New snow pusher attachment from Bobcat enables compact equipment operators to push a larger volume of snow
(08/11/2007)

When needing to clear a large amount of snow from parking lots, industrial grounds, and constructions sites, operators have a new snow removal solution: the snow pusher attachment from Bobcat Company.

The new snow pusher attachment enables compact equipment operators to push a larger volume of snow, thus allowing them to do more work in less time. The end wings on the attachment keep the snow within the width of the attachment and prevent it from spilling over the sides, consequently eliminating any additional cleanup.

The attachment is available in two sizes, 94- and 120-inch widths, and is approved for Bobcat® skid-steer loaders (models S130 through S300), compact track loaders (models T140 through T300), all-wheel steer loaders, and Toolcat™ utility work machines.

Among its features is a free floating blade, which allows the snow pusher to follow the contour of the ground. The snow pusher's blade is capable of floating up to 2.3 inches vertically and tilting 12 degrees with a +/- 4.5-degree oscillation. In addition, the attachment is equipped with abrasion-resistant skid shoes and a rubber cutting edge to protect pavement surfaces. A rear cutting-edge support provides maximum durability by not only strengthening the cutting edge, but also the entire moldboard.

Attaching the snow pusher to loaders or Toolcat utility work machines can be done easily and quickly with the Bob-Tach™ mounting system. An optional Power Bob-Tach™ mounting system enables operators to switch between attachments, such as the snow pusher, bucket, or angle broom, without leaving the comforts of the cab.
