BladeReference
The blade and snowblower required the front hitch kit (190-343-100). A rear tiller with its own 8-hp engine was available (190-400-100). A rear 2000-rpm PTO (190-287-100) was advertised for 1998 with a PTO-drive 40-inch tiller (190-356-100) but is extremely rare. A hydraulic-drive tiller (190-004-100) became available in 2000 with the next series of 3000 tractors.Reference
