7 Great Bobcat® Snow Removal Equipment Attachments
The long, cold winters here in western New York result in a great deal of lake-effect snow. This means that anyone hoping to get any work done outside in the winter is going to need a way to clear all that heavy, wet snow away from their worksite. If you have a farm, then you’ll also want to be able to clear away snow quickly and efficiently in order to tend to livestock and perform other tasks.
Fortunately, if you’ve already got Bobcat equipment, then the company has the answer for you in their wide range of snow removal attachments. Bobcat of Buffalo in Lockport is proud to be your western New York Bobcat equipment dealer. Here are seven options for snow removal attachments for your Bobcat equipment so you always have options.
1. Snowblower
This high-powered tool is useful for clearing paths and moving large drifts of snow out of the way as efficiently as possible. The snowblower attachment can cut through even deep drifts, tossing the snow to any direction using the adjustable deflector. Blast away the snow on roads, driveways, parking lots and even sidewalks. The snowblower attachment can even handle compacted snow and heavy snowfalls.
2. Snow Blade
This angled attachment helps you to push and move snow easily, and you can adjust the angle of the blades using a control in your cab. Because the blade oscillates as it moves to remain in contact with the surface being cleared, you shouldn’t need to make multiple passes in order to clear away snow. This tool is best for lighter snows.
3. V-Blade
Need a more versatile blade? The V-blade attachment is designed to shove snow to either side with twin blades that are hydraulically operated. The V-blade can pile snow up high or scoop it up to deposit it elsewhere.
4. Snow Pusher
A boxy attachment, the snow pusher has an open bottom and wide body to maximize snow removal. You can easily clean up snow and push it forward and out of the way with the snow pusher attachment. The blade even floats to let you follow ground contours and bumpy terrain without damaging the attachment.
5. Angle Broom
This must-have tool can efficiently sweep a clean path through the snow with its hydraulically-driven broom attachments. You won’t damage pavement with the angle broom because of its softer bristles that come in a wavy pattern to do a better job. This compact attachment reduces the effort needed to clear away snow and it’s great for sweeping snow away from curbsides, corners, buildings and other obstacles without doing damage to your equipment or the obstacle.
6. Scraper
Got hard-packed ice or snow that’s weighing you down? Use a scraper attachment to chip away at that snow until you can break it down. This tool scrapes along the ground and breaks up packed materials. Ice and snow will be no match for this tough, sharp tool.
7. Spreader
Once you’ve cleared your snow away, you’ll need to spread sand or salt to help melt what’s left. The spreader attachment can be easily filled with loose material to distribute over a large area. The all-poly hopper can handle the gritty and tough sand or salt without taking damage, too.
