Just remember out auxillary hydraulics are much more limited than a PTO horsepower. For instance my 751 h a 38hp engine but only flows 13gpm at 2550psi which is a hydraulic horspower of only 19-20hp same as what your pto would be. What RPM is the attachment rated at? 540 or 1000?
Here is a calculator

Should be 540 for the blower the blower was ran with 18 hp pto before but my tractor is just a little too light
