Efficient and Profitable Commercial Snow Removal
Commercial snow plowing is not for the weak hearted. You have to be able to endure the harsh winter environments, surprise snowfalls, customer issues, and employee relations. The last thing that you want to do is spend time fixing your snow removal equipment. You can trust that Kage Innovation is ‘clearing’ your way from hassles with your plowing equipment. Purchase Kage Snow Removal Equipment for your skid steer, wheel loader, or tractor and spend less time fixing obvious design flaws common to so many other brands of snow removal attachments. Kage Innovations’ two in one tool combines the trustworthy rigidity of snow pushers with the versatility of an angle plow.
Snow Pushers For Equipment
Many contractors have found that by using snow pushers on equipment such as skid steers, wheel loaders, and ag tractors yields a good result due to the increased productivity by moving mass quantities of snow.
Skid Steer Pusher: The Per Cubic Yard Workhorse of Snow Removal
Snow Pushers are used across north America and Canada, and have become increasingly popular since Protech Manufacturing introduced and Sno Pusher. Since then, many other manufacturers have modeled products after the basic and rigid design that Pro-tech adapted on their original. Manufacturers such as Arctic, Scoop Dogg, Avalanche, SnowWolf, and many others offer the basic rubber edged pusher good for moving mass quantities of snow with skid steers, wheel loaders, and tractors. Sno pushers are rigid, and usually very heavy duty. They are also very basic and have very few moving parts so it is fairly uncommon to break something.
Drawbacks to common snow pushers
The common rubber edged snow pusher manufactured by companies such as Avalanche, Arctic, Scoop Dogg, and SnowWolf have some serious disadvantages. The rubber edge does not scrape the pavement. Since it does not clean the surface properly, you are forced to pour on more salt, or come by with something else such as trucks to scrape the lot down to the asphalt. They also typically utilize ridged side panels and steel shoes attached to them. This inhibits the operator from getting the right pitch adjustment, and further increases the amount of snow left behind by the rubber edge because the side panels are either holding the edge off the ground, or allowing spillage from the ends. Common snow pushers also do not oscillate or follow the contours of the parking lot, making the end result even less desirable. Finally, the sno pusher does not angle. This means that when the pusher ‘fills’ up, the snow dribbles out from both ends. This method of pushing forces you to double plow everything because you have to go back and pick up the snow trails left from the spillage.
Solution to common problems with snow pushers
The ultimate snowfighter weapon is something durable and trustworthy like the snow pusher, but with the ability to windrow, backdrag, scrape and stack– all in one tool. The Kage System is that perfect weapon. It allows you to angle plow and backdrag using the angle plow. Then, on a whim, you can clip on the SnowKage Box to the angle plow, without leaving the cab. Now you can snow push with your ‘pusher’, all the while scraping cleanly with the same implement. Never leaving the cab to switch attachments.
