What happens here

Begin by preparing the MAG Snow Raider for the attachment of the bucket. This involves ensuring the machine's hydraulic system is capable of operating the bucket and that the front attachment mechanism is clear of any existing tools or debris. Carefully align the prototype bucket attachment with the Snow Raider's quick-attach plate. Once aligned, secure the bucket using the appropriate locking pins and hydraulic connections. Test the bucket's hydraulic functions (lift, dump, curl) to ensure smooth and proper operation. This modification allows the machine to be used for tasks beyond snow removal, such as moving soil, mulch, gravel, or other landscaping materials, significantly extending its utility.

Goal: Equip the MAG Snow Raider with a bucket attachment to enable year-round material handling and landscaping tasks.

Tools and materials

  • Hydraulic Couplers — Connecting the bucket's hydraulic cylinders to the machine's hydraulic system
  • Locking Pins — Securing the bucket to the machine's quick-attach plate
  • MAG Snow Raider Machine MAG — The base machine to which the bucket is attached, providing hydraulic power and mobility
  • Prototype Bucket Attachment MAG — To convert the Snow Raider into a year-round utility machine for material handling and landscaping tasks
  • Wrench Set — Tightening any bolts or fittings during attachment

What they say

Hide

This is a working prototype of a new option coming to MAG for their snow raiders, which is designed to extend the life of their machine from being a snow oriented piece of equipment to being useful 365 days out of the year. But let's just check this out. So, this really can extend this from a snowplowing piece of equipment to a year round piece of equipment using this bucket. Great for small landscaping jobs, but it's really meant to put a piece of equipment that may be sitting a few months out of the year and keep it earning its keep all year round.
