    About To Test My 2360 Snow Blower

    I’m on the north shore of MA so I’m in the bullseye area. The most I’ve used it on is maybe 10 inches? The snow is definitely blowing everywhere so I’d prefer to wait. Blowing snow in the middle of a storm with 40+ mph winds is the worst. I just don’t want to get caught with too much. I...

    About To Test My 2360 Snow Blower

    Local forecast is calling for 24-36 inches and I’m seriously considering waiting for it to all fall before I go out and clean it up. It’s going to be a very light and fluffy snow. I definitely wouldn’t do it if it was wet. Am I going to regret that decision? Should I go out twice to be on...

    Pretty bummed out ------> UPDATE: All Fixed

    I know it’s been a while since I originally posted this but I found a local welding shop to fix it for me before the snow flies this season. He tried to charge me $60 and I wasn’t having it. I was too happy with the result so I gave him $100.

    Installing a Step for GC 17XX GC 26xx

    I recently installed mine. I'm about to hook up my 60 drive over deck for the first time this weekend. Are there any clearance issues I should look out for?

    GC Series - 23 or 25 HP from the same size engine: How do they do that?

    This bums me out because my dealer convinced me that there would be no noticeable difference as the PTO HP was almost identical on both (18.3 I think he said?) so I went with the 1723E. One of the first things I noticed about the snow blower was that it was really sensitive to speed and it...

    Yesterday痴 Clean up

    Here is a video of me cleaning up after about 6 or 7 inches. There is no fancy editing so it痴 kind of boring and probably too long but I figured I壇 share it anyway in case anyone is interested. The machine is maybe a month old so this only my second time using it so go easy on me :laughing...

    Brand New 1723 popping out of float mode

    I have 8 hours on my new 1723 and from minute 1 it痴 been popping out of float mode. My dealer says they致e been doing this for years and his fix is to disconnect the lower hose on the quick attach cylinder (we were talking about my 2360), plug it and drill a relief hole in it so it痴 always...

    Pretty bummed out ------> UPDATE: All Fixed

    UPDATE: Check page 4 to see it all fixed. I just took delivery of my 1723 with 2360 blower and we got 12 inches of wet cement two days later. I cleaned my driveway up and went to help my neighbor whose blower died on his first pass. His driveway is paved but we had huge wind gust during the...

    10-15 inches headed my way!

    My new 1723 with 2360 blower should be getting delivered tomorrow just in time for a BOMB on Monday night through Wednesday morning. They're calling for 10-15, possibly more. I have plenty of experience clearing snow just not with a tractor/blower combo. Unless you folks recommend otherwise...

    Rear blade advice

    One other question I have, if you open up the image of the entire tractor and zoom in on the back, you can see the top link at a much steeper angle than the lower links. Could this be limiting its travel? If I modded the top link attachment point to be lower, would that help? Sorry if these...

    Rear blade advice

    My 1723 is getting delivered this week so I went to do a walkthrough yesterday. One of the things I wanted was a rear blade with an offset feature. My dealer told me that the only one he could find was a Tufline GB1. Itç—´ 385 pounds and the tractor seems to have no issue lifting it but it...

    GC1723 electrical question

    Does anyone know what the draw is on the electrical system when the tractor is running? Anything close is fine, with or without lights. I'm curious how much margin I have in the alternator to add accessories before it can't keep up. It looks like it puts out 40amps, just not sure how much of...
