What equipment is best for snow removal?

Popular manufacturing companies

There are several popular brands that are trusted by many customers.

Husqvarna is a leader in the production of various equipment, characterized by high reliability of parts, high-quality assembly and good functionality of the models. The engines from this brand are powerful and last a long time. But snow blowers from Husqvarna come with a hefty price tag.

Patriot Garden produces budget models that are manufactured in China. But despite this, Chinese manufacturers have adopted a lot from Europe and these units are of good quality. Prices start from 25 thousand rubles.

MTD primarily produces wheel drive snow blowers. They have good power and quality parts. The units of this brand are maneuverable and compact.

Champion also produces models in the inexpensive segment, characterized by low weight, maneuverability and good assembly.

Buy snow removal equipment from a trusted manufacturer

From us you can purchase screw rotors made in China and Russia. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. Before purchasing, we advise you to consult with our specialists; it is possible that the presented models of snow removal equipment are not compatible with your tractor.

Snow drifts are one of the main problems in winter. City crews are clearing Main Street and busy roads. However, the courtyards of apartment buildings and the private sector, proroy, are an impassable wilderness. To clear snow from these areas, management companies or owners of large plots of land buy mini tractors. The device has small dimensions, is easy to operate, and easily and quickly copes with the task.

Manual snow blowers

As an alternative to small trucks, and also for cleaning areas that are inaccessible even to small vehicles, for example:

• pedestrian paths;
• sidewalks;
• narrow passages between houses,

use gasoline self-propelled snow blowers (snow blowers).

There are two types of such units:

• wheeled;
• tracked

Which of these two types is better, you will learn from this article.

Wheeled noticeable:

• cheaper (average cost 110 thousand rubles);
• lighter (the weight of an average unit is 80–100 kilograms).

Tracked snow blowers weigh an average of 110 kilograms and cost from 180 thousand rubles.

There are models for 60–80 thousand rubles, but they are no different:

• productivity;
• reliability.

However, there are also wheeled units weighing over 130 kg and enormous productivity.

How to choose

When choosing a snow blower, you need to pay attention to:

• power;
• number of cleaning stages;
• Possibility of wheel locking.

Engine power is one of the most important factors, because it determines:

• unit performance;
• snow throw range.

Therefore, it is not advisable to take devices with a motor power of less than 7 horsepower (hp).

Less powerful units are intended for home use.

The second important factor is the number of cleaning stages:

• screw (single-stage);
• screw-rotor (two-stage).

Single stage snow blowers:

• cheaper;
• easier.

But there are also disadvantages, they are:

• less productive;
• throw the snow a shorter distance.

Therefore, it is necessary to choose two-stage, that is, screw-rotor devices. They cost a little more and weigh more, but they compensate for these shortcomings with higher performance.

Another important parameter is the ability to lock wheels or tracks.

By blocking the desired wheel, it forces the unit to independently turn in place. The same system is used on a caterpillar tractor.

Using a device with wheel locking, the worker gets less tired, which means he cleans the designated area faster.

How to use

Before the start of the winter season, the unit must:

• serve;
• carry out all routine and repair work.

Read more about the repair and maintenance of these devices here.

The snow blower is then loaded into the back or trunk of the car.

The optimal loading method is using a crane.

If this is not possible, then they open the body of a truck or dump truck and either roll it there on a platform or load it manually.

Manual loading and unloading will require 2–4 people, depending on the weight. To roll on the platform, 2 people are enough.

Having delivered the unit to the place of work, it is started, following the sequence of actions described in the instructions for the device. Then let it warm up for 1-2 minutes.

The snow blower is used in the same way as a mounted auger-rotor device. That is, they clear the strip by throwing snow in the chosen direction.

In this case, it is necessary to observe safety precautions.

After snow removal is completed, the unit is loaded into the machine. You cannot leave it unattended even for a short time, because there is a high probability of theft.

If the snow blower cannot be immediately loaded into the car, then a worker is left with it to monitor the safety of the device.

In most cases, a team from:

• truck/dump truck driver;
• worker.

The driver does not participate in loading operations, with the exception of loading and unloading snow removal equipment.

Its task is to transport snow to a disposal site (for example, to a snow melting point) or reload it into a full-size dump truck.

Therefore the worker:

• clears the area of ​​snow;
• loads the collected snow into the car;
• monitors the snow blower;
• loads the snow blower into the car.

Most popular models

This table provides a list of the most popular models of snow removal equipment purchased for utility companies.

What to look for when choosing snow removal equipment

Before purchasing a unit, you need to make a more precise choice. First you need to calculate the expected amount of work. If you only need to clean paths and small areas (up to 4-6 hectares), then you can purchase a machine equipped with a low-power gasoline engine (up to 1-2 kW). These include PATRIOT PS 301 and Efco ARTIK 55 S.

If the area is quite large (more than 10,000 sq.m.) and has complex access roads, elevation changes and vegetation, you should give preference to more productive equipment, such as Caliber SNUB-11.0/70 E.

The second selection parameter is the frequency of use (once a week, daily or a couple of times a season), based on it, select a tracked or wheeled, self-propelled or non-self-propelled unit with a certain power and fuel tank volume.

Also pay attention to the presence of headlights and the type of start (manual or electric). Depending on the planned budget, choose the desired degree of automation and number of speeds

Also, speaking about snow removal equipment, it is worth mentioning that you can use attachments: blades and special buckets. Initially they were developed for garden tractors and motor cultivators, but today there are models for cars.

Small trucks

The main problem with converting small trucks is the difficulty of making changes to the registration documents.

Therefore, most often modified trucks are used where there are no traffic police inspectors, that is, on:

• internal territories of enterprises;
• dirt roads leading to dachas and small villages;
• cleaning areas adjacent to enterprises with complex configurations.

To prepare such a machine as much as possible for dealing with snow, the following is installed on it:

• height-adjustable blade;
• dump body.

You can read more about making and installing a blade yourself in this article.

Next we will tell you how to make a dump truck from a flatbed truck. A dump truck is more efficient for removing snow.

Due to the small height of the sides, snow can be loaded:

• using a powerful gasoline snow blower;
• throwing snow with a shovel.

Own mini tractor - inexpensive and profitable

You are most likely thinking: “Why should I buy a mini tractor just for a few snow removals?” Maybe you're right. If you have a small house and do not have your own farm, then purchasing snow removal equipment is really unprofitable. But when you have a large vegetable garden or an entire field at your disposal, and your plot is located far from the city, a mini tractor becomes a necessity.

Multifunctionality of the minitractor is provided by special attachments. These are lawn mowers, plows, potato planters, rippers, shovels, scythes, rakes and auger rotors, which are responsible for clearing snow.

How does a screw rotor work?

A rear-mounted auger rotor is presented on our website. From the name it becomes clear that the working part of the device is a rotating auger. It is driven by a power take-off shaft, which transmits part of the engine power to the working equipment through a gearbox. Such an auger rotor is installed at the rear of the mini tractor.

Advantages of using a rear-mounted auger:

• easy installation;
• quick clearing;
• high range of snow throwing (up to 15 meters);
• large working width;
• the ability to load snow directly into the vehicle body.

What is noteworthy is that in the mode of throwing snow to the side, the performance of the auger is higher than when loading snow into a truck, but in general, both modes of operation of the snow blower are quite fast.

Peculiarities

Now let's get acquainted with the table, which shows what features the mechanism has and due to which option.

When it comes to snow removal, “mini monsters” have no equal. Snow blowers and walk-behind tractors with attachments (see how to make them) are far behind in performance. The main thing is that the mini tractor will be useful in many other areas. Is this device worth the money? Absolutely yes.

Watch the video on how to make a mini tractor yourself.

Everyone decides for themselves how to cope with everyday tasks: you can sweep with a mop or use a vacuum cleaner, pull up the grass with your hands or walk through it with a lawn mower, shovel snow or use the help of machinery...

It happens that when remembering winter, some people experience muscle pain in the back, and their arms tense up on their own, preparing for the next attack on the enemy of all land owners - snow...

But there is always a choice - everyone who wants to protect their state of mind and body can clear the snow with a tractor with any of the proposed tools. It is for them that our instructions for clearing snow from an area with a mini-tractor are, so to speak, an educational program for beginners.

Choosing the right snow removal equipment

If you have never had to buy a tractor and can’t decide on the optimal equipment for it, then we advise you to seriously pay attention to our recommendations and valuable advice - they will be a good help for everyone. Take a closer look at attachments that are effective when they work together:. Take a closer look at the attachments that are effective when they work together:

Take a closer look at the attachments that are effective when they work together:

• A blade combined with a brush is a classic. This combination solves many problems in clearing snow on the site. The oval is fixed on the front hitch of the tractor, and a special brush for removing snow is on the rear. While the area is being cleared of snow, the blade is aimed at displacing the mass of snow, and the brush removes all remaining snow, leaving the surface perfectly clean.
• A blade combined with a rotary snow blower is an ideal combination for cleaning large areas. The blade shovels the snow into fairly high windrows, and then the auger snow blower simply throws it to the side.
• A brush in combination with a snow blower (front) does an excellent job of cleaning the area in winter. The snow blower is installed at the front of the tractor, and the broom is installed at the rear. By using the rotor, it is possible to throw the collected snow mass over a considerable distance; if necessary, it can be loaded into a car for subsequent removal, and the brush does an excellent job of completing the cleaning.
• A front loader in combination with a brush copes well with a large volume of work. Ideal for the perfect final clearing of snow from an area. After cleaning the snow, the vehicle can be loaded for further removal.
• A blade in combination with a grader blade - in just one pass the equipment can cope with the widest strip on your site. The blade is fixed on the front hitch, and the blade is fixed on the rear with a slight shift relative to the central axis.

How to make a rotary snow blower for a tractor yourself?

If, at the same time as the task of clearing snow with a tractor, there is also the task of discarding the removed material beyond the boundaries of the area being cleared, you cannot do without a rotary snow blower.

To assemble a rotary snow blower on a tractor with your own hands:

We make a detailed drawing;

Let's recreate the homemade frame. In this case, it will have a rectangular shape, which will be given by metal corners and a profile pipe welded together; We weld a hitch to a homemade frame for aggregation with a tractor; We construct a rotor with our own hands - an impeller with 2-5 blades, which looks like a household fan

It is important that the size and weight of each blade are the same, in order to avoid sideways skewing and strong vibration after mounting it on the tractor: we take a shaft (from used agricultural machinery) designed for large bearings and a rotor; on a metal sheet we draw circles with a diameter of 30 cm, which we cut out with a metal saw or grinder; in the center of each circle we drill a hole equal in size to the diameter of the shaft. This solution will make it possible to make a collapsible rotor, which will be easier to maintain and repair.

In the case of a non-separable structure, the horizontal jumper can simply be welded to the disks; cut a thread on the shaft to secure each circle with nuts;

We proceed to making the blades, which we cut from the remaining metal; We place 2 bearings on the central axis, having previously equipped them with a hub. To do this, you can take a ready-made one from other equipment or make it yourself from an old pipe; We weld 4 eyes onto the hub, through which it will be held on the body of the protective casing; We are completing the safety housing, which resembles a snail. To do this, take a part of the pipe, one side of which is welded (the shaft hub will fit onto it), and 2 guides are welded onto the second; We make a snow removal sleeve - a deflector. A 10-15 cm pipe is cut into the central part of the cochlea with a chute rotating by 90 0 (to set the direction for the waste); To avoid snow scattering, the front part of the casing is covered with metal;

A hole for the axis is drilled inside the cochlea; We install the impeller and clamp it with bolt ties; We adapt a belt or chain drive to the protruding part of the shaft (requires a motorcycle sprocket); We connect the frame with the resulting rotary mechanism and begin clearing the area of ​​snow with a tractor.

The described homemade product is designed for tractors with a power of 2-25 hp, 0.6 traction class with crankshaft speeds not exceeding 1.8 thousand per minute. It can operate confidently in 2-4 gears and provide a throw of 15 m.

Which tractor should you choose?

The choice of a specific tractor model for snow removal depends on the conditions of its use: how high the snow will need to be lifted with a front loader bucket, how compact and maneuverable the machine must be so as not to damage trees and buildings, how much area will need to be cleared and how much money you are willing to pay for a mini tractor. tractor.

1. Front loader lift height.

   If you will be removing cleared snow from the territory, you will need to correlate the capabilities of the tractor and the height of the sides of the dump truck. Most often, KAMAZ or MAZ are used to transport snow. We compared the lifting capabilities of KIOTI tractors and the height of the sides of the most common Russian dump trucks in the table (the data is suitable for loading snow, sand, crushed stone and other bulk materials):

   Tractor loader	CK2810	CK3510, CK4010	DK5010	NX5020	RX6030	PX9530
   Truck side height, m
   MAZ 5551, MAZ 6517, body volume, m3	—	5	8,2	8,2	12	10,5
   KAMAZ 55111, body volume, m3	—	6,5	6,5	6,5	10	12

2. The area of ​​the territory and the width of the paths.

   These parameters limit the choice of mini-tractor: the narrower the paths, the more maneuverable and compact it should be. For large areas, you will need a machine with increased power, which, due to its high productivity, will clean faster.

   • Up to 1 hectare and paths 1.2–1.6 m wide. For a small area with narrow paths, a compact snow tractor CK2810 or CK3510 is suitable.

   From 1 hectare, dense buildings, paths with a width of 1.6 m. To clear snow in yards, you need a tractor with a small turning radius. The mid-size models NX5020 and DK5010 can maneuver between cars in yards and move carefully along narrow passages. By installing a jaw bucket on such a tractor, you can load snow into the back of a dump truck.

3. From 2 hectares, paths from 2 m wide. A vast area with full-fledged roads needs a powerful cleaning machine. The high performance of the PX9530 and RX6030 will help keep the roadway clear even in very snowy winters.

Design and principle of operation

The desire to create universal snow-removal equipment has stimulated the intensification of design thought in several directions. Various manufacturers are engaged in the production of such equipment, and, accordingly, various prototypes were taken as a basis. The main principle remains common - the machine must free some space from snow and move the removed snow itself in the desired direction.

The design of a snow blower is based on several important components:

• a housing that performs a load-bearing and protective function;
• controls;
• engine (electric or internal combustion);
• snow collecting unit;
• a knot that throws snow;
• units that ensure the mobility of the unit (for self-propelled models).

The simplest design of a snow plow is a snow thrower, which simply throws the snow forward as it moves, which is why it is sometimes called an electric shovel.

Structurally, snow blowers implement one of two principles of operation of a snow blower.

• The augers direct the removed snow into the chute (this is the so-called single-stage scheme). In this case, you need to combine two operations at once; for this, the screws rotate at a very high speed. If such a car unexpectedly stumbles upon an object hidden by a snowdrift, breakdown is inevitable. Therefore, it is not recommended to use a single-stage snow blower in an unknown area.
• In the second option, the snow collection system (augers) is separated from the rotor that throws out the snow - this is a two-stage scheme. The augers of such machines have a lower speed, and this saves them from unexpected stops or impacts, which allows the unit to be used for cleaning unfamiliar areas where various objects may be hidden under the snow.

The design includes an internal combustion engine, adapted or developed specifically for snow blowers and walk-behind tractors. As with any gasoline engine, starting occurs from the spark plug, either through an electric starter or a starter cord. The fuel-air mixture is supplied to the engine cylinder through a carburetor that requires adjustment.

On self-propelled models, the wheels are driven through a gearbox and gearbox.

The augers are also driven through a gearbox. Different types of transmission can be used: very rarely - V-belts, more often - gears.

Such a machine can sweep the area from fallen leaves and dust even in the warm season.

For storage, many models include a special case that allows you to isolate the machine from dust and dirt during long-term storage, usually for several months, until the next season.

Description and purpose of a professional cleaning trolley

Regardless of the type of design features, cleaning carts are used for:

1. Dry cleaning of premises. In this case, the equipment is used to collect garbage, dirt and waste, as well as to transport tools with which such operations are performed.
2. Wet cleaning. The carts are complemented by buckets in which you can mix the solution for cleaning various surfaces and materials.
3. After-sales service. With the help of such devices, it is convenient to transport towels, bed linen and other regularly replaced items around the premises.

Professional trolleys are often supplemented with replaceable blocks, thanks to which the cleaner can select the necessary devices depending on the tasks at hand.

Each similar cleaning equipment consists of the following elements:

• frame, which is made of metal parts;
• wheelbase;
• bucket (several buckets);
• additional parts that expand the functionality of the trolley.

Depending on the area of ​​application, cleaning equipment is divided into 3 types:

1. Single bucket. The most common type of inventory. Such carts are mainly used for cleaning small areas. Most often, models of this type consist of a metal frame with swivel wheels on which a bucket is mounted. The row of carts is complemented by a garbage bag.
2. Two-bucket. Models of this type are used for cleaning large rooms. Such products simplify the work, as they allow you to perform the necessary manipulations without constantly changing the water.
3. Multifunctional (universal). Models of this type, in addition to buckets, contain additional containers, nets and other devices designed for transporting various items.

Professional equipment is often supplemented with means for squeezing a mop. Cleaning companies mainly buy universal models, since such equipment allows them to perform assigned tasks without wasting time searching for the necessary tools or tools.

How to use small dump trucks

Small trucks are designed only for work in cramped conditions, so they have several tasks:

• deliver equipment and workers to and from the cleaning site;
• use a blade to clear your way;
• transport the snow to the transfer site onto a dump truck;
• deliver people and equipment to the base location.

Small trucks dump the snow into a pile, which is then loaded onto dump trucks using a loader.

The most effective way to clear snow in cramped conditions is to use a mini loader or mini tractor.

After all, loading snow with a mini-loader is much faster and easier than manually with a shovel. After completing the work, the mini loader moves under its own power to its permanent location.

If the distance is too long (more than 10–20 km), then the mini loader is delivered to the work site and back on a conveyor, which can be:

• a machine with a crane of appropriate lifting capacity;
• transport semi-trailer;
• flatbed truck or dump truck and crane for loading equipment.

After completion of the work, the dump truck based on a small truck goes to the location under its own power, and also takes with it:

• 1–2 workers;
• snow blower;
• shovels and other accessories.

Cleaning technology requires an integrated approach

Complying with all the winter road maintenance standards required by the Federal Road Agency is indeed not at all easy. It is no secret that it is often the quality of the organization and implementation of events to clear roads and yards from snow that residents make a conclusion about the work of local authorities as a whole, then reflecting their opinion on ballot papers.

Technologically, removing snow from roads is divided into two stages. The first involves treating the surface of the roadway with anti-icing agents, as well as subsequent raking of snow and sweeping of the roadway surface with the formation of snow banks in the chute areas. A large number of municipal equipment is involved in the first technological stage of combating fallen snow, despite the fact that full cleaning does not occur at this stage. This technique is called “snow removal” conventionally, since the machines only move and shovel snow from the central part of the road to the side of the road or sometimes to the center of the roadway, thereby reducing the width of the roadway and impairing visibility. Instead of improving the situation on the road, they thereby increase the likelihood of an accident.

In municipal services, tractors, loaders, mini-loaders and other equipment are used to shovel snow, equipping them with snow blades and brushes, but the first stage of snow removal is most effectively performed by combined road vehicles (CRMs). As a rule, these municipal vehicles are based on domestic chassis, and their functionality allows them to cover the entire range of work necessary to maintain cleanliness in populated areas. Today KDM is produced by a whole group of Russian enterprises.

More than a dozen KDM models of the MD series are offered to domestic utilities by the Kurgandormash enterprise, and most of the models in the series have two or three modifications. The vehicles in the “winter-summer” operating mode are based on the GAZ, ZIL, MAZ chassis. KamAZ, "Amur". Models differ in the capacity of the sand-spreading equipment hopper, the presence of a middle brush, and various types of snow plows. Kurgandormash sand spreaders provide stepless adjustment of the width of the working area in the range from 2 to 10 m, as well as the distribution density of anti-icing materials (AGM) from 10 to 500 g/m2.

Combined machines of the KO series on KamAZ and MAZ chassis are offered by the Arzamas Municipal Engineering Plant. The machines are designed for year-round operation. In winter, they are used to clear the road surface of freshly fallen snow using plow and brush equipment, and to combat ice, they are equipped with sand-spreading equipment, which makes it possible to cover “problem” areas of sidewalks and roads with inert materials or anti-icing reagents. The KDM design includes a tank for reagents, a body with a conveyor and spreading disc, various types of hydraulically driven brushes, as well as rotary, side, high-speed and other types of dumps.

Among the youngest enterprises, the production of KDM is seriously carried out from Kurgan. The company offers five models of combined vehicles based on the KamAZ chassis, equipped with a 2.6 m wide front blade with the ability to rotate ±30° for raking freshly fallen snow up to 0.2 m high. And for the final clearing of the roadway from snow, cylindrical middle brushes are installed ∅0.55 m with a working width of 2.5 m. Moreover, the brush can change the angle of rotation relative to the longitudinal axis by 60°. To protect the roadway from slippery conditions, sand spreaders are installed on KDMs offered by Region 45. It's no secret that a road surface covered with a layer of snow and ice increases the turning radius of a vehicle and its braking distance by 3–9 times! The company equips spreaders with bunkers for sand-salt mixture (PS) with a volume of 3 to 12 m3, and the material of the bunker is steel sheet 3 mm thick. Thanks to the original solution of the designers, the load exerted by the MSS supplied from the hopper onto the conveyor is distributed evenly, and this protects the conveyor chain from stretching and premature destruction, and therefore increases the service life of the sand spreader itself.

Basic parameters for choosing a mini tractor

Before you buy equipment, you should choose several models from different manufacturers for comparison.

Buying a mini tractor is expensive, and therefore a responsible and important matter that should be taken seriously. Experts recommend relying on several basic criteria for choosing complex technical equipment

Power

If a mini garden tractor is purchased for snow removal in the yard, and the processing area is unlikely to exceed 5 hectares, then it is worth considering more maneuverable options. They tend to have less power, but still allow for effective cleaning. A mini tractor for a summer cottage with attachments also does not require much power. For most needs on the site, you can generally limit yourself to a motor tractor (motor cultivator, etc.). It is more difficult to install equipment on lightweight models, but if necessary, it can be made to order, taking into account the design features of a single device.

Engine type

The age-old question “diesel or gasoline” is difficult to answer unambiguously, even within the confines of one, individual, highly specialized task. It is rather a matter of habits and preferences. But do not forget that the diesel internal combustion engine is still considered the standard of reliability.

A mini tractor engine running on gasoline is easier and cheaper to repair, it works easier in winter, but its service life is noticeably lower, and fuel consumption can be significantly higher.

type of drive

The most functional type of tractor is all-wheel drive. By coincidence, most often all-wheel drive is equipped with a diesel power unit. For loading and unloading snow and debris, as well as for mowing lawns, a rear-wheel drive mini tractor running on AI-80 (92) will be sufficient.

Weight and size

Even if a snow grader deftly operates its mounted bucket, deftly maneuvering through courtyards and areas of parks and squares, do not forget that sooner or later it will have to be parked for storage or maintenance in a garage or in a small parking space

In this case, it is important to understand and accurately assess the future dimensions of your mini tractor-snow blower. If the expected load excludes working with a lot of weight, then there is no point in buying a machine weighing more than a ton

Advice! It is best to focus on the formula of 1 horsepower per 50 kg of load.

checkpoint

In this segment, standards have not changed for decades. Mechanics continue to be the benchmark for maneuverability. Some types of equipment are equipped with an automatic machine, but its maintenance is much more expensive.

Equipment

Everything is simple here. The more adapters and canopies included in the kit, the better. But only if one of the main requirements is multitasking

It is important to remember that if a device is purchased for one specific task, there is no need to look for the “maximum configuration”. What is necessary and for some reason is missing can always be purchased, ordered separately or as a set

Alternative to a mini tractor

The minitractor is not the best suited for solving specific household and agricultural problems. Therefore, when choosing, it is advisable to consider alternative options.

Country walk-behind tractors

Such devices are simpler than mini tractors. Their functionality is completely sufficient for loosening, planting crops, mowing grass, snow removal and other activities in a small area. The garden walk-behind tractor is easy to maintain and store.

Loaders for cottages

If construction is planned on the site or a wholesale trade business is being developed, you will need a compact and maneuverable loader. Models of Chinese dacha equipment will perfectly cope with all the tasks assigned. These are multi-purpose units that can minimize the amount of manual labor. They are tracked or wheeled. It is easy to select the necessary attachments for them.

Hydraulic tractor

This is a practical and multifunctional machine with a large number of compatible accessories and units. It is suitable for both everyday country work and for use in small-scale construction. It is convenient to transport cargo on a hydraulic tractor, including bulk cargo (provided that the appropriate equipment is installed). It is capable of cultivating and loosening the soil, hilling crops.

What is a snow blower and where is it used?

Snow blowers are considered universal equipment that can be used to clear large areas of snow. The main purpose of such devices is to make work easier for people and save time. The scope of application of snow removal equipment has a wide range.

The main places of application include highways, areas near shops and cafes, private areas, cottage villages, holiday villages, etc. The places that most require cleaning are highways.

Types of snow removal mechanisms

There are many different types of cleaning mechanisms available today. The choice should be based on the economic component (amount of invested funds) and the technical characteristics of the unit. Don’t forget about the size of the area that will need to be cleaned.

There are several types of snow tractors on the market that are in demand:

1. Utility tractor for snow removal. These tractors are most often found on our city roads during snowfall. They are irreplaceable in the work of public utilities during heavy snowfalls.
2. Mini tractor for snow removal. Despite its small size, such a device has high power and copes with large volumes of snow. Companies that have a large territory most often use a mini tractor for snow removal.
3. Mixed type tractors. With the help of such tractors, you can sweep and remove snow debris without replacing attachments, which allows the owner to save money.
4. Snow removal machines. The function of such machines is not only to remove snow from the ground, but also to sweep away fresh snow that has not yet compacted.

Snow blower ShRS (FRS-200M)

Snow tractors help load and remove snow from the area where the cleaning took place. The big advantage of this technique is the ability to combat icing on roads and sidewalks.

Snow blower attachments

During heavy snowfalls, the standard equipment is not always enough to effectively cope with cleaning, especially on the roadway. It is necessary not only to shovel the snow into a pile, but also to get rid of the ice. In this case, mounted attachments are used.

List of attachments:

1. Snow plow brush. This set is popular. The snow blade is located in front of the tractor and serves to collect it, and the brush is located behind. She removes what is left of the snow cover. Both of these parts are removable and replaceable parts. It is better to choose hydraulic blades; they remove snow at a certain angle. In winter, a mechanical brush is used; it rotates only in one direction. Its cost is cheaper than hydraulic, but its efficiency is no less than hydraulic.
2. A bucket is installed instead of a blade. The bucket not only performs the function of cleaning, but also loading the removed snow for removal to storage areas.
3. A mounted snow blower is used for a tractor, which throws snow to the side. It is located either in front or behind the tractor. The most common is a rotary snow blower for a mini tractor. To crush the fallen layer of snow, you can purchase a rotary auger snow blower. If the snow blower is installed at the rear of the tractor, then a blade is mounted at the front. A brush is installed behind the tractor. With such a brush, cleaning will be cleaner.
4. It is preferable to use a grader knife together with the blade. Together they cope well with freshly fallen snow. The thickness of the layer does not matter for such a pair; on the contrary, the thicker the layer, the cleaner the cleaning.

Snow blower SU 2.1 OPM

Quite recently, it became possible to purchase all these attachments for mini tractors. Thus, clearing snow with a tractor or mini tractor becomes more productive.

Most popular brands

MTZ

The most popular tractors today are, of course, MTZ (Minsk Tractor Plant) models. They now offer a range of snow removal tractors, both mini and utility. This plant also produces mounted tractors based on its tractors:

• snow blade with hydraulic rotation CO 2.5 (cost from 130,000 rubles);
• snowplow SU 2.1 OM (price from 411,500 rubles, this is an excellent option for urban areas, can work in three inclined positions, it is possible to control the visor, which allows you to change the angle of snow dumping instantly);
• rotary auger snow blower ShRK 2.0 (price from 450,000 rubles, allows not only to clear roads, but also to rid the territory of the formed shafts after clearing with a bulldozer, can make roads through virgin snow).

Craftsman

Craftsman mini tractors of various models are very popular. They are characterized by high power and working capacity, a working width of up to 107 cm, and a mechanical transmission.

The cost of these tractors from an American manufacturer ranges from 85 thousand to 98 thousand rubles.

KIOTI

Cost 1-2 million rubles.

Choosing a snow removal tractor will not be difficult for you if you know what area you need to clear, how often you will use it and what tools you have at your disposal.

Advantages and disadvantages

Each type of transmission has its own advantages and disadvantages, so the decision on which snow removal mechanisms to purchase naturally remains with the buyer, who will weigh the pros and cons.

1. A manual snow blower with a single-speed transmission is inexpensive and easy to use, but it requires significant physical effort to set it in motion. In addition, such a mechanism is not mobile: it moves only forward, and it is impossible to adjust it with different densities of snow cover.
2. The snow blower's transmission, which is self-propelled, has four to six forward speeds and one or two reverse speeds. Forward speeds allow you to regulate work with snow of different densities, as well as drive the machine to the desired location. Such a machine will cost more, but it will also last longer.
3. Hydraulic transmission is a new word in ensuring the reliability and durability of snow removal equipment. It is installed on a new generation device and has fundamental differences from existing mechanisms of this type today, the main one of which is the absence of the need for additional technical configuration. Equipment with such a transmission lasts a long time and is safe to use.

How to choose the right snow blower?

The choice of snow removal equipment should be based on the characteristics of the area to be cleared.

For small areas (up to 100 m2), electric snow blowers or models of non-self-propelled devices are suitable - their functions are usually quite sufficient for cleaning a small amount of snow, and their relatively compact sizes make it possible to solve the storage issue. It should also be remembered that these units are used only for regular cleaning of a small, freshly fallen layer of snow on paths near the house and parking spaces.

Powerful self-propelled snow blowers with a gasoline engine and a wide grip should be chosen for cleaning large areas, as they will cope with the task faster. In addition, they will help remove heterogeneous and complex snowdrifts, especially if the snow blower has several speeds. Therefore, when choosing a snow blower, be sure to consider the regularity with which you can carry out the cleaning.

If the area has a complex shape and is full of obstacles, you should pay attention to snow removal equipment with a high level of maneuverability, for example with levers under the handles, or ones with an automatic turning function. Then you can spend less time avoiding obstacles

It is important!

The distance the snow is thrown depends more on its characteristics and wind direction than on the capabilities of the snow blower itself. Therefore, you should not expect the device to always strictly comply with the value specified in the accompanying documentation.

Tracked versions have greater cross-country ability compared to wheeled models, and they are also better suited for working on sloping areas and clearing large snowdrifts. Curbs and uneven ground can be a challenge for a snowblower on wheels, especially if the tires have a shallow tread depth. But tracked options also have their drawbacks: to simply move the machine from place to place, you either need to start the engine or make significant physical efforts.

The quality of the device, its unique functions and even the price are often determined by the brand.

Type of motor for a combine harvester in a private house in the yard

“Advanced” models of snow blowers are equipped with engines - gasoline or electric. Each type of motor has its own advantages and disadvantages. Read about gasoline ones here.

Electric motor

Electric motor
The electric snow blower is designed for cleaning small areas. The machine is powered either directly from the network or from a battery. Engine power – from 2.5 l. With. Electrical equipment has a number of advantages compared to gasoline equipment:

• environmental friendliness;
• quiet running;
• relatively low price;
• no need to add oil or gasoline.

The disadvantages include:

• low productivity;
• effective against freshly fallen, loose snow;
• connection to the power grid;
• Cleaning only smooth street surfaces (if a stone gets into the auger, it breaks down).

Another limitation is that this device cannot be used in rainy weather.

Price – from 30 $.

Read about how to make an electric snow blower with your own hands here.

Gasoline engine

The power of models with a gasoline engine reaches 5–13 horsepower. They are used on any surface (if you have skis) and terrain. Snow blowers (both electric and gasoline) have a snow ejection function. In gasoline models, this distance is greater, which makes cleaning easier. Attachments for a walk-behind tractor can be very diverse, which greatly facilitates the work and allows you to almost instantly convert the equipment to the desired task.

Gasoline engine

These snow blowers are usually equipped with four-stroke engines. To make the plant easier to operate in ultra-low temperatures, some manufacturers equip machines with electric start functionality.

Advantages of gasoline engines:

• high performance;
• the ability to process distant areas, without being tied to a stationary power source;
• long ejection range;
• removal of stale, dense snow.

Equipment with a gasoline engine costs more than an electric one, and it is slightly larger in size. These are disadvantages that are also taken into account when purchasing.

Price - from 200 $.

You can also make a gasoline snow blower yourself. Read more here.

Do-it-yourself mini tractor for snow removal

There are a lot of craftsmen among Russians. Our thinking and lifestyle do not allow us to give up. Therefore, we always have a way out of any situation. Can a large amount of fallen snow be a hindrance? Of course not. If you don’t have the money (and maybe even the desire) to purchase a ready-made one, you can always make it yourself.

It’s good if the farm already has a walk-behind tractor. Then it is enough to make only a snow bucket. But those who do not have such “miracle technology” can always make a snowplow from scrap materials. Anything can be used for this, from an old car to a chainsaw. All it takes is a little knowledge, skills and ingenuity. Well, maybe a few more tools.

A mini tractor with a bucket will become an indispensable assistant in the fight against snow drifts.

Everyone loves snow - both adults and children, when the amount does not exceed reasonable limits.

But sometimes it represents a natural disaster.

Snowdrifts not only interfere with walking and driving

, but also pose
a risk of flooding
the surrounding area during a thaw.

Therefore, with the onset of winter, the issue of clearing the area from snow becomes relevant.

A number of questions immediately arise:

• who should remove snow in certain areas;
• where to order snow removal services, and how much it will cost;
• what equipment should I rent and where can I do it?

Let's figure out which methods of snow removal are most optimal for different cases, and how much it will cost

.

There are no “no man’s” territories, because each area is assigned either a specific person or an organization

.

Sometimes the “extreme” ones are difficult to find, but still they exist.

These persons are forced to eliminate inconveniences in the territory entrusted to them, including removing snow from it in a timely manner.

Private households

Everything is clear here - the owner

. He decides how to clean the snow, and whether to clean it at all.

Courtyards of apartment buildings

It's more difficult here. Disputes about who should remove this snow are ongoing everywhere. Residents blame anyone for uncollected snowdrifts: from a drinking janitor to the government of the Russian Federation.

Snow removal is the responsibility of the management company

(cooperative). If it is not produced, it is necessary.

In most cases, the snow is removed, but not transported. As a result, dirty piles in the yard are waiting for the thaw to melt and flood the sidewalks and basements. If you turn to the Housing Code, it becomes clear that removal of snow masses is not included in the minimum list of services of the management company.

It turns out that the residents

. In the end, no one canceled meetings where something could be done.

Roads, squares, sidewalks

The responsibility to clear snow and ice in public areas lies entirely on the shoulders of utility workers

. Immediately after the end of the snowfall, they are required to clear roads and sidewalks, and then take out the collected waste for disposal.

In large cities, snow is transported not to landfills, but to specially equipped ones.

Organizations and establishments

The territories of public organizations are cleaned by their owners.

Owners of shops, salons, cafes, etc. within a five meter radius clean

from the establishment.

So, if it turns out that the snow-covered area that raises questions must be cleaned by utility workers, it’s time to contact them, and if persuasion does not work, write.

If, as it turns out, the responsibility to clear the snow lies with you (personally or in the company of other residents/employees), get ready to arm yourself with a shovel (or money to order cleaning and removal services).

Application of a mini tractor

The huge advantage of this mechanism is its versatility. We sell mini tractors with a wide range of applications, as well as specialized models (for example, a damask mini tractor). However, for machines tailored for a specific operation, additional attachments are produced that expand their functionality (such as, for example, a rototiller for a mini tractor).

For example, a garden raider with a built-in deck for cutting grass is used for snow removal. This becomes possible due to additional attachments for the walk-behind tractor. What operations can a minitractor perform?

• Transportation of goods.
• Preparing the land for sowing.
• Harvest.
• Cleaning the streets from garbage and dirt.
• Snow cleaning.

This is not a complete list of the capabilities of small tractors. Let's take a closer look at the last of the listed functions. Moldboard shovels, rotary snow blowers (see how to make it yourself) - this attachment is installed on almost any mini tractor.

Turning it into a powerful device capable of moving snowdrifts, leveling tracks on the road and removing snow drift of any height.

A private user should, first of all, pay attention to raiders. This garden mini tractor is the most economical in price and cuts grass without additional equipment. Everything else can be purchased as needed.

It is better to buy a mini tractor with two PTOs. They have wider functionality.

The rating of the best chainsaws according to our editors will help you make your choice.

• Bulat 120 unit made in Russia (see other models). 12 hp diesel engine, manual gearbox. Travel speed is 23 km/h. Equipped with a PTO. Price 160,000 rub.

Types of attachments

The functionality of mini tractors depends on the attachments used. It is not enough to simply move the layer to the side. There is a need to load it, throw it further to the side, and clear it of ice. This is especially true for cleaning roads when it is necessary to clear the roadway. These works are carried out due to the presence of various hanging elements:

• located in front of the tractor. It is used to collect snow.
• A brush that removes what remains after the dump. It is attached to the rear of the tractor.
• A bucket that can replace the blade. In addition to snow removal, it allows you to load it for removal.

• A mounted snow blower that lifts snow and throws it to the side.
• Grader knife.

As a rule, several types of equipment are installed at once. The best option includes a ladle, knife and brush.

Operating a tractor for cleaning the area

Each mini tractor model comes with a special booklet that describes the management and maintenance of the purchased equipment. Here we will present general provisions that will help you use the tractor correctly and maintain its performance:

• When transporting cargo in a trailer, never exceed the maximum weight specified in the passport. This will lead to rapid wear of the engine and chassis.
• The fuel must be of proper quality. It must be left to stand for two days in a clean container. Filter before filling the tank. You should also clean the fuel filter regularly.
• If the minitractor's cooling system is liquid, constantly replenish the radiator with clean, soft water.
• The first launch is a very important moment. Be sure to check the presence of oil in all containers intended for this purpose. Measure the tire pressure and adjust it to the optimum level. After starting, listen to the engine. If there is no extraneous noise, get to work.
• Run in the PTO for 5 minutes without connecting attachments.
• Change the oil according to the recommendations in the device instructions.

For economical fuel consumption, promptly replace the air filter and clean the fuel valves.

Be sure to perform timely maintenance. This will avoid major breakdowns and increase the overall service life of the equipment.

What is a mini tractor

Already from the name it is clear that this type of equipment is smaller in size. This is where its features arise. Large tractors are used to work on large areas and perform large volumes of work. A mini tractor is usually less durable. It is used to work in small areas. Despite this, the performance of the latter is enviable. Thanks to various attachments, a tractor can perform many functions. But in any case, the main task is to make a person’s work easier and reduce the time spent on work.

As you can see, the main advantages of mini tractors are their maneuverability and performance. In addition, they have good maneuverability. They are able to pass through areas of terrain where large equipment cannot do so. Plus, due to its small size and weight, a mini tractor for snow removal does not leave strong marks on the site.

Cleaning options

There are different cleaning methods. You can:

• clear the snow yourself or hire a person;
• use a shovel, buy a snow blower, rent a tractor;
• order snow removal services.

The method depends primarily on the area that needs to be cleaned. If we're talking about an area the size of a football field, you can't handle it with just a shovel.

The type of snow is also important. If it's compacted

, and even with a crust of ice -
not every snow blower will take it
, it will be required, in this situation we are not talking about shovels at all.

Manually

Manual clearing of an area means the removal of snow cover using:

• shovels
  (regular or),
• scraper,
• snow blower.

If the area is rather large and cleaning is required frequently, it makes sense to purchase a snow blower

.

The range of these devices is very wide, it is quite possible to suit your needs and financial capabilities. You can do it too.

Before purchasing, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with:

For one-time work, of course, it makes no sense

.

Exit – rent

snow removal equipment. You can rent it for a day, for a week, for a month or for the whole winter (which is still not very economically profitable, because the amounts are such that it is easier to buy).

You can rent a snow blower on ad sites

. For example, it looks like this:

Fuel costs will be added to the rental price

.

Don't have the time, energy or ability to clean yourself? offers from people on your city's classifieds website

who undertake such work.

There are those who offer manual snow removal (price not specified). An example of such an ad:

And some offer visiting the site with their equipment. Typical ad:

An employee is hired on condition

:

• hourly pay;
• a pre-agreed amount for the entire territory.

Of course, the amount of payment for services varies

depending on conditions:

1. The larger the area, the cheaper
   each hour (square meter) will cost.
2. The neglected state of snow (packed, rolled by cars) leads to an increase in the cost of services
   . Some people don’t take this option because... this is time-consuming, or the snow removal equipment is not designed for this.

Snow removal equipment: mini tractor, loader

The use of such technology is justified if the territory

, to be cleaned, is quite
large
, for example:

• courtyard of an apartment building;
• stadium;
• parking;
• territories of shopping centers, etc.

You can hire a dozen workers

with shovels, but this method, contrary to expectations, will not be cheaper, faster, or more effective.

If you want to hire a tractor, loader, auger, snow loader or rent other equipment for snow removal, specialized online platforms

, for example, exkavator.ru.

Bobcat mini loader

Popular front loader, self-propelled.

Very compact

, will go where the path is closed for large-sized equipment. Lightweight, yet stable. Load capacity – 900 kg.

You can rent it for 6-8 thousand rubles per day or from 800 rubles per hour

.

When renting, the “kit” usually includes:

• driver;
• fuels and lubricants;
• necessary .

In the case of snow it is:

• buckets,
• brushes,
• sand and salt spreaders
  .

Due to its compactness, it is suitable not only for cleaning squares and roads, but also:

• sidewalks,
• narrow passages
  .

Tractor BELARUS 82МК

Here is a video of how this tractor clears snow:

Rental cost from 2000 rubles per hour

.

In cases where it is possible to throw snow to the side, you can remove the snow with an auger.

Plus

auger rotor -
speed
, minus - it must throw snow somewhere, often with significant acceleration.

Cost of snow blowers

In the store, the price of a mini tractor with a bucket starts at an average of 170 thousand rubles.

Domestic products with a twelve-horsepower diesel engine cost about 170 thousand rubles.

"Belarus-132N" is a little more expensive. Its price is 175 thousand rubles. Equipped with a thirteen-horsepower Honda gasoline engine, manual transmission, and hydraulic system.

“Husqvarna-TS338” with a gasoline engine with eleven horsepower, an automatic transmission, costs about half a million Russian rubles.

But there are also more powerful, and therefore more expensive, models. For example, Shibaura SX24 costs about 1.3 million rubles. This is a four-wheel drive diesel tractor with 24 horsepower. It features an automatic transmission, a liquid cooling system and two power take-off shafts.

Cost of snow removal services

Ordering a turnkey service is the most convenient option

. There is no need to guess about the choice of equipment and the number of employees - the company specialist himself determines:

• what car
  to send to the site,
• how many people
  ?

Such companies exist in every major city (if it snows at least occasionally); in northern latitudes, the choice of organizations is especially wide due to the demand for the service. A list of such organizations with contacts and prices for snow removal is given below.

Manually

There are situations when the use of special equipment is undesirable or impossible

, For example:

• the equipment will not be able to drive in or turn around;
• road surface requires careful handling;
• I need to dig up the car.

You can order the services of manual snow removal workers, prices start from 200 rubles per hour

per person, but during periods of heavy snowfall this price can rise quickly.

It is unlikely that a company will send people to work for one hour, so there is always a minimum order amount

per person - for example,
from 600 rubles
. Taking this into account, it is necessary to calculate an approximate budget.

Work can be carried out using shovels

, and using various snow removal
equipment,
for example.

Tractor

Renting a tractor for snow removal will cost on average from 2,000 to 10,000 rubles per day

depending on the:

• scope of work;
• difficulties;
• type of equipment;
• region.

The most acceptable option

To order a tractor for snow removal for an ordinary person, far from the nuances of working with special equipment, is to rent a snow removal machine, where the lessor:

• provides driver services
  ;
• pays for fuel costs
  .

With the arrival of winter, snow falls and covers roads and sidewalks. This winter factor greatly affects the speed and safety of movement; it is not always possible to get home comfortably.

It will not be possible to clear large areas of snow quickly and a lot of effort will be spent. In these cases, snow removal machines come to the rescue.
