The main issue with snow and ice equipment is that it's only used during the season which gives it plenty of time and opportunity to develop issues during the off-season. Customers who install equipment on their vehicles and then begin plowing or salting without checking and maintaining the main components are at risk of recurring problems.

We asked our parts specialists to share their thoughts on the best ways to prepare your snow plow for use this winter, the best way to store and prepare your Fisher Salt and Sand Spreaders and the most efficient method to store your snow plow during this winter.

What are some common issues you see when users are taking their snow plows away for the season?

The biggest issue we see when snow plows are brought back in to service is corrosion of the electrical connections between the snowplow and the truck. It is important to ensure that the electrical modules as well as the connector pins and casings are free of any debris and keep the power connections safe and transmitting properly when in operation.

What are some typical mistakes that people commit when they are putting away their salt spreader for the year?

Salt-based materials can be corrosive. It's important to clean your sander thoroughly every time you use it. If they begin to show signs of corrosion in particular, we pay attention to moving parts and steel. Bearings and the conveyor chain should be checked carefully and cleaned and greased attentively each time you take your Fisher Salt and Sand Spreaders away to store it for the winter.

What could happen If a snowplow has not been properly disposed of?

The primary concern you face when putting your snow plow in the wrong place is the possibility of corrosion on any electrical and steel surface. Electrical connections won't be as secure once corrosion has set it and therefore keeping the your plugs dry and clean after use and during storage is essential to ensure consistent, stable operation whenever you require it. The cover on the power unit will help keep water out of your hydraulic oil.

What could be the consequences of a sander being put away without being properly prepped?

Similar to snow plows and snow plows. Connection issues are a top culprit in salt spreaders and sanders not functioning properly during the snowy season. We also see corrosion and rust in conveyor chains as well as bearings because of saltiness of the spread. When we are preparing the sander for its final year, we check and clean all moving surfaces.

Is there an option to get rid of my salt spreader and snow plow at the conclusion?

The Minute 2 Mount system is used by Fisher snowplows. It's very simple to remove the snowplow and then remove it from the frame of the harness.

There may be a need for cranes or forklifts based on the location you intend to store your Fisher Salt and Sand Spreaders throughout the year. Many of our customers have their salt spreader mounted in a dump body with the aid of a hydraulic hoist. they could use the dumping deck to gradually slide the sander to the ground.

We can set up your snow or ice equipment right away.
