Overview
HLA's 3230 Snow Wing is a hydraulic wing snow blade that expands from 8 to 13 feet wide using powered wing extensions. The adjustable width lets operators widen the blade for open lots and narrow it for tighter aisles and service roads without dismounting. Built by Horst Welding in Canada and sold through Canadian dealers including GLC Equipment. Available with standard SSQA skid steer mount or Euro/ALO/Global mount for large tractors. A practical choice for operators managing variable-width properties.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You clear flat open lots, loading docks, or laneways and want the lowest-cost blade option
- Your site has a natural drop zone and you push in one direction — no angling needed
- You're adding snow clearing to a machine you already own without a big attachment investment
⛔ Skip if…
- You need to cast snow to one side or work curbed areas — an angle blade handles that better
- You clear large commercial lots — a box pusher moves more snow per pass
🔍 Also consider…
- Angle/trip-edge snow blade for road clearing with directional control
- Box snow pusher for large commercial parking lots
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Wide attachment — verify your machine's rated operating capacity (ROC) before ordering. Compatible with all skid steer brands via universal SSQA quick attach — no auxiliary hydraulics required.

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.
