Arnold Universal Snow Thrower Cab 490-241-0032 Black

Soooo, lot’s of reviews about this cover.Some good, some not so good. Here’s the skinny on this. I’m an elevator mechanic for a living so i’m well adapted in the garage and around tools. If you’re into working on your own stuff, you won’t have any issues assembling and installing it on your snowblower. It will however give you a run for your money if your not paying attention to the directions. I read a lot of complaints about the wrinkles in the clear plastic due to shipping. So before I did anything, I grabbed a large bath towel, got it wet and ringed it out, and then put the wife’s ironing board and iron [carefully] to work. This actually did help quit a bit (and took quite a bit of time) I would recommend this. It didn’t take out every little wrinkle, but it definitely helped with a lot of large creases. I was able to assemble the cab alone. After assembly, tried using a heat gun on low to remove some small wrinkles. If that helped any, I didn’t notice. It took two of us to mount it to the Cub Cadet snowblower. Figuring out where you want it to mount and where it will be sitting is as tricky as it gets. It definitely pays to have another set of hands for this part as it is unwieldy. Once we got it all bolted up it seemed pretty sturdy. I think I will drill and through bolt the bracket where it clamps to the downtubes just to keep it from twisting/sliding during use as I can see that may become a problem. Remember, this is a universal cover. If you have a single headlight, this cover may work fine for you with it’s zipper flap that allows the light to remain uncovered. It you have the newer duel LED light’s like the Cub has, this won’t work for you. Honestly, I’m just going to grab a large pair of shears and cut the cover where the lights go. Maybe duct tape or a few zip ties/bungie cords to hold it in place to the lights. If you don’t do this, the light will reflect back into your face from the inside. Or just don’t use your lights. We didn’t find that the wrinkles obstructed our view as bad as some others stated. Let’s face it, i’m not driving down the highway, it’s just moving snow. By the way, it also has a little storage bag that hangs down from the inside bracket so you can stuff your hat or gloves in there. Pros: No more snow dust Keeps you out of the wind, dry, and a lot warmer Fit’s most anything Good buy for the money Easy for the handy person to assemble It’s universal Cons: Can be difficult to assemble for the “not so handy” You’ll most likely need to do something to help get rid of wrinkles. You’ll most likely have to do something for the headlights if putting on a newer model machine. It’s universal

I’m not sure why, but when it snows where I live it is always windy and the snow gets blown right back into my face when I’m clearing my driveway. This cover worked great for my cub cadet 3X snow blower. Assembly wasn’t difficult, but I highly recommend finding the video online and watching them assemble it because when you have to find the tabs on the inside of this thing they’re damn near impossible to find unless you’re watching the video. But, this thing kept the snow from blowing back in my face and I love it.

Works very well and was easy to assemble Price point was good too

Quality product and easy to assemble by a single person. It also arrived 2 days before expected. I hope it last.
