Check out this on-site review done by a snow removal contractor https://dirtmonkeyu.com/plow-review-kage-snowplows-in-action/. This demonstrates the flexibility and versatility that the KAGE® snow plow and pusher system offers the operator. Now a single operator can do the trim work of the truck plow, and the pushing of the wheel loader. One machine and one operator that can do the work of 2 or 3 machines and operators!
Angle Plow – The Versatile Option
Angle plows have been in use for decades. The angle plow is by far the most versatile and easiest way to move snow from a street, driveway, or parking lot. The curved moldboard rolls snow in the direction of travel, and if the moldboard is angled off to one side, the snow will naturally flow laterally as well. This process is commonly known as windrowing. If you want to achieve the fastest clearing possible, and have the ability to move the snow both forward and laterally, you will want to choose the angle plow method. Other versatilities that the angle plow offers are:
Back Dragging
Back dragging is an essential part of any commercial snow plow application. There are usually always times where you have to back drag snow away from loading docks, garage doors, empty parking stalls, or entrances. Snow plows have the ability to back drag cleanly away from all of these. It helps if you have the ability to put some down pressure on the plow during the back dragging.
Safety Trip Edge
The safety trip edge is critical to any snow plow operation. This prevents damage to the equipment, obstacle, and road surface. If there is no trip edge or safety mechanism in place, the plow will strike obstacles and damage will occur.
Snow Pusher – The Snow Hog
The snow pusher is the less versatile option, but the high volume, brute force snow-mover. This attachment is usually used in conjunction with skid steers, wheel loaders, tractor loader backhoes, etc. Very seldom will you see a snow pusher clearing a street or drive lane. Most of the time, a snow pusher is utilized in conjunction with another piece of equipment that has a more versatile attachment. For instance, a snow pusher might be focused on pusher snow to the end of the parking lot, while a skid steer or truck back drag and trim out islands, entrance loops, and parking stalls with an angle plow or bucket. The snow pusher is good at hogging snow in one direction, but if it fills up before the end of your run, you will spill out on both sides of the box, causing dribbles that you will have to go back and clean up.
