What snow thrower do I have?

[jsuneb]

Hello,
When I bought my house the prior owner left me a Cub Cadet 1861 with a snow thrower attachment. I love the tractor and am going to keep it as long as I can. The snow thrower is a bit of overkill for the small driveway I have (plus I have 4 shovelers that I get to claim as dependents each year). As a result I put the thrower on CL to sell.
I have someone interested in the thrower. He asked me what series the thrower is. I can't seem to find this however. Based on the sticker the model is 190-551-100.
Can anyone tell me what series this is? Can you give me any more details on the thrower?
Specifically an owner's manual and/or a list of compatible tractors this will work with.

Picture of the model sticker attached.

Here is the link to my CL ad:

Thanks in advance,
Jason

The blower you have is a Cub Cadet 551 blower. Below is a link to the partstree site that shows the machines the blower is compatible with. You have a very nice blower there (although it could use some paint) but I do feel your price is a bit high. I don't know what they go for in you area but I've picked up a 451 twice now (the previous generation of your blower), one for $400 and one for $250 so prices can vary depending on who has it and if they know what it is. Good lucking finding a nice home for your blower

Edit: Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that blower 45" and not 48"?

I agree.

Thanks all for the great answers! It was hard for me to find good pricing data so I made sure that I didn't short myself.
But, hey, it's Craigslist so no one is going to want to pay the asking price anyways.

I would think that the four dependents would want to use this attachment to make a couple of bucks with in the winter time.
