wheeliepower 141 #1 Posted September 11, 2021 Hi, I have a question to the origin snow plow for this wheel horse serie At the moment i'm again building a self-made snow plow Can someone tell me (maybe send a picture too), where the original snow plow has its counter bearing / pivot point? Where the counterforce to the snow plow is diverted into the chassis? thanks for your answer / picture regards manfred Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,035 #2 Posted September 11, 2021 This is the latest manual for the dozer that should illustrate what you need. If not let us know. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeliepower 141 #3 Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) thanks for your response I still found a video on youtube. the fortification is explained there too Edited September 11, 2021 by wheeliepower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 25,501 #4 Posted September 11, 2021 Attached and pivots off rear axle via brackets. Lift point is in middle of tractor. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff-C175 7,199 #5 Posted September 11, 2021 I couldn't watch more than a minute of that video, so don't know if he put bolts through the holes in the attachment brackets, but that is important! You do not want them to unhook while working! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeliepower 141 #6 Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) I'm only concerned with the point at which the power from the snow plow is directed into the chassis ....the bearing of the snow plow frame is located below the rear axle (I just ordered one of these parts) now I build a frame which also has the counter bearing / pivot point in the area of the rear axle use you always a chain to attach or can I control the middle with a lever system too?

SylvanLakeWH 25,501 #10 Posted September 11, 2021 You can use a chain or steel bar to raise and lower it… If you want down pressure you need a bar. I personally use a chain… works good for me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally use a chain… works good for me. A steel bar is very unforgiving if you hit something! For that reason I stick with the chain. If I needed more down pressure I would think about weights on the plow frame behind the blade. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeliepower 141 #12 Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) this is the plow which I want to use. at the moment it is movable (no rigid connection). I still have to solve this problem. then I can use a snow plow frame, like the original part. Edited September 12, 2021 by wheeliepower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeliepower 141 #13 Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) does someone still have the dimensions of the u-profile of the snow plow frame (I oversized the frame on my last build)? Edited September 12, 2021 by wheeliepower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,588 #14 Posted September 12, 2021 @wheeliepower, what tractor did that plow come off of ? the frame and blade set up should look like this , https://www.usedvictoria.com/lawnmowers-garden-tools/36082981 , that is probably your problem , this plow / frame has the rear axel mount on it , look it over , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeliepower 141 #15 Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) adapter plate stiga tractor (more i don't know ) I build the frame self, therefore I need the dimensions of the used u-profile from the origin snow plow frame Edited September 12, 2021 by wheeliepower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeliepower 141 #16 Posted September 15, 2021 Hi, can someone tell me the dimensions of the frame profile (I would have to order the steel to build the frame)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
