UNIQUE FEATURES
Angled Power Rib
Unique to HD Series snowplows, an angled Power Rib delivers additional muscle to an exceptionally strong unit.
Tubular Steel A-Frame
The tubular steel A-frame and large center pin provide added durability to withstand punishing conditions.
Quad Design
The massive quad design contributes to torsional strength for enhanced plowing performance and equipment reliability. This is truly the power behind your plow.
Responsive Hydraulics
Custom designed and built in-house, the snowplow's responsive, super-fast hydraulics provide quick maneuvering in the field.
Formed Base Channel
The formed base channel is the backbone of the plow, built with high-strength steel and multiple angles for extra stability.
Full-Trip Moldboard
A full-trip moldboard with four coil springs helps protect you, your plow and your truck when striking obstacles.
Steel Cutting Edge
A 6" hardened steel cutting edge provides long-lasting performance and delivers a clean scraping action.
Easy Access Components Cover
Hydraulic components are protected with a durable poly cover that is easy to remove for quick maintenance access.
Removable Receiver Brackets
Self-aligning, removable receiver brackets provide exceptional ground clearance when the snowplow is off the truck.
TRACTOR COMPATIBLE MOUNT KIT
Designed for easy installation onto a wide range of tractor models, these mount kits make it possible for the 7’6″ – 9′ Heavy-Duty straight blades to fit on a compact tractor. They are flared both vertically and horizontally to ensure proper alignment and make the drive-in connection easier. The push beam, which makes up the front portion of the mount, can be quickly detached to allow for a loader attachment.
STANDARD PLOW FEATURES
STORM SEEKER™ PLOW HEADLIGHTS
Available in both LED and Dual Halogen models, STORM SEEKER™ plow headlights are engineered and tested for maximum light output, performance and durability to keep you ahead of the storm.
AUTOMATIXX® ATTACHMENT SYSTEM
The Automatixx attachment system provides fast and easy snowplow hook-up that can all be handled from one side of the truck.
SCRAPE MAXX™ DOWN-FORCE KIT
Scrape Maxx™ down-force is an exclusive, standard feature that gives SnowEx truck plows the ability to apply downward force to bust through hard pack and maximize to-the-pavement scraping performance. Every SnowEx truck plow provides the Scrape Maxx feature to provide the right amount of force for clean plowing.
*Not available for UTV plows
DIRECT LIFT
Direct lift system gives the plow a responsive full range of motion for efficient stacking and transport.
FLEET FLEX ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The FLEET FLEX electrical system provides complete fleet interchangeability. Any SnowEx plow can be used on any truck.
CONTROL OPTIONS
Choose between the POWER GRIP™ control with backlit buttons or the compact joystick control. Both feature power “on” and float LEDs and are FLEET FLEX system enabled. An intuitive hand-held controller makes it easy to raise, lower and angle the blade or wings at the touch of a button. Custom hydraulics, designed and produced in-house to maintain quality control, provide excellent maneuverability in the field. And a responsive direct-lift system aids in efficient stacking and transport.
SECURITY GUARD™
The SECURITY GUARD™ anti-theft system electronically secures your snowplow from unauthorized use when detached from the truck.
POWERCOAT FINISH
Our high-performance, multi-stage powder coat system provides a long-lasting, maintenance-free finish.
PRE-PUNCHED BLADES FOR ACCESSORIES
The blade is pre-punched for easy installation of accessories, providing a custom fit. The pre-punched holes also prevent damage to the powder coat that can sometimes occur when installing an accessory.
