Buyer Guide Snow Plows
Choosing the right snow plow for your needs isn’t always easy, but follow this guide and you’ll be sure to make the right choice.- Snow Plows: Snow plows are versatile tools that come in two basic types: front-mounted and back-mounted. Front-mounted plows are also known as front runners, while back-mounted plows are also known as rippers.
- Snow Plow Types. Front-mounted snow plows are also known as front runners.
- Snow Plow Types. Back-mounted snow plows are also known as rippers.
- Front-Mounted Snow Plows. Front-mounted snow plows, also known as front runners, are compact, lightweight, and streamlined. The most common front-mounted snow plow is the plow frame.
- Back-Mounted Snow Plows. Back-mounted snow plows, also known as rippers, are bigger and heavier than front-mounted snow plows. The most common back-mounted snow plow is the floating frame.
- Floating Frame. The floating frame is a type of back-mounted snow plow that rotates around the plow frame, rather than moving from side to side.
How to choose Snow Plows
When buying snow plows, its important to weigh different factors and choose the one that best fits your needs.- What is the weight of your snow? The bigger the snow, the bigger the snow plow you will need. You should invest in a plow that is designed to handle a heavier amount of snow.
- What is the shape of the plow? Some plows, such as V-shaped plows, are better at clearing snow from hills.
- What is the length of your plow? The longer the plow, the more snow it will be able to clear at a time.
- Does it have an angled blade? Angled plow blades are better at pushing snow back down the hill.
- Can you adjust the blade? A plow with an adjustable angle and position will allow you to adjust the blade angle depending on your needs.
- Does the plow have an adjustable blade? Adjusting the angle of the blade is especially important in rural areas, as there may be uneven terrain.
- Does it have skid plates? Skid plates protect the blade from damage.
- Can you choose between hydraulic and electric? Hydraulic lift brakes are easier to use, but electric lift brakes are more cost-effective.
- Can you choose between forward and reverse? With forward, the plow clears the snow in front of the blade. With reverse, the plow clears the snow behind the blade.
How to maintain Snow Plows
Snow plows are essential tools for keeping roads clear during the winter season. However, they can be dangerous if they are not maintained properly.- Inspect plows regularly. Snow plows should be inspected at least weekly to ensure that they are safe to use.
- Replace worn parts. Over time, snow plows can become worn and damaged. Many parts can be easily replaced by professional mechanics.
- Fill in holes and cracks. Snow plows can plow into holes and cracks in the road, causing large chunks of ice to become dislodged. These large chunks of ice can endanger drivers on the road. These areas should be filled in with a material such as sand, gravel, or salt to prevent this.
- Change the oil. Over time, oil can break down and become less effective. Poorly maintained oil can cause snow plows to become less effective, increasing the risk of accidents.
- Change spark plugs. Snow plows use spark plugs to ignite the fuel. These plugs can become worn out over time or can break down. Uneven ground or debris can clog the spark plugs, causing them to burn out.
- Drain antifreeze. Antifreeze is used to prevent freezing in snow plows. Over time, antifreeze can break down and begin to lose its ability to effectively prevent freezing. In order to prevent this, antifreeze should be drained and replaced every few years.
- Remove snow. Snow can be extremely heavy, and it can cause snow plows to become unbalanced, which can increase the risk of accidents. To avoid this, the snow should be removed before snow plows can be used.
- Clean the plow. In order to prevent corrosion and rust from forming, snow plows should be cleaned regularly. Greasy and muddy areas should be cleaned regularly.
