how does it lift up and down the plow ?

You physically lift it to transport position. Other wise it floats on the surface via gravity when plowing snow.

You manually lift it in and out of transport position. When in use, the plow slides up and down on the push frame as the contour of the ground changes.

Pushing it like a lawnmower. It's not very hard but if you have a separation joint across the driveway, you have to push down on the handle to raising the front before you continue. I'm happy with mine. Better than blowing the debris. The SpinSweep Pro is much faster.

This only lifts the plow. This is the plow lift . I have a Honda Rancher and I wanted a plow lift that easily attaches and disconnects. I have a 48" blade and this unit works well for my application. It easily lifts plow and is quick. You will basically have 3 options in atv plow lifts, This style lift , a winch system, or the lift system that acually mounts to the plow mount under the quad.

I have not tried the plow type. However let me tell you this. I am a leg amputee and this shovel works great for me. I can clear snow from a large driveway and it is not a problem.

To be honest, I have not. In my case, I like to gather up a "scoop-full" and be able to slide it off to the side of my driveway as I can. In my particular case, I would not want a plow type, for the reason of putting the snow where I want. Hope this helps some.

It is based on the down force and height of your ATV your mounting it to as well as the spring setting you select when installing the plow. Pushes snow great, driveway rock is also easy to grade. If your talking about a hard packed road are driveway you may have issues. If it's loose rock in the middle of a drive are roadway if may do ok. This plow was way more than I was expecting for the money. Easy install and great quality for your dollar. I did install the feet/guide so the bottom edge does not ride directly on the ground. If this was taken off its possible it could dig in a Little better. I believe this would allow it to grade much better. I've never needed to try that. Hope this helps answer your question.

With out the sleeve hitch there would be no way to raise the grader or set the depth without getting off the tractor. But while I use mine I let it ride right on the ground to fill in holes. Then after they are filled I use the hitch to set the depth and level. I imagine if your handy you could use it without a hitch but it might not work as well and be a pain. I spent the money added the hitch and everything because I plan on using other pieces of equipment like the disk and bottom plow.

You can move it with you feet if your legs are strong. If it were a hard surface it would be easier, but for the most part I'm in plowed (loose and soft) dirt and with your weight it will bog down.

you would have to make some modifications but yes it has the strength and the power handle plow

No,the red strap is used to lift the plow and does not allow down pressure as designed.a redesign may allow that but internal strength may be a factor,good luck .bryan

It has a tow bar meant for a garden tractor. The axle width makes it unstable over rough terrain. I use a trailer pulled by my utility tractor when moving it across the rough pastures.

good question, but no idea. I do know that this winch blows away the crappy super winch that came on my snow bear plow. I modified this to use on my plow 3 years ago, and this unit has worked without fail, and it's smoother and quieter than the super winch; not to mention, a fraction of the price.

You have to take the handle off the Mojack and use Rachaet and socket and it will lift it.

It only takes 3-4 seconds max for plow to travel from ground to fully raised height. Cold weather has no impact on motor speed since the generator of the running ATV will be providing the electricity for running the motor. It is quicker than the winch motor and has stop limits so you will not have to worry about "over-raising" the plow frame into the bottom of your atv. several comments are posted online that they damaged either their plow mount or atv undercarriage due to raising the plow too high and bending/damaging either the plow mount or atv!

This requires a bigger, heavy duty lawn tractor - check with manufacturer of your tractor for it's weight capacity. It could lift your tractor right off of the ground if it's too light. Our smaller lawn tractor can't handle it, the larger one has no problem.

You put firm pressure down on the tool and push and pull back and forth. Works really good on soft soil or pre tilled soil. Wouldn't recommend to attempt to cultivate hard ground. It takes a lot of work

I have used mine in all snow levels and conditions and it work great. I adjusted the height so it can clear snow all the way down to the concrete. When clearing 1"-2" of snow I basically use it like a plow.
