Snow Attachments Looking for angle help

[zmansmac]

Got a deal on a used snow plow from a Case tractor that I will be fitting up to my Kubota this summer. It only has manual angle but I have a cylinder to make it powered. I started thinking about the angles :confused2: and figure that there has to be a maximum angle that is used as a standard. I'm thinking too much angle and the front would have more of a tendency to get pushed to one side. :anyone:

The other thing to remember is it will hit the front tires so you only have a certain angular range.

30* is pretty much standard for truck plows.

Thanks Duffster,

That's the answer I was looking for. I have to fabricate a new mount anyway and can make it so the blade will extend as far forward as I need and still not hit the front tires when angled.
