Matching Snowblowers to Machines

you're thinking about buying a snowblower. So, Quick Attach has a lot of different varieties of snowb blowers for different kinds of needs and different kinds of machines. So, they also make them for tractors, PTO driven as well. This one is one of those, but you can see the PTO shaft right on it. They also make power brooms for skid loaders, tractors, and other equipment. So, if you're in the market for that, those are available as well. Quick Attach pretty much makes 150 different varieties of attachments. Here's one getting ready to ship out. So, this is what's called a two- stage. The first stage is the primary coil.

So, we uh customize every hydraulic motor to match the flow rate of a given skid steer so you get the right fan speed out of it. Otherwise, you'll either have too much speed, no torque, or it'll be too slow and it won't blow the snow. So, skid steers, more than any other attachment, I think, are really finicky about the speed. They are. So, do you have to know what skid loader a guy has when before you sell them one? Yes. If you're out there and you're going to go buy a used snowblower, any advice for these guys, Shane? Well, you probably want to do some homework. I mean, you can find good deals out there, but if you bought the wrong size, uh, it's not going to work at all. So, you really want to do your
