Racinbob 11,040 #2 Posted November 15, 2016 The 42st01 is the model #. That is for a C-series. It will also work on the 3-500 series and B's until 1978. You're good to go with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,032 #3 Posted November 15, 2016 Going by your serial number and build date this should be the snowthrower in question Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 17,662 #5 Posted November 16, 2016 Plowing is by far faster...however if you get a lot of snow you can run out of place to push it, then I get the blower out to make some space.(or if you get more than foot dropped at once) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,040 #6 Posted November 16, 2016 I bought a 1976 B-80 new with that very blower. With the 8hp the dealers were instructed not to install the side wings. It worked great. Later I converted that tractor to a C-160 and put the wings on. Having several tractors the 16hp had the blower on it in the winter and I had a blade on a GT-1100. The blade was a lot more fun but being in the lake effect area in Indiana the blower was needed at times for the very reason Paul mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
