"The Kid" scored a 60" Arps tractor snowblower at an auction today...
He wants to run it on his skid steer. Just cut off the three point, put on a hydraulic motor and mount plate. His question, which hydraulic motor?
He's got 10.5 GPM at 2000PSI on the skid steer. The blower should run
500 RPM. OK, I'd do 10gpm*231 in3/gal is 2310 in3/min 2310in3/500 is 4.6in3 motorWhat hp will he get to the blower? I got 13hp but I'm probably doing something wrong so I won't share my work At any rate, I'm telling him he's going to be limited on blowing power. My 72" PTO blower can bring a 60 horse tractor to its knees.
