I'm sure the Normand comes ready to go now, but we've been selling the Pronovost for the past few seasons and I know they come 100% ready to roll. The supplier of the blower should provide the PTO shaft.
This Normand is a way better blower all around, its industrial quality through and through. The Frontier blower is quality but this blower is the cream of the crop hands down! Normand builds incredible blowers along with Pronovost. The Canadians really know their snow removal!
The JD snowblower is good but not great. I’ve had two - a 48” and a 60” on my 1445. Good for residential and sidewalks. They don’t launch the snow very far at all. I wish I had known of the Normand and Pronovost products.
