Read on to discover three of the must have skid steer attachments for snow!
Snow Blades
Snow blades are a great versatile attachment for skid steers. We made our Heavy Duty Series 2 Multi-Purpose Blade for commercial contractors. This is great for large applications and also has an optional 8-inch height extension.
The multi-purpose snow blade has numerous features that include a hydraulic angle, steel cutting edge, and a curled back that keeps the snow rolling. With a full-trip moldboard for safety and a trip-lockout pin for other applications, this is one of the safest and most versatile skid steer blades.
Snow Pushers
Blue Diamond offers two different types of snow pusher: heavy duty and standard duty. For less extreme use and for those that are looking for a budget-conscious pusher that is still high quality, the standard duty is perfect. If you need a pusher that can stand up to heavy commercial use, we recommend the heavy duty snow pusher. All our snow pusher models have bolt-on replaceable wear shoes, 10-guage moldboards, and rubber cutting edge.
The Heavy Duty model includes benefits like corner markers, 3/8-inch side plates, and overall heavy construction. The Standard Duty option features 1/4-inch side plates and comes in 96-inch and 120-inch options.
High Capacity Buckets
For light material like chicken litter, feed, or snow, Blue Diamond® offers a high capacity snow and mulch bucket. The mesh strip attached to the 32-inch-high back increases visibility and safety.
Our design ties the bucket's floor into the back for additional power with a 38-inch-deep floor with reinforced ribs. This bucket also features a powder coat finish, optional bolt-on edge, and comes in sizes from 84-inch to 102-inch widths.
