Akestner 36 #1 Posted June 24, 2016 So I purchased a dozer blade at the show but I've realized now the one that I have had the handle for hydro and not the 8 speed so could someone tell me the part number for it or maybe point me in the direction to buy one I might try the show again tomorrow but they didn't have much to choose from for blades and parts for them then again I wasn't really looking to hard at the handles seems like every time I think I get them figured out there's something a little different about them I didn't realize Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,031 #2 Posted June 25, 2016 Not aware of a different handle for the hydro models. Most can be turned around so the offset is reversed. Garry Adding Take a look at page 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,518 #3 Posted June 26, 2016 If you're looking for the offset, you can cut and weld a bit of the flatbar. Will lower the handle a little but won't be noticeable to the operator. I've not seen a hydro vs. 8-speed difference in lift linkage or angle handles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walt 339 #5 Posted July 25, 2016 I recently mounted a blade on my 1980 1100 special that a neighbor gave me. The handle was bent away from from tractor which made it hit brake pedal keeping it from angling to the left. When trying to reverse it so bend was towards tractor the pin release mounting hole was not on center of bar so that did not work. I ended up putting handle in my bench vice and reversing the bends to fit my tractor. If this is similar to the issue you are having let me know and I'll expand on how I did it and see if I can load a picture of it now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
