Ordered a new 3320 toy....err.. work machine!!!!

[jjmarotz]

Hi guys...
Bit the bullet and ordered in a new 3320 open station, w300CX loader, and 59" front mount snowblower to replace my 3202 w300 loader and rear 3pt Meteor blower. Looking forward to a few more conveniences and added loader capacities. Should be here in 2 weeks if things go right.

My ? is.... does anyone have a few pics, front and rear, of the mounting system of the front mount blower? More specifically the rear, can a rear blade be used in conjunction with the blower? I have searched high and low for detailed pics of this setup only to come up empty.

Also.... do I have to remove most of the front A-frame assy and such to put the loader back on? And how time consuming is the swap around?

Thanks for the help!!!

You are gonna love your tractor, but being from the deep south I am not familiar with snow moving implements.

Keep us informed and post some pics when the tractor comes in.

Yes on the removal of the Front A-Frame, no it does not take long at all it is a few minutes and should not require any unbolting, should be ony pins to remove - but check with your dealer. I have not put my loader on since I got the front blade, but I seem to remember you only have to remove the A-frame and its mounting brackets.

I use a back blade with my snowblower will post pics. I also have pics of the A-Frame setup somewhere. Will post when I find them.
You will love to move snow.

Found these pics.
This would be my ideal setup . . a nice warm cab.

Thanks for the pics Jbird!! That's exactly what I was needing to see. I had seen a pic somewhere of a front mount blower that had a drop box using the rear pto of the tractor. Had me worried that I wouldn't be able to use a rear blade with blower on. Talked with my dealer today to confirm the blower ran off the mid pto.
Wish I could have gotten the cab, but I suppose the Femco weatherbrake will have to do for now.

I could have considered a snow blower with the latest scow we got. I did fine with the blade but a snow blower is neater

Snowblower in my area is almost mandatory!!! Even if it is on a compact tractor. My last tractor, early 1970's 78hp 4010 JD with 7' wide bucket, worked fairly good. But... the mountains of snow I created quickly closed in on me and had to call the neighbor with comparable tractor with blower to move the banks back for me a couple times a yr. It is nothing for us to receive 4-5'+ of snow on any given yr. Even the county road grader with HUGE v-wedge blade has troubles getting thu sometimes!!!

Last pic was taken 4-14-08 in my front yard
