What Do Snowplow Accessories Do?

Snowplow and ice control accessories can serve several different purposes. Some are designed to enhance equipment performance, while others can improve visibility, protect components, simplify operation, or make equipment better suited to a particular application.

When deciding which accessories to add, consider the challenges your equipment and operators encounter most often.

1. Identify your equipment.
Determine whether you're operating a truck plow, spreader, Snowrator, compact vehicle, or heavy equipment.
2. Identify your application.
Consider the types of properties, roads, sidewalks, parking lots, or other areas your crew regularly services.

Accessories vs. Replacement Parts: What's the Difference?

Accessories are generally added to equipment to enhance functionality, protection, convenience, or performance.

Replacement parts are components used to maintain, repair, or restore existing equipment.

If you're looking for replacement components rather than equipment accessories, explore the BOSS Parts Guide to find the parts and maintenance resources you need.

 

How Should You Prioritize Accessories?

If you're building out a new setup or adding accessories to existing equipment, you don't necessarily need to purchase everything at once. Start with the accessories that address your most important operational needs.

1. Start with compatibility.
Identify the accessories designed for your specific equipment and model.

2. Address your biggest operational challenge.
Prioritize visibility, durability, productivity, material handling, or operator comfort based on what matters most to your operation.

3. Consider your applications.
Think about the types of properties, roads, sidewalks, parking lots, or other areas your crew regularly services.

4. Add accessories as your operation evolves.
Your accessory needs may change as you add equipment, take on new types of work, or encounter different winter conditions.
