect valve bank that has a handle for quick connections. So much room for improvments.
No mention of the fact that if there is a fast attach mower set up on the tractor, the front mower mount needs to be removed (several bolts) and different mounting plates have to be installed to attach the snow blower. Then the reverse next spring. The installation instructions from Deere are very poor. Guess they expect the average customer to call the dealer to have this done. Not very user friendly for the average owner.
@@cjstrasser thank you so much! Got a great deal on a complete 47 in package. The guy used it once but had a gravel driveway and lost three windows. He didn’t want to take the mount off which I understand.

Excellent, “easy” to follow.

You are correct. It took me a while to figure this out also. 👍
Have the tractor running to get the full turn of the wheels. That was key to my install
Been trying for like an hour till I saw this
Absolutely the most valuable comment here. I had to learn this myself the hard way.
Very good video. Thanks

how much does a set up like this cost after everything?

What model is the snow blower
Model 54; you can see that on the backside of the attachment at several points in the video.

Would you happen to have the part number for that front plate? Deere seems to keep this info hidden.
@@prestigevending15 I will try to get those numbers for you

@alhall959 I needed the tractor running to get the full wheel turn needed to install mine. I agree, would have saved a lot of time.
