Blade Options

Cycle Country UTV Snow Plow Systems are considered to be the best quality and most versatile UTV Snow Plow systems around. Choose from 3 different blade types that each have been uniquely designed to tackle certain problems.

Straight Plow: a straight blade made from high grade steel, finished off with a weather resistant paint that will keep the blade protected from countless hours of use, abuse and exposure to the elements.

State Plow: a tapered plow blade designed to help funnel the snow up and over a curb or higher snow ground. Also made from high grade steel.

Poly XT Plow: manufactured from lightweight poly composite material - is quitter to operate as there is no steel being dinged away by rocks and gravel. Supported by a unique rib pattern design to keep the blades extended. The lightweight nature of this blade makes it easier to install, uninstall and store.

Below is a condensed list of available model-specific plow mounts. We do carry mounts for other makes and older ATVs as well. Please call us at 1.800.920.7574 to check availability for your ATV.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

Congratulations! You’ve just purchased one of the industry’s top plow system component. The High Rise Plow Push Frame works great for all types of plowing. With proper care and maintenance, your plow push frame will last for many years! 

The blade pivot gear design allows the operator to select multiple angled left-or-right positions, and also incorporates a spring-loaded ’trip’ system that allows the blade to handle impacts with small obstructions. The double-pivot system allows the plow blade to be raised higher than conventional mid-body plow frames, thus increasing ground clearance ‘terrain-ability’. Additionally, this plow frame will handle light to medium-duty summer landscape work

NOTICE 

Plow operation requires  

additional components for operation:

High Rise Blade or Cycle Country Blade,

Winch Kit, Mid-Body ATV Plow Mount * 

Please read and understand all assembly instructions, notices and warnings before assembling and operating your plow system.

Follow these guidelines to ensure satisfactory operation:

•  Read this manual and your ATV operators manual before use.
•  Periodically check for wear and tightness of all fasteners. Replace or re-torque fasteners as necessary.
•  Before first use, set plow in the furthest right or left angled position to check for clearance between the plow and front tires.
•  Operate with extreme caution on slopes and rough terrain. Be familiar with the area before you plow.
•  Be aware of immovable objects that could be hidden in the area you are plowing.
•  To avoid damage when pushing snow into a pile, reverse direction before raising the plow blade.
•  Do not ram the plow blade into piles of snow. **Slow down before hitting a pile.**
•  For best results, set the suspension preload of your ATV to the stiffest setting.
•  To reduce steering effort and increase mobility, set the air pressure of your tires to the maximum pressure specification.
•  The plow skids are adjustable. General skid setting is even with the plow wear bar bottom edge, higher settings reduce the chance of rocks and gravel from being collected.  
•  To increase traction during plow operation, operators can try: Securing weight to the ATV for additional tire downforce, reducing tire air pressure, or installing tire chains.
•  The plow blade assembly is designed to ‘trip’ when it strikes an object or digs in too far. When pressure is released, the plow springs back into position. Spring tension can be increased by tightening the locknuts on the bottom of the eyebolts. For less spring tension, loosen the locknuts.
•  Always wear appropriate protective clothing as recommended in ATV’s operator’s manual.
•  Keep away from blade and moving parts during operation

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: 

LOCK HANDLE INSTALLATION:

1. Position the handle assembly, item #30, into the pivot frame assembly. Lock handle assembly into place as shown in picture. (See illustration 1-1) 

2. Attach the tension spring, item #33, into the holes in the handle assembly and pivot frame assembly as shown in picture. Using a rope or a spring puller to pull on the higher side allows for easy installation of spring. (See illustration 1-2)

3. Install M6 hex bolt, item #13, and M6 lock washer, item #17, in the side plate hole as shown in picture. (See illustration 1-3)
4. Secure the plastic cover cap, item #32, into place as shown in picture. (See illustration 1-4)

PUSH FRAME INSTALLATION  

ONTO BLADE ASSEMBLY: 

1. If you purchased the High Rise blade, use the widest position on pivot frame assembly. (See illustration 2-1)
2. If you purchased a Cycle Country blade, use the narrowest position on the pivot frame assembly. (See illustration 2-2)

3. Attach blade spring brackets, items #24 and #25, to top pivot using M8 carriage bolts, item #2, with M8 hex nuts, item #16, and tube reinforcement plates, item #27. Fasten to the side pivot using M8 carriage bolts, item #3, and M8 hex flange nuts, item #18, as shown in picture. (See illustration 2-3) 

4 Attach the assembled push frame to blade. Insert M12 hex bolts, item #8, thru the M12 washers, item #6, and holes and fasten the push frame to the blade using M12 hex nuts, item #15. Bolt should be tight enough to not move, but the blade must rotate freely. (See illustration 2-4) 

PUSH FRAME INSTALLATION  

ONTO BLADE ASSEMBLY
