STRAIGHT LINE SNOWPLOWING

This method is most efficient for drives, streets, roads and walkways. Moldboard type blade snowplows mounted on utility vehicles or service trucks are best for such an operation.

Set the snowplow moldboard at an angle so that the snow is rolled to the shoulder or curb.

Single lane walks, roads and aisles can often be cleared with one pass.

When the road is more than twice the moldboard's width, plow a center lane for the first full pass. Then, in follow-up passes, work the snow to the sides. The diagram illustrates plowing sequence for a typical 20-foot road.

Corner clearing is almost automatic when clearing intersecting streets. When snow is heavy, a little "stop over" snow may have to be removed from intersections by additional short passes.

We recommend a speed of 5 to 15 MPH for this kind of plowing. Of course, road surface, weather conditions and equipment will influence your speed.

Plow with the storm.

WIDE DRIVEWAY

1.Make one pass down center with blade in straight position.

2.Push snow to side with moldboard angled.

3.Do the same on either side.
