How to choose Snow Rakes

 Snow rakes are durable, rugged tools used in snow removal. Snow rakes are heavy tools for the amount of force they can generate, so it is important to pay attention to safety.

• Is the handle long enough for the user? Snow rakes are heavy, so it’s important to pay attention to the length of the handle. The handle should be long enough for the user to easily extend their arms when pushing the snow out of the path.
• Is the handle sturdy? Most snow rakes have metal handles, but some manufacturers make them out of fiberglass. Fiberglass handles tend to work better than metal ones, but steel handles are more durable overall.
•  Is the handle padded? Snow rakes can be dangerous if they aren’t properly padded, especially when the tips hit hard surfaces. Some snow rakes come with cushioned handles, which can reduce the risk of injury.
• Is there sufficient padding between the prongs? Many snow rakes have prongs that are spaced too closely together. The spacing should be wide enough for the user to easily place their feet between the prongs, even when they are pushed forward.
• Are there enough prongs? Most snow rakes come with 8-10 prongs, but some contain 12 or 16. The fewer prongs, the easier it will be for the user to push snow out of the path.
• Does the rake have smooth edges? If the prongs are sharp, they can cause damage to the user’s feet.
• Is the rake lightweight enough? Most snow rakes weigh around 15 pounds, but they can be heavier. If the rake is too heavy, the user may tire quickly, which can be dangerous.
• Is the handle comfortable? Snow rake handles are made from metal, fiberglass, or plastic. Most snow rakes come with metal handles, which are more durable overall.

How to maintain Snow Rakes

Snow rakes are used to remove snow and ice from driveways, sidewalks, and walkways. They are most effective when used on packed snow, but can be used on wet, powdery snow. Snow rakes can also effectively remove ice from sidewalks.

• Keep the blades sharp, clean, and free from rust.
• Avoid hitting the ice with the tines.
• Avoid hitting the asphalt, concrete, or mulched areas with the blades.
•  Avoid using the rake if it was raining or snowing when you started using the rake.
• Periodically check the outer wheels for signs of wear.
• Store your snow rakes out of direct sunlight.
