Sectional Sno-Plow’s Slip-Hitch automatically adjusts the Sectional Sno-Plow to the pavement and enables the Sectional Sno-Plow to float up and down freely from the machine, while continuously adjusting to the pavement. The Slip-Hitch assures that all four tires remain on the pavement, providing the machine full traction and no drag, according to the manufacturer.
With no additional drag, the Sectional Sno-Plow can quickly push snow across large parking lots. The mechanical side panels rest flat on the surface automatically every time.
The Sectional Sno-Plow’s design includes a spring loaded trip cutting edge and four polyurethane mounting blocks, and enables each moldboard section to travel upward and downward to easily trip over obstacles up to 9 in. high. The mechanical side panels move upward and downward upon impact to clear obstacles hidden beneath snow. With the independence of each mould board section it allows the plow to closely follow the contour of the asphalt.
The Sectional Sno-Plow also reduces costly repairs, according to the manufacturer.
Snow pushers with fixed side panels are difficult for an operator to adjust the wear shoes to lay flat on the pavement. This constant incorrect alignment results in premature shoe wear and greatly reduces plowing efficiencies. Should a steel cutting edge get damaged only one edge needs to be replaced, rather than replacing several feet of costly steel or rubber cutting edge.
The available sizes are light duty model range from (32 in. [81 cm] high) 8 to 14 ft. (2.4 to 4.3 m) wide. The heavy duty model is (46 in. [117 cm] high) 12 to 26 ft. (3.6 to 8 m) wide.
