## Summary
Virnig Manufacturing introduces a new cold planer attachment designed for skid and track loaders with 26-50 GPM flow. Its intuitive controls work across brands, enabling fast accurate asphalt milling by operators of all skill levels. Features include up to 6-in. cut depth, 12-degree tilt, direct drive motor and optional water tank for dust control.

[Virnig Manufacturing](https://www.constructionequipmentguide.com/virnig-equipment-for-sale/)'s new cold planer attachment is engineered to make asphalt milling and surface removal faster and easier, especially for operators with minimal experience, according to Virnig.

Inexperienced operators can slow crews down, and most OEM planers only work with a single loader brand. Virnig's cold planer solves both problems with a plug-and-play design and intuitive controls which use the loader's existing joystick buttons.

Operators can cycle through all core functions with one button and activate them with another. A live display shows which function is active, so there's no need to memorize button sequences, according to Virnig.

## Seamless Across Mixed Fleets

This control system also works across skid and track loaders from different brands, making it easy for crews to switch loaders and stay productive. This is ideal for mixed fleets, rental operations and municipal crews, allowing any operator start milling accurately within minutes, according to Virnig.

"Not every crew has an experienced planer or skid steer operator," said Tyler Monson, product manager. "The Virnig cold planer makes clean, precise milling easy for anyone. We demoed it with someone who never operated a skid steer before, and they were productive within minutes. This planer helps companies stay on schedule and reduce downtime."

## Designing to Perform

Engineered for high-flow skid steer and track loaders with 26–50 GPM of flow, the cold planer combines power and durability to handle asphalt and concrete:

• Up to 6-in. cut depth to finish sections faster with fewer passes.

• Up to 12-degree tilt capability for clean edges along curbs and slopes.

• Direct drive piston motor for more torque on tough jobs.

• Self-leveling floating frame for uniform passes every time.

• Replaceable AR400 skid shoes and cut-depth indicators for durability and easy maintenance.

• Pressure gauge for max productivity.

• Optional 55-gal. water tank for dust suppression and better visibility.

• Replaceable carbide or concrete picks for versatility across materials.
