I just bought a used BX2537 sweeper to use on my new concrete driveway when the snowfall is not too much. Don't want to scratch that concrete with my blower skid shoes. I hooked it up on my quick hitch and used the PTO shaft from my snowblower. When I got it spinning the broom is going the wrong way spitting debris towards the tractor and me. Is there an easy fix to this. Is the gearbox interchangeable? Should my Kubota dealer not realized this? Thanks

Sadly your dealer isn't... well... informed.
That sweeper will not work you need to get a GF3250.
A GF is just a reverse tractor, everything runs off of what would normally be the rear of a normal tractor.

Found a used GF3250 online without quick hitch. Any pics out there as to how it fits the GF1800 on older machines. The 3250 is an older model. What do I need for mounting.
Thanks
