The QA36/42B Snowthrower should mount right up.

It'll fit, but it probably won't be geared quite right (assuming your cyclops has the newer, smaller diameter PTO).

Probably not a huge concern, but performance will decrease.

The QAxxA/B were NOT designed for the Cyclops Series Tractors.

Do you know the diameter of the smaller pto pully? I would like to measure mine.

Yes I agree it is not designed for the cyclops, for now until I get my other blower I hope I can manage to get it going anyway I love a challenge. After all I one had it nstalled on my mtd husky.

1863's have the 6" PTO. My guess is that you will need to put a larger pulley on the blower or you will over speed it.

Thanks Sam Il'l look into that thought, I have to add though on my 1811 it seemed to be slow so maybe a little more speed is what it needs? Lol I wonder what rpm its rated for?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
