HLA 3500X Series 96-Inch Expandable Snow Pusher for Skid Steers
View on hlasnow.com →
Overview
The HLA 3500X Series is an expandable snow pusher — the pusher can hydraulically extend and contract its width, allowing a single attachment to cover varying clearing widths depending on the job. This flexibility is valuable for Canadian commercial operators working both open lots and areas with obstacles where a fixed-width pusher is too wide. Ontario-built by HLA Attachments. The 3500X maintains balanced cylinder performance and a trip-edge for frost heave protection.
Canada Availability
Available in Canada through HLA Attachments and HLA Snow dealers. Ontario-manufactured by Horst Welding.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You push snow on flat commercial lots, parking decks, or loading docks with a defined push perimeter
- You don't have room or budget for a blower — pushers cost far less and maintain well
⛔ Skip if…
- Your site has no windrow drop zone — pushers pile snow that has to go somewhere
- Wet, heavy Ontario snow is your primary challenge — heavy packs reduce machine traction with a full pusher
🔍 Also consider…
- Sectional pusher if your site has frost heaves or uneven pavement you need the wings to follow
- Snow blower attachment if bank height from repeated pushes is becoming a problem
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all skid steer brands via universal SSQA quick attach. No auxiliary hydraulics required — operates off the loader arms.
