[QUOTE="RodNH, post: 38889, member: 4512"] I have a new Bobcat SB200 72" snowblower. There is a separate steel plate that partially blocks the upper left quadrant of the fan opening. The bolts that hold this plate in place are in slotted holes in that plate. These slotted holes permit between 1/2 and 3/4 of an inch horizontal adjustment of this plate. The as-delivered position of this plate is as far to the left as the adjustment permits, yielding the maximum opening to the fan. The promotional literature for this blower indicates the following: [I][B]"The fan opening is adustable, allowing the operator to control the amount of air and snow entering the efficient 6-inch deep fan."[/B][/I] There is no mention of such an adjustment in the Bobcat O&M manual for the blower. The dealer has no idea what such an adjustment is all about. My request to have the factory rep address this adjustment resulted in the dealer's expressed opinion that the factory rep was not particularly suited for such matters! Does anyone here have a handle on this adjustment? When would I want to change it? How is the performance modified by doing so? Thanks, Rod [/QUOTE]
