I run a Kioti 2610 with a 54" rear mount blower (Kioti, but made by Woods). The ears where the 3-point arms attach to the blower have begun to flare outward as if the arms are forcing themselves too wide against them. I am aware of the turnbuckles that control the swing of the attachment. These do pull outward if turned to tight, and I keep this in mind when I adjust; loose enough to allow a little swing, but tight enough to keep the arms off the rear wheels and chains. I don't think any sort of tensioner between the arms is an option because it would obstruct the PTO. I could weld some strength into the ears of the blower, but I am surprised the modifications would be necessary.
Am I missing something?
