What is The Best Rear Plow for Your Tractor?

The best rear tractor snow plow is the KAGE ShadowBlade. The KAGE ShadowBlade was designed to increase the efficiency of the snow removal contractor. The SHADOW BLADE is a wing plow that can change direction (go out on either side of the vehicle). Combining this new versatility of a wing plow with the front blade, an operator is sure to find an increase in plowing width and effectiveness in passes. Use the SHADOW BLADE to not only increase the swath width of the front plow, but also to counter-act the crab walk effect when you are plowing heavy snow to one side. The SHADOW BLADE may also be used for bench-winging and plowing back banks of snow that lie along the curb and in ditches.

What Are The Features and Benefits of The ShadowBlade Snow Plow System?

There are many features and benefits of using the ShadowBlade. Click here to see what others are saying about the ShadowBlade.

Simple Joystick Control

With the Joystick Control, one is able to fully control the movement of the Shadow Blade. Rather than having additional large joysticks or buttons, Kage has made it easy to use with the main joystick control. This allows the operator the ability to focus on the front plow!

Transport Function

The SHADOW BLADE has a ‘fold’ or ‘transport’ function where the blade can be folded in half for easy transportation when moving from site to site. It also beneficial for easy storage. Another benefit of the ‘transport’ function is that the operator will have a clear line of sight behind them while using the front plow.

Floating Top Link

Shadow Blade Plow Float FeaturesThe Shadow Blade is equipped with a floating top link so that the blade can float up and down, following contours of the pavement. Without instantaneous float up and down, the blade would inevitably leave snow behind. With the plow at the ‘normal plowing height’ ensure that your top link is in the middle of its float range. There is 5” total of travel. Adjust the turnbuckle until you have approximately 2.5” of thread (float gap) showing at the ‘sliding end’. It is normal that the SHADOW BLADE has a slight pitch downward when it is not resting on the ground. This enables the blade to have ‘float’ when it is down in the plowing position. With the added top link and pivoting cylinders, the SHADOW BLADE has a full floating and oscillating function. This is so that the blade can follow all contours of the ground being a parking lot, ditch, etc.
