Snowblower Ford 715 snow blower

[KubotaSam]

I just bought a 3 point hitch mounted Ford 715 snowblower. Looks to be in really good shape. Does anyone have access to a PDF of the operators manual that they could share or advice on where to download one.
Thanks
Sam

KaboyaSam,
I have the printed book, no PDF. If your looking for something in particular be glad to scan some pages for you.
I got mine a couple years ago, it's rated for a 1000 rpm PTO set up, had to re-gear for 540. worked pretty good at 540
It's a 18 year old 19bv9130 63" used only a couple times.

Thanks,
Malvern

I have no documentation with mine. It is 51 plus a little wide. Series # 715, Component # 19BV9127. How did you determine yours was rated for 1000 rpm?

The sister machine to mine is a 19bv9129 rated at 51". Your's must be newer only guessing. When I ran it at 540 PTO the snow was shooting about 10ft. It worked but it was slow. I did the math on the rotation and sure enough 1000 PTO input speed. I did a 2:1 reduction with a set of sprockets and # 50 chain and it works great. For what i paid for the blower and the machine parts I had to make I don't have $500 into it.

Chances are that Ford did not make the blower only had a true snow blower company paint their model blue and stick on a few labels.
Post a few pictures and someone may recognize its manufacturer.
