Snow Plow Mounted On Back Of Pickup
 ✖  |
I build a snow plow that mounts on back of a pickup and can be converted into a bale mover. When used together with a conventional front-mount plow it reduces plowing time by two thirds. Works great to remove snow in an enclosed area or next to a garage door or wall, etc. You simply back up to a wall, drop the blades, and drive forward. Because you're pulling snow, you never have to turn the pickup around in order to "back drag" snow. The plow can raised up to 43 in. high, allowing you to easily remove even large drifts. Up to 1,450 lbs. of downpressure can be applied to the blade which is enough to clear even hard-packed snow. It's also the only rear plow on the market that can be tripped forward to avoid damage by hidden obstacles in the plowing area.
To convert to a bale mover, just remove three pins. The bale mover and snow plow can be sold separately, or as a set. (Ed Altheide, Snowman Snowplow, Inc., Box 78, Bloomfield, Iowa 52537; ph 888 766-6267; fax 515 664-3438)
