2. You can rake compacted snow using a tractor equipped with a rotary milling attachment. After such cleaning, all that remains is to load it into the car and throw it on the side of the road.
3. Using an auger mounted on a tractor, icy snow is removed, effectively clearing the area of ​​ice.
4. The bucket with which the equipment is equipped allows you to store snow and ice in specially designated areas.

Benefits of use tractors:

• quick removal of snow debris;
• high efficiency;
• minimal labor costs when performing work;
• multifunctionality;
• the ability to replace several employees at once.

Compact municipal equipment does not require significant maintenance costs; it is easier to find a garage for it. The expanded functionality of such machines allows you to install a variety of attachments on them.

What equipment will be needed?

Equipment that will be required to complete the work:

1. A loader that loads snow or dirt into the back of a vehicle.
2. A blade used to remove snow from the road, level areas, and clear them of debris or soil.

   Sometimes dumps are made independently, but equipment made in artisanal conditions can ruin expensive equipment.

3. Sweeping brush. It is necessary for cleaning snow porridge and debris. This equipment effectively collects debris left on the road after the dump passes. The brush is an ideal device for cleaning asphalt concrete surfaces.
4. Snow blower. He lifts the snow and throws it aside. It is installed in front or behind the equipment. There are two possible options: a rotary snow blower (simply shovels snow) and a rotary auger cleaner (crushes fallen snow).
5. Watering barrel. It is used for watering plantings and areas during the hot season.
6. Hydraulic hammer. It is used to crush frozen soil and destroy old asphalt.
7. Grader knife. It is often used in conjunction with a blade. Install the knife from the back.The use of a knife allows you to increase the area of ​​the cleaned area. This equipment does an excellent job of removing fresh snow.
8. Additional equipment that makes it easier for utilities and expands the functionality of the tractor: mowers, blowers, wood chippers.

How to choose a technique?

Before making a purchase, you should estimate the size of the area where the work will be carried out. As a rule, mini-tractors are used to clear snow from the adjacent areas of multi-storey buildings and private sectors. The large-sized equipment is suitable for processing city streets and country roads.

Tips for choosing equipment:

1. When choosing a tractor for harvesting, you need to pay attention to what equipment it is equipped with.

   Since its main purpose is to clear the area of ​​snow, a blade must be installed on the equipment.

   With its help, snow masses are cleared and moved to the side. It is immediately recommended to choose a brush that will improve the quality of the work performed.

2. Even if you have decided to purchase a miniature tractor, it is better to opt for an all-wheel drive vehicle. Despite its compact size, it will be able to overcome snow debris and easily climb any elevation. All-wheel drive would also be useful in the summer.
3. For comfortable work of employees in cold weather, it is recommended to purchase a cabin with heating.
4. The tractor must be equipped with high-quality lighting devices. This allows you to safely perform work in the dark, which is important for winter.
5. When choosing equipment, you need to evaluate its dimensions. The tractor should enter the garage without any problems. This must be taken into account at the purchase stage.
6. Be sure to evaluate the turning radius of the car. The bigger it is, the better. Since the equipment operates primarily in urban environments with dense buildings, when moving it should not touch plantings and other objects located on the sites.

Not least important is the company that produces municipal equipment. The longer it exists on the market and the larger the manufacturer, the more reliable its products. During ongoing repairs, you will not have to spend extra time and money on purchasing components. Large manufacturers always have them in stock.

• the volume of work to be done - the owner of the equipment can provide a discount for processing large areas.
