Different V-snow Blade Positions

0710, 2023
Are you overwhelmed from the amount of snow you have to remove over the winter? The V-Snow Blade is here for you. It's designed to save time and money that can be passed on to your customers or your bottom line. 
I'm convinced the “V” in “V-Snow Blade” stands for versatile. Its unique positions allow for quick snow removal in some of the worst blizzard conditions. Versatility is the name of the game when you know what jobs are the best fit for this attachment.
DIFFERENT V-SNOW BLADE POSITIONS
You can move a V-Blade into different angles by varying the direction of hydraulic and duration of flow. Each position offers a unique way to move snow.
V-POSITION
Plow through the deepest drifts in the V-position. In this position, commonly used for the first pass, both blades are tight to the skid steer. It minimizes the space needed to effectively maneuver around vehicles in high traffic areas, like parking lots. 
The V-position allows the skid steer to break through snowbanks with ease. It is also used to get into parking lots and large driveways that have been plowed in by municipal plows during large storms.
Think of the front of a train. Often, they're V-shaped to deflect obstacles and push them out of the way, just like the V-Snow Blade.
The V-position also minimizes strain put on the plow and skid steer, allowing you to effectively plow in some nasty road conditions.
ANGLED POSITION
In the angled position, the blade is facing either the left or right side of the skid steer loader. Use this position for windrowing or widening after the first pass.
STRAIGHT POSITION
Use the straight position for removing large windrows or cleaning up at the end of the job. You can also set both blades straight for back dragging from a door. 
SCOOP POSITION
Quickly cleanup leftover trails using the scoop position. It's best for clearing parking lots or other large areas where snow must be pushed straight ahead rather than to the side.
This is the real money saver. You'll find the scoop-position to be useful for many plowing situations. The V-Snow Blade is much faster than an Angle Snow Blade when cleaning up the streets.
