A trip system on a plow is a vital component when it comes to safe guarding the plow, truck,
and operator. Typically, there are two different trip systems used: full-moldboard trip and trip-edge. The two will function differently when encountering obstacles. Generally, most plows are equipped with only one system or none at all, but here at BOSS, we think differently. We sat down with our engineer, Tristan Summers, who designed the DXT, for a personal insight into how the dual-trip plow came about. The DXT snowplow is armed with both a trip-edge and a full-moldboard trip to give you optimal protection against any obstacles you might encounter.
Here’s how it works:
