"I was really surprised at how well made this blower was when I got it.very heavy gauge it compares easy to the brand name one's.It was shipped in a angle iron case so it was very safe.Even if i paid what the other big name blowers were asking for this one It would still be a good deal.I have a small farm and it works great.Buy with confidence!!"

"I purchased this for the 2011-2012 snow season in Central NY and the snow never came....the snowblower came frieght shipped to my house, it was packaged very well. This unit is installed on my Kubota BX2650 and althought the tractor lifts you need some counter weight on the front. I have a power angle plow and thats bairly enough weight. I did use the unit a few times and it is super quiet and well build. The rotaing chute was a stuggle to put together since the pictures in the manual are too dark for any details. After a couple false starts I got it put together and installed rather quickly."

VERY WELL BUILT SNOW BLOWER

"This is a very heavy duty snow blower. I am using it on Kubota B2320 Tractor and it works great. I look at five different 3pt snow blowers and this one was the best of all. We just had the first snow storm 12 inches of snow and this unit moved the snow with no trouble."

Braber 60 inch PTO snow thrower
,December 27, 2010

"Just purchased this in November 2010, delivered in early December.
After it was delivered, I checked the gearbox for gear oil, it was fine. I lubed the chain drive and gave each zerk fitting an added shot of grease, and also greased the base of the revolving discharge chute. I also raised the skid shoes to the high position, this gives you about three inches of ground clearance. My tractor is a New Holland TC-30 which gives 30 HP at the motor and 24HP at the PTO. My drive is stone and 1,000 feet long.
Had our first snow of the season on December 26th, 12-14 inches, with drifting to 24 inches. The machine works perfectly.
The only negative comment would be that the literature is next to useless. As long as you are comfortable setting up and using a blower like this, you should have no problems. If you do, call Braber customer service and they should be able to walk you through it."

60" Agri-Ease Snow Blower
,November 30, 2010

"The unit seems very well built. The manual is not very thorough however. The gear box did not have any oil in it. This did not surprise me, but I would have thought this would have not only been posted on the machine, but would have been highlighted in some way in the manual. There were 2 bolts that were found on the pallet when it arrived. I assume they are the stops for the chute, but cannot find this in the manual nor is it obvious when looking at the base of the chute. There is no drain plug in the bottom of the gear box. I decided while it was new to figure out how to remove this when it comes time to drain and replace. This ended up being a major job, as the shaft would not slide through the side bearing. All of that being said, the unit is very solid. The drive shaft that came with it is very solid. I fired it up for the first time tonight and it looks like it will do a very good job. I can't wait for our first measurable snow to put it to the test."

Live PTO?

"Thinking about buying this to use with my Ford 8N. Concerned that I don't have live PTO on the tractor and having to run the unit in reverse gear. Any thoughts?"
