Snow-clearing equipment
![]() |
|
Snow-clearing equipment is designed for collecting and compating snow to remove it from the road. Snow is thrown to the left or to the right in the direction of motion. Snow-clearing equipment can be mounted on the base vehicle in two ways: a standard way, or in a way that implies interchangeability with the front high-speed blade. Snow-clearing equipment falls into two categories: snowblowers and rotary snowplows.
Vehicle frame mounting system as well as the use of quick couplings in the hydraulic system helps remove a snow-clearing implement for the summer to use the vehicle for other purposes.
Snow-clearing implements are driven hydraulically or mechanically. When using a hydraulic drive, the power unit consists of an air- or liquid-cooled engine and a volumetric hydraulic drive placed on their own frame behind the driver's cab. When using a mechanical drive, the power unit consists of an air- or liquid-cooled engine and a Cardan transmission system with reduction gears.
