ATV Snow Plows | Rocky Mountain ATV/MC

When winter comes around, do you park your quad in the garage, or do you get ready for another great season of plowing snow? If your four wheeler isn’t already equipped with a snow plow, there’s never a better time like the present to get it outfitted.

If you live in an area that sees a lot of snow, there is no reason why you shouldn’t install an ATV snow plow to your machine. Here are just a few of the advantages you’ll get:

  • It makes snow removal fun.

    Great plow set up for the money

    Nice kit. Fast shipping. Boxes came a little mangled but everything was ok. I was able to install this by myself in about 2 hours. Actually heavier duty than I thought it might be. If you bend any part of this you're doing something your not supposed to . Thanks Rocky Mountain! I've ordered a few more goodies and will be back for more.

    Fair price easy assembly

    Fair price. Assembly was easy enough. Just the 2 10mm bolts could be a little longer because the mounting plate would have to be built to to exact specs for the bolts to actually have enough threads to catch. I haven't used it yet but I have confidence the plow will work as needed.

Interested in an ATV plow? Thinking of tilling the soil yourself? Now we will consider the main components and device of the plow, as well as whether it is possible to make a plow for an ATV in the garage with your own hands.

Residents of various quad rides! A variety of trips on these cars, of course, bring a lot of joy and adrenaline, somehow diversify your life. But you need to think about others. Let's take a little break from mental satisfaction and bring a little benefit to ourselves and help our families by using ATVs for agricultural purposes.

After all, a quadric is able to work miracles on any surface and even on soft ground. I suggest you that an ATV can easily handle the plowing of your garden in a small amount of time by putting an ATV plow on it .

Many dachas have areas where tractors, in principle, cannot pass, or it is simply inconvenient for them to turn around there, to make some maneuvers. So the ATV in such cases has a colossal superiority over the tractor, having the ability to maneuver in difficult situations.

Just think how much time and effort you spend in the spring in your gardens to cultivate the soil. Believe me, the ATV will cope with the task of plowing one hundred percent. Quadr in its concept is universal and has proven itself in the agricultural industry for many years on the good side, and is an indispensable assistant for farmers. After all, he is able to replace a whole platoon of various agricultural equipment, with the use of the necessary accessories of course.

Let's take a look at how a plow works

So, an ATV plow is a device that includes, first of all, a wedge that cuts the soil, a plowshare, a blade and a working surface. The design of the plow is a system of parts correctly matched to each other in order to perform all the functions of proper tillage. Let's analyze the purpose of each individual element, for the most complete representation of the entire process.

Wedge

Simple alpha wedge - under its action, the so-called deformation of the soil occurs, depending on the structure of the soil itself and the angle alpha α (located in Figure 1).

Dihedral wedge - gamma Fig. 2 - together with the alpha angle, the wedge separates the captured layer from the bottom, lifting it, while compressing it in the vertical plane and splitting it into many separate parts. Note that the larger the alpha angle, the more the formation crumbles. But look, do not go too far, if the angle is increased to 45 degrees, the earth will not slip and will gather in front of the wedge. So the gamma angle is located vertically and separates the wall of the furrow from the formation itself, while taking the earth aside.

Dihedral wedge - beta Fig.3 - deflects the formation in the desired direction and turns it over.

And so, as a result of connecting all three wedges, such a picture should be obtained (triangular wedge Fig. 4). All this is needed to turn the reservoir from the horizon to an inclined position by changing the angle from 25 to 130 degrees.

Small output : when the wedge moves along the X axis, the rib AB cuts the layer, separating it from the bottom, the rib BM from the wall, the ABM removes, crumbles and turns the layer.

Further, to ensure complete plowing, the wedge is, as it were, built up, and it is transformed into a so-called plowshare.

Share - in turn, is a moldboard, curved surface. The recently listed alpha, beta, and gamma angles are constantly changing in this surface.

Let's take into account that the plow's organs, namely the workers, are the ploughshare, as we have already dismantled, consisting of a wedge and a plate extending it; blade wrapping the layer; a support board that serves as a limiter for the depth of plowing, which rests against the bottom of the furrow freed from the ground. These three listed parts and plus a rack for attaching them together make up the plow body.

In conclusion, about the above, we can draw a definite conclusion : from the first drawing to the last, a certain process of earth movement occurs - this body cuts off the layer, lifts, wraps, crumbles the earth and throws it into the previously freed open furrow. Fig.6

We make a plow with our own hands

There are quite a lot of people - farmers who prefer to design a plow for an ATV in the garage with their own hands. Why not, because this is a serious money saving, in our time the price of a plow can be about thirty-five or even forty thousand. Well, of course, branded factory plows will differ from home-made plows, clearly everything in size can be done by yourself, but this design requires it. But for plowing your gardens, even such a plow is enough for your eyes.

And so let's consider a homemade plow for an ATV made by yourself.

Some plow developers, meaning at home, are trying to copy the design from a tractor plow or even from a horse plow. And you know, not everyone succeeds, not because laziness defeats their bonded mind, but only for a constructive reason, when developing, you need to clearly preserve the geometry of the hull.

Its formation comes from the considerations that when the earth is raised 20-25 centimeters high, the plow experiences quite large loads, and the surface, by the way, also feels significant friction, so we start from the thickness of the working parts of about 3-5 mm.

Making the share

The share must be removable so that it can be removed for sharpening. It is made of 9XC alloy steel, a circular disc is suitable. You can also use steel 45 hardness HRC 50-55.

Consider the option of manufacturing a blade from sheet steel.

If you have bending rolls, we drive through them, cut out the workpiece, at an angle of 20 - 23 degrees, to give a cylindrical surface, then modify it with a hammer.

If rollers are not available, can be made from steel pipe with an approximate diameter of 550 - 600 mm. And the thickness is 4-5 mm .. Before that, we will make a template from cardboard, put it on the pipe and mark it with chalk on the pipe, cut it out with gas welding, grind the errors on a knife. If necessary, finish with a hammer.

Next, we will act according to the saying: "Measure seven times, cut one." First, we will make elements from cardboard, preferably dense, we will draw up a visual layout of the plow, maintaining all angles. If you are satisfied with the layout, let's get to work with the hardware. Let me remind you the angle of alpha and beta from 25 to 130 degrees, gamma from 42 to 50 degrees.

Assembling the plow

As soon as the finished plow elements are finished, we assemble them. It is advisable to work on a metal sheet so that a flat surface is maintained, also for the convenience of determining and deriving the desired angles.
Attach the blade to the share, a tight connection with the share must be achieved.

Share attachment


Any angle discrepancies are corrected with a hammer. Then the spacer bar is tacked to the base plate and the thrust corners of the plowshare. After we inspect again carefully and weld already in a good way. We tear off the entire structure from the sheet on which the assembly took place.

Assembled

Now it is necessary to achieve self-propelling and keeping the furrow by adapting the two-wheel block

How to choose an ATV to plow

Heading: OtherAuthor: admin

Many people know that you can use an ATV to plow. This is a universal motorcycle, which is used in suburban areas, for off-road driving.

To use a four-wheeler for household purposes, you need to know what parameters to pay attention to when choosing. To choose an ATV that plows the ground, you need to know the mandatory parameters of such motorcycles. A large selection of ATVs motogo.com.ua/kvadrocikly is presented in our MotoGO online store. We sell models of well-known manufacturers with a 1 year warranty.

Which ATV is right for tilling the ground

The ATV that plows the ground has a number of design features. Special attachments are attached to the four-wheeler. The plow can be bought or made independently. You can plow a field with an ATV or cultivate a country garden if the ATV has the following features:

  • Engine with a displacement of 400 cm³. If the motor has a smaller volume, the four-wheeler will not be able to carry heavy attachments. The motor will overheat due to unintended load and rattle. There is no way to avoid a major overhaul. Therefore, the motor must have a high power.
  • 4 wheel drive. If the drive is connected only to the rear wheels, it will be difficult to plow the garden with an ATV. The draft will not be enough to pull the plow. Therefore, for economic purposes, models with a 4x4 drive are chosen.
  • Winch. The ATV plows the ground when the plow is lowered to the ground. To lift it, you need a winch. By pulling on the cable, you can raise the attachment and easily drive the four-wheeler from the field. If the winch is not provided by the factory, you can buy and install it yourself. This will greatly facilitate the process of using the plow.

To use this type of attachment, you must work in first gear. If you shift the gearbox to a high gear, the traction power will not be enough to harrow the soil well. The listed characteristics make it possible to transport not only a plow, but also a cart with various loads behind an ATV.

Attachments

If the ATV is plowing, special attachments are used. It is smaller than on a tractor. The hinged design for the ATV has only 1-2 knives. They are fixed on a special frame. The entire structure can be supported on one or two wheels. There are several mandatory components in the design of the plow:

  • working structure;
  • knife;
  • blade;
  • share;
  • stand.

All components are made of durable metal alloy. The knife must be at least 3 mm thick. If you need to work a large area, hard ground, this attachment component must be even stronger and thicker.
