1641 cyclops pto size and correct snowblower

RUST ....what rust ?

 

[mgonitzke]

The parts diagram for the snowblower lift will probably have the representation of that part he has. There appear to be 3 different versions. Push to lift, Pull to lift, and height indicator.

#15 In the plow blade picture is for hydraulic lift Cubs. You have a snow blower, so your part for the lift is the rusty picture. #12 is for manual lift Cubs for the blade.

Current belt is slipping as soon as it touches snow, it is only 1/2 '' wide and sits deep in pulley. Seems like with the 5 1/4 '' pto it has the standard 5/8 x 84 belts would be a little long but i think i will try 1 and if it dont work i can use it on the 2084 for a spare as i have only used it for an hour and new belt is looking well used and discolored..

Also the smaller tires on the 1641 dont get the traction the 2084 gets, and not having power steering is not fun , and what a difference the 2 link spacing makes vs, 4 on the chains ...wow.

Put a new 5/8 x 84 belt on today, Suprisingly with the smaller 5 1/4" pto the belt works great. I smashed into a snowbank and blasted rite thru it. Bring on the next storm !

The 1641 came with a 54 " deck . i know its not what came on it from factory ( just like the 450 blower that came with it lol ) Does anyone know what the 54 " deck came off and if it is a direct fit or with little mods ?

IF you have the CC 190-324-100 54" deck, it is listed as fitting models: 1340 1440 1535 1541 1641 1782 1860 1861 1862 1863 1864 1882 2082 2084 2086 2182 2284 with the proper mule drive. The 190-317-100 48" deck is similar in construction and mounting.

The 54" deck is not listed for the 1340, 1440, 1541, 1641, or the 1860. Where did you get this info?

This is what came with it.

Of couse you can put it on there, just like you can put a 48" deck on a 70. But If you put those decks on those tractors, you will be lugging the motor in tall grass, overheat the motor and prolly blow it. The reason the 317 48" 324 54" decks will not fit on a 1340, 1541, or the 1860 is that the front axle is not swept forward like the later models Cyclops and the deck will end up hitting the front wheels

So i got a tractor that the blower nor the deck are compatible with, people tell ya anything to sell em.

 

[mgonitzke]

1641 should have the later front axle that will allow the 54" deck to fit. IMO, not enough power unless you really stay on top of mowing, but it'll fit.

 

[cubs4lifeofme]

i have a 50c on my 1882. Would it be beneficial to put that on the 1641 and use this GT 54 on the 1882 ?

this may help.
