Skid Steer Snow Plow

Four-way and six-way snow plows refer to how many directions the plow is hydraulically adjustable. A four-way blade can be tilted naturally from top to bottom with the loader arms but also use hydraulic cylinders to angle the blade horizontally.

A six-way snow plow can do all of the above, as well as tilt in a clockwise and counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front of the skid steer. Note that you will often need an external electrical harness to operate a six-way snow plow.

If you are only using your snow plow to <a href="https://skidsteersdirect.com/collections/winter-skid-steer-attachments" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">clear snow</a>, the four-way blade is all you need. If you plan to use your snow plow for grading and earthmoving in the summer, you might consider a 6-way snow plow.

It's not all about size; it's also about angled width! When comparing snow plows, the overall width of the blade is normally advertised, but this only tells half the story. When operating a <a href="https://skidsteersdirect.com/collections/skid-steer-dozer-blade" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">dozer blade</a>, you'll often have the blade angled so the snow is pushed to the side of the skid steer rather than out in front.

For example, a 7-foot-wide snow plow might have an angled width of 6 feet. You'll want to ensure the 6-foot angled width will cover the width of your skid steer.
