QUIK ATTACHMENTS

[bjess8]

I bought a snow plow from a farmer who used it on a bobcat.Now when I tried
to hook it up to my grand L3130 the pin holes were too close. Would it be ok
if I cut the holes bigger in the plate to make it work?Is this a problem that I will run into alot when i start buying attachments for this machine.I have a bushhog loader m246 with a quik attachment.Will it hurt if I cut the holes too big? thanks for the help

This may help you some, holes have to be just right, to big is not good and too small is not good.
Careful cutting

I have a few older bobcat attachments and the pin holes would not quite line up with my JD quick attachment. The newer bobcat plates have a wider slot like MrJimi shows. You should be able to make the slots slightly wider. I used a reciprocating saw with metal cutting blade to make the slots bigger. I used the blade to cut the top and bottom of the metal slots so they are straight and smooth. Then I used my cutting torch to cut the more vertical remaining edge. A small cut of wheel might be used in place of the torch, if the wheel is small enough.
