Types of the snow-removing equipment

In the winter one of the main problems not only at the authorities and municipal services of the city, but also at owners of owner-occupied dwellings is snow. Therefore especially sharply there is question of acquisition of the snow-removing equipment. It is necessary to consider very many parameters that the device was really useful, but did not become dusty under ladder.

The principle of operation of snowplows - that big that small - it is quite simple. In the device there is engine which puts the mechanisms which are taking away snow weight in the device in action. In the same place, inside, the powerful impeller which throws out snow from the device in the set direction is installed. The small snegouborochnik intended for private enterprises rather weak - their power does not exceed 5 horsepowers. But despite this, such equipment nevertheless copes with the task quite not bad.

Types of machines for snow cleaning

Often the snow-removing equipment is subdivided into two views: - electric; - petrol.

Electric options as it becomes already clear from the name, work from the power supply network. They have very small power. Such models have one quite big minus and it is connected with availability of wire through which the device also is connected to network. First, on frost such cord becomes more fragile, less elastic and is capable to break simply. Secondly, there is always risk to tighten cord under snow and in the device. In either case the device can become deadly to the person.

It is natural that at observance of all safety rules and processing of quite small area such device is quite convenient and rather reliable for high-quality cleaning of snow in the yard of the house.

The petrol equipment enjoys bigger popularity. It is also divided into several types, each of which has the advantages and shortcomings. Petrol snegouborochnik are separated into self-propelled and non-self-propelled. The main plus of both those, and others that they are not tied to network, so, have bigger maneuverability and are capable to clean the large territory successfully. However it should be taken into account that the non-self-propelled harvest equipment is rather low-power. Therefore option which is capable to work independently, in the bigger price.

Devices on caterpillar to the course are also very popular - at them and coupling with surface is better, and they are capable to shovel away bigger quantity of snow and sleet for a short time. And also work at slopes.

Types of snowplows

Except types, the snow-removing equipment is divided also by types. Generally in shops it is possible to meet two versions of such devices - one-stage and two-level. In the first option in the machine the special screw possessing spiral blades rotates. They row up snow to the center of the device, and then throw out it outside. The second option - rotor - by means of the screw snow gets on the rotor and already then is thrown out outside.

At the first type wave snow takes off on distance of 5 meters, at the second - up to 10-15 meters. And it means that clearing in the second case will be more effective.

Additional options

To make work with snegouborochnik of more comfortable, different producers think out the bonuses. So, for example, some do the handle with heating that, naturally, does work with machine of more comfortable. Others equip the device with wearproof brush thanks to what such equipment can be used also in the summer for establishing order on the site. The third offer the devices equipped with halogen headlights thanks to what it is possible to clean the site from snow and in night-time, but not to wait for weekend and to make the way all this time on snowdrifts.

What should be considered during the work with the snow-removing equipment

In case you store snegouborochnik in not heated room, for example, the shed in the yard, it is necessary to process it after use. And it is unimportant whether business of the manual device or self-propelled concerns. Surely clean off the snow which has stuck to screws and brushes. It is connected with the fact that after completion of work the heated-up engine will kindle it, then water will flow down and again will freeze only already on other mechanisms. As a result the device will break, mechanisms will rust, and snegouborochnik it is necessary to change. At once do not begin to work with the device. For a start accurately turn engine shaft special starting rope. Reference point that everything be all right, for you the fact that the shaft will begin to rotate freely has to serve. Means, the device can be started freely.

Range of application

Are in most cases used for clearing of small territories - paths, terraces or the parking for the machine at the dacha - small electric snegouborochnik. He is rather simple in management, belongs to the category of mini-devices and according to already tried it in business quite not bad copes with the duties. In case you need to clear away from friable and fresh snow the parcel completely, it is the best of all to stop the choice on the non-self-propelled petrol unit. It possesses the device which protects blades from meeting with stones. If clearing of the big site is necessary or the person does not feel in himself enough forces that long time to push before himself the non-self-propelled unit, independent models will come to the rescue. They possess powerful engines which perfectly maintain work on frost. Models on caterpillar will be necessary for the course if your site hilly or is located on slope. Maneuverability at such units 10 times more, than at other models. At the same time they have the increased passability and endurance.
