Safety – It’s in your interest.
Safety Guidelines.
Safety of the operator is one of our main concerns, however it is up to the operator to
practice caution.
To avoid personal injury, study the following precautions and insist that those
working with you to follow them.
The Meteor Snowblower has only 2 shields, one shield is the PTO drive shield and
the other is a shield for the power hood turner if used. Do not use the blower with the
auger drive cover removed, as this is part of the blower frame.
Replace any decals that may be missing or not readable. Location of decals are
indicated elsewhere in this manual.
Do not use this machine while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Review the safety instructions with all users annually.
This equipment should not be operated by children: or those unfamiliar with the
operation of the Meteor® Blower. Do not allow persons to operate this machine
until they have read this manual and/or were instructed by a qualified person.
Do not paint over, remove or deface any safety signs or warning decals on the
Meteor® Blower. Observe all safety signs and practice the instructions on them.
Do not use this machine to push snow as this can result in the augers to be broken or
bent.
Please be careful with the extra weight on the back of the tractor. It may be
necessary to add weights on the front of the tractor to keep it balanced properly.
When changing shearpins or removing ice or snow from the machine Please
stop the engine and remove the key on the tractor! This will reduce the possibility
of the blower to be started and cause personal injury.

5. 1 pc 2 hole Chute Clamp
6. 1 Assembly Instructions
Upon Receiving the Meteor Snowblower
The blowers are shipped in a packaged state
These blowers are packaged without hood turner device.
Carefully remove the chute and PTO shaft from the area of the auger and set them aside. Locate
the bag or package of small components.
Remove the ties that hold the Plastic ring on the blower and place the base of the chute on top of
the plastic ring. (Note: Plastic Ring can be lightly coated with grease at this time.)
Take two 5/8 bolts and drop them down through the chute clamp, turn the clamp upside down
while holding the bolts in the holes. place a 5/8 wave washer on the bolts, then a 5/8 bearing and
finish off with a second 5/8 wave washer. Turn the clamp right side up with the washers bearings
on the bolts. Carefully insert the bolts into the mounting holes and secure with locknuts.
Install the PTO with the shear bolt yoke at the gearbox. This will provide more space to change
the shear bolt.

108 Hydraulic Rotator
The hydraulic chute rotator uses a hydraulic motor, controlled by the tractor hydraulics to rotate
the chute. The kit includes a safety shield that also keeps the snow and ice form building up on
top of the gears.
The motor kit is bolted to the base with 2, 1/2-20 UNF bolts. The shield is mounted with 4, 5/16
bolts as shown.
When installing the hydraulic elbows, turn them in "not more than 4 rounds" then tighten the
jamnut to secure the elbow in the direction that you want the hoses to go, as shown.
The relief valve is factory preset to 900 PSI.
Route the hoses and tie them to the top "A" frame support, away from moving equipment.
Ensure that the hoses do not get too tight or rub on the frame when the blower is raised or
lowered.

97D - 108 Meteor® Snowblower
This Blower is ideal for tractors 100 - 120 HP Cat #2 3PH.
Attaching the Meteor® Blower for the first time.
Set the blower on a level surface and back the tractor up to it. Place the lower 3PH arms
of the tractor between the lower hitch plates on the blower and insert the hitch pins that
came with the blower, secure these with the Lynch Pins. Next swing the top link into
place and adjust the length so the top link pin can be inserted. You will have to supply the
top link pin. With the top link set at this length the blower will be flat or parallel to the
ground.
Do not fasten the PTO shaft to the tractor.
1. Slowly lift the blower until the gearbox shaft is at the same height as the PTO
output on the tractor.
2. Push (or collapse the telescopic part of the PTO completely). If you cannot
collapse it far enough to slide get it on the tractor then it has to be shortened.
3. Measure the amount that the shaft is too long. Remove it from the blower and pull
it apart.
4. Take a hacksaw and cut ½ of the measurement from each end, cut both the plastic
tube and the metal core.
5. Use a file to remove the burrs from the cut parts, wipe any filings from the
surfaces and slide the shaft together to be sure that it slides freely.
6. Make sure the plastic shield is free to rotate on the shaft before installing on the
machine.
7. Reinstall the PTO on the blower and fasten it to the tractor pushing the spring-
loaded pin in and sliding the yoke onto the tractor spline until the pin snaps into
place.
8. Next lift the 3PH arms to the highest point, determine the overlap on the PTO
shaft. It should be at least 3” if it is too short then the PTO will jam rather then
collapse. This will put severe strain on the shaft and gearbox.
9. It may come apart and this will allow a spinning PTO to become an
uncontrolled weapon and could severely injure or kill someone!
10. After it has been determined that the PTO is OK and will not jam or come apart,
make sure any bystanders are well away from the machine.
11. Lower the blower to ground level, engage the PTO and slowly start the blower.
Make sure that everything is turning freely.
12. Slowly increase the speed until you have reached 540 RPM on the PTO or (1000
RPM with the 1000 RPM PTO option). This is the speed that this blower was
designed for. If it turns faster the fan could be going dangerously fast. If it turns
slower it will not perform very well as the snow will not get blown very far.
Snowblower performance will vary greatly due to ambient temperature and type
of snow.

Operating the Meteor® Snowblower
This blower is on the back of the tractor facing toward the rear. While blowing snow
the tractor has to be backed into the snow.
Stay in the seat of the tractor all the time that the blower is running.
Make sure the area is clear of people while blowing snow.
Do not direct discharged snow toward people, cars or buildings as stones or
bits of ice can go a long distance.
When you get to the place that you want to clear snow, lower the blower to the
ground and turn the chute to discharge the snow in the direction you want the snow to
go. Engage the PTO and slowly bring the blower up to operating speed. After the
blower is running use reverse gear and start backing up. The chute can be rotated
from the tractor seat while blowing snow.
If your drive is paved then you may need to lengthen the top 3PH link to tilt the
blower ahead so it will scrape the hard surface better.
If your drive is gravel then you may want to shorten the top 3PH link to tilt the
blower back so it will not dig into the loose gravel. In colder climates where the bare
ground is frozen during most of the winter the blower can be adjusted to scrape the
snow off the frozen drive after freeze-up.
In areas where the gravel is not frozen most of the time we have skid shoes available
to bolt on the end plates to raise the blower a few inches above the gravel.
This blower is designed to blow snow, but will blow loose gravel if care is
not taken.
After the job is finished: Disengage the PTO to stop the blower before
driving away or getting off the tractor.
The auger is protected with a safety shear bolt that will shear off if the auger becomes
jammed.
The fan is also protected with a shear bolt in the PTO shaft universal joint if the fan
becomes jammed.
When replacing the shear bolts STOP the engine before attempting to
replace them!
The hydraulic hood turner couples into the tractor hydraulic remotes. This will allow
you to rotate the hood without reaching back to the blower especially if you have a
cab on your tractor.
