Our plow is great for moving snow but it can also be used to move other things as well. I use it frequently for moving brush and tree branches and I’ve also used it for moving gravel and light grading. I know other folks who use plows on utility vehicles to clean out barns and move other animal waste Our plow has 3 horizontal pushing angles that are easily adjusted with the spring loaded ‘ t ’ handle. The vertical angle is almost infinitely adjustable with moveable, bolted on adjusting blocks. The pre-load on the trip springs are adjustable, so you can make the resistance appropriate for the loads you’re pushing and the surface you’re driving on. |

Springs Trip Springs are the springs that hold the plow blade in the upright position. When you hit a solid obstacle on the ground (maybe a curb or raised expansion crack in the road or driveway), the springs allow the plow to rotate forward so the plow can pass over the obstacle without passing the force of impact through the vehicle. |

| Installation Initial set-up of the plow is a piece of cake, and all the parts you need are included. Very basic mechanical skills and simple wrenches are required. A trained monkey probably couldn’t do it, but our interns can – so you know it’s easy. After initial set-up, the plow can be removed or re-installed without any tools. Two 5/8” clevis pins are all that hold the plow to the vehicle. Remove the pins, and the plow’s push tube releases from the vehicle. Piece of cake Raising and lowering the plow The plow is raised and lowered from the safety and comfort of the cab of the vehicle by an electric winch. |

| Electric
Winch It’s a 2,000lb winch, and the 50 foot cable comes with a steel hook on the end. It’ll easily pull the vehicle up hills and out of sticky situations, even with a load in the back (depending on how steep the hill, or how sticky the situation, sometimes the load has to be taken out of the dump bed). The winch mounts neatly under the hood, behind the front bumper. Power is provided by the vehicles electric system, and all the wiring and parts needed are included with the package. The winch activator switch can be located just about anywhere in the cab. I cut a hole in the plastic dash with a Dremel tool and mounted my switch within easy reach. It can also be bolted to some of the exposed frame members in the cab, thus eliminating the need for cutting the dash. However, cutting the dash really easy and looks so much nicer… |
