Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You clear laneways, farm roads, or municipal paths where you need to cast snow to one side
- Your site has curbs or obstacles — trip-edge protection prevents costly blade and pin damage
- You want hydraulic angle adjustment from the cab without stopping to reposition
⛔ Skip if…
- You're clearing open lots — a box pusher or straight blade is more efficient for pure containment
- Budget is tight and your site is obstacle-free — a straight blade costs less and works fine
🔍 Also consider…
- Straight snow blade if your sites are flat and obstacle-free
- Box snow pusher for high-volume commercial lot clearing
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all skid steer brands via universal SSQA quick attach. No auxiliary hydraulics required — operates off the loader arms.

Care & Maintenance
- Grease all cylinder pin fittings and pivot points before each snow season — cold temperature makes inadequately lubricated joints seize
- Inspect the cutting edge for wear and replace before it's worn through to the blade frame — a thinned edge transfers frost heave impacts directly to the frame and coupler
- Rinse salt off the blade after every use and before any storage period longer than a week — salt attack on bare steel is measurably faster than most operators expect
- Inspect hydraulic angle cylinder hoses before each season and replace any cracked or weathered hoses — cold-hardened hoses split at the worst moment
- Store in a dry location with the cutting edge off wet ground — standing water under a stored blade rusts the edge from below and weakens it before the next season
How to Connect
- Attach blade frame using Bob-Tach
- Connect hydraulic tilt circuit if equipped (many are fixed or manual angle)
- Check trip edge spring tension before working — critical for road/pavement use
⚠ Safety NoteTrip edge is a safety feature — it releases on hidden obstacles. Replace worn trip edge springs annually.
