Maintaining Your Tractor Snowplow

Quick Guide to Maintaining Your Tractor Snowplow Attachment

Keeping your tractor snowplow attachment in top shape ensures smoother, safer, and more efficient plowing all winter long.

Here’s a fast maintenance checklist to follow before and after each storm.

• Inspect the Blade: Look for cracks, bends, or worn cutting edges. Tighten bolts on replaceable edges and replace parts that show excessive wear.
• Lubricate Moving Parts: Grease pivot points and lift mechanisms with cold-resistant grease to prevent binding in low temperatures.
• Check Hydraulics: Examine hoses and fittings for leaks or cracking. Make sure hydraulic fluid levels meet your tractor’s requirements.
• Tighten Hardware: Vibration can loosen fasteners. Check mounting brackets, trip springs, and support bolts regularly.
• Clean and Protect: Rinse off salt and slush after use, then apply anti-corrosion spray to exposed metal to prevent rust.
• Store Smart: Keep the plow covered when possible and lower the blade to relieve hydraulic pressure.

A little routine care goes a long way—maintain your attachment now to ensure reliable performance when the next storm hits.
