Good morning all:

 

I'm hoping someone can steer me in the right direction. I just picked up a Deutz Allis cab that came off a Deutz 916 Hydro. Cab is like brand new, fits like a glove. My issue is the chute control handle. It does not even come close to where the opening right above the lift rod opening is. Lift rod and spring fits nicely through the slot in the canvas. But the handle is so far off, to the right and short. You can see in the photo how far off the chute control handle is in alignment with the cab opening. No the handle is not bent at all. I have seen other Simplicity snow blowers with the chute control handle in the identical position.

we cant help until you give us pictures of this fancy new cab and the tractor . ( just so we can drool over it ! hahaha )

is there any way to bend it and extend it ? or you could cut a hole in your new cab   ( kidding of course )

Hi RMCIII, congrats on getting a nice cab you'll like it when blowing snow. Don't know about Simplicity cabs but the Sears cabs I have are the samw way the lift handle will not fit in the slot the chute one does somewhat, on the Sears cabs there is a slotted opening and I reach thur that to operate the lift works ok.

Is there a slot in the right door to put your hand through to turn the handle? I'm guessing from the photo that yours is a soft sided cab. On my cab this slot has a flap over it.

A few more photos attached. It may be that I need to reach through the cab like MNGB mentioned.

yea, we are gonna need a side profile shot ... just to be sure .

 thats a good lookin setup !

seems like you could make a custom bolt on ( to the middle ) with a bend in it

[grattone]

What is the opening on the other side and can your hardware (out front) be move to the to the other side? On my 7010 the lift handle can be on either side.

Good solution.  

I should do the same thing so I don't have to keep sticking my hand outside. 

[RMCIII]

That is a really neat set up city! 1 thing though I have also noticed. On the older model snow blowers the handle seems to be straighter. Mine kicks out at an angle because of where the bracket that holds the handle is located. It is not bent, it is just how it is mounted. I need to overcome that also now.
