• Designed for John Deere 47-inch and 54-inch front mount snow blowers as a complete upgrade from the factory hydraulic cylinder and cable-pulley chute rotation system

• Converts the stock 180-degree chute rotation (90 degrees left and right from center) to a full 320 degrees total, allowing snow discharge up to 160 degrees in either direction including directly behind the tractor

• Simplifies the complex factory setup by eliminating the hydraulic cylinder, cables, and pulleys and replacing them with a compact hydraulic motor and chain and sprocket drive

• The chain-drive design is nearly maintenance free and only requires light lubrication and a quick tension check from time to time

• Uses a bearing-mounted tensioner gear for consistent and accurate chain tracking unlike competitor kits that rely on plastic blocks that wear quickly and cause alignment issues

• Features a fully enclosed chain guard for safety, debris protection, and a clean finished appearance

• Includes precision machined and threaded standoffs for the chain guard with flange head bolts that make it easy to remove for maintenance or inspection

• The chute rotates smoothly on a durable poly disc bearing surface that reduces friction and wear for consistent operation

• Includes the block-off plate that replaces the factory bent V-metal plate at no additional charge for a clean and complete installation

• Built from heavy duty steel and finished in satin black powder coat to complement both yellow and green John Deere blowers for a factory-style appearance

• Push Industries is a USA-based and owned company built by tractor and equipment enthusiasts who design, test, and use the same products they sell and take pride in quality, reliability, and service after the sale

The Push Industries 118.645 Chain-Drive 320° Chute Rotation Conversion Kit upgrades John Deere 47-inch and 54-inch front mount snow blowers by replacing the factory hydraulic-cylinder-and-cable rotation system with a compact hydraulic motor and chain drive.
The standard John Deere system uses a hydraulic cylinder that pulls a cable through multiple pulleys. It is overly complex and includes several moving parts that wear out over time. Cables stretch, pulleys seize, and the system eventually requires adjustment or replacement. The Push Industries design eliminates all of that with a simple, durable hydraulic motor that directly powers a #40 chain and sprocket.
This system is drastically simpler, stronger, and nearly maintenance free. A light lubrication and occasional chain tension check are all that is needed. The chain runs inside a fully enclosed guard for safety and protection. A bearing-mounted tensioner gear keeps the chain tracking perfectly while resisting wear and eliminating slack. Competing kits often rely on plastic blocks that wear quickly and cause alignment problems.
The upgrade increases total chute rotation from 180 degrees to 320 degrees, giving 160 degrees of movement in either direction. This expanded range allows snow to be directed completely behind the tractor for better control and cleaner results.
Additional features include threaded standoffs with flange head bolts for easy service, a poly disc bearing surface for smooth chute rotation, and a block-off plate that replaces the factory bent V-metal plate at no extra cost.
Built from heavy duty steel and finished in satin black powder coat, the kit resists corrosion and matches the look of both yellow and green John Deere blowers.
