  • Hi, this video shows the seasonal attachment of the Berco Snowblower to my John Deere X350 Lawn Tractor. It went a bit longer than I hoped, but just use your forward arrow button to "10 second advance" over the bits that don't interest you!
    Of other interest might be the "Detach Berco Snowblower" if it is springtime. You can find that here: • Detach Berco snowblowe...
    Also, if you need to remove your mower deck, you can see that process here: (soon)
    Finally, if putting on chains, I've got that little video here: (soon)
    Feel free to leave a comment if you have a question, if I can help you out, I'd be happy to do so.

    Great Video Mr. Heffeman, I've got a 05 JD LT150 tractor , the process of Spring removal/Autumn add on, was such a hassle for me as I aged became small nightmare to do. Greatly appreciate some Bercomac owner taking time to show us all how to do this. Thank you sir. I purchased another JD, E130 dedicated to grassmowing, so I dont have that job anymore, happier snowblower now.Thanks again.

    Just doing some research. I plan to pick up a used X300 w/44" Bercomac blower this coming weekend. I enjoyed seeing your clear views of what goes on. Thank you.

    Very good thanks for sharing, hope you get a chance to do a action video. I've been using a jd blower on my x360 seems to work pretty good......I often wished I'd would have got the berco..

      My dealer only carries the Berco, our good fortune. I have a long drive that needs to a good snowblower in the absence of contracting the snow removal. I've seen some options online to put an electronic switch to rotate the chute... would be nice.

    I was looking at the 370 due to the power steering/power lift. My question on the 350 is with the blower attached how do you find the steering effort without power steering?

    • @PatJHeffernan

      @@mrvoyagerm No issues with steering. With the blower lifted, it turns on a dime. With the blower down, you turn fine, as you would expect with the blower down. The only time steering is an issue is if the front wheels are slipping on ice. 350 was great, and we had a large driveway/parking area where we got a lot of snow.

    Oh, I think I will stick with the snowplow for my X350 & continue to use my father's 1999 walk being snow thrower. That looks like allot of things to attach every season. Do you have the snow cab for your X350?

    • @patheffernan3418
      @patheffernan3418  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Really it is about a 10 to 15 min process in the spring and then the fall. It was intimidating the first time, but rather simple after that. But whatever works is great… keep that 1999 snow thrower throwing!! 😌. No snow cab here, have never really thought it necessary… though on a windy day I’ve been known to break out the ski goggles!!

      @@patheffernan3418 - When I bought my X350 January 2016 from the dealer, they suggested I get the plow as I have a gravel driveway. I also wanted a package deal with the plow, weights, chains, cab and bagger as I wanted a 4-season machine. Like my father did with his MTD tractor. But he didn't have the bagger, he had the tow behind sweeper instead. The plow does good at scraping the snow & ice off the drive.

      @@weathermannax416 Sounds awesome!!! We got our drive paved two summers ago which is ideal for the blower. It also allows me to avoid the big pile of snow a plow builds up that lasts half the spring. 👍🏻

      @@weathermannax416 When I was a kid I used Dad's JD 300 with a blower on a 450' gravel driveway and when it was not frozen you could send some gravel away onto the lawn but once frozen no worries. My oldest brother inherited that 1972 machine and used it until he sold it last year. Not too bad eh.

      Hey Will, check the Berco manual that came with the blower, it has a diagram that shows it lines up. Cheers

    We're you adjusting the lift assist spring when you were using the impact to attach the front shackle?

      Not sure what you mean by lift assist spring… the only spring I can think of adjusts tension on the belt to the Power Take-off.

      Look into a lift assist spring. Makes lifting the snowblower a lot easier

      Not really. Takes pretty bad conditions to get stuck. I do use chains.
