SnowEx’s versatile walk-behind rotary broom comes complete with a plow attachment for snow removal and other cleanup applications. Powered by a 160cc Honda GXV Series engine, the SS-4000 is designed to provide maximum productivity for sidewalk applications.

The SS-4000 features a floating pivotal broom head with five angle settings to adjust the trajectory of snow and other materials. The 16-inch-diameter broom is centrally driven, allowing the unit to work against curbs, walls and other obstacles from either the left – or right-hand side. Brush rotation speed is infinitely adjustable, and down pressure can be increased or decreased by raising or lowering the pneumatic support wheel.

For heavier snow conditions, the operator can install a front-mounted blade attachment, which comes standard with the SS-4000. The 40-inch blade uses a unique pin system for easy installation and removal.

Operation is simple, thanks to user-friendly controls and seven-position height adjustment of the handlebars. The unit offers three forward gears and one reverse gear, and a locking differential helps the machine drive in a straight path. A freewheel feature is also included to allow easy 360-degree turning.

The frame of the SS-4000 folds for easy storage, and the wheels are easily removable. Other standard features include winter-tread tires and a corrosion-resistant paint finish. Optional equipment includes a debris collector box for catching material during cleanup applications.

The SS-4000 is backed by an industry-leading two-year warranty.

SnowEx SP-8500/8550

Snow & Ice Control Solutions for Municipal Supervisors

Designed for use with pickups (8-foot beds or larger), flat-bed trucks and dump-bed trucks, the V-Maxx 8500 from SnowEx features a patented multi-angle hopper combined with an inverted “V” salt/sand baffle and attached vibrator that allows for continuous material flow, no matter what is being spread. From 100-percent salt to 100-percent sand, the V-Maxx can spread a combination of material effectively and efficiently. The
V-Maxx 8500 comes with a 2.2 cubic yard capacity polyethylene hopper to eliminate the corrosion concerns and constant maintenance commonly associated with steel V-box alternatives. It is powered by a ½-horsepower, high-torque commercial continuous-duty 12-volt electric drive system, and it produces an impressive 1,800 inch-pounds of torque at the auger transmission output shaft. This fully electric design means there are no engines, pulleys, sprockets, belts or chains, which provides for low-maintenance, worry-free operation. The only difference between the SP-8500 and SP-8550 is the 8550 spreads 295 to 680 pounds of material per minute, double the rate of the V-Maxx 8500.

The independent spinner/auger controller makes the SnowEx V-box-style spreader user-friendly. The cab-mounted controller allows for both independent spinner speed and an infinitely adjustable ratio between the spinner and auger, maximizing material use. Spread width is variable between 5 to 40 feet. A digital system LED display with status monitoring and system protection is standard as well as an auto-reverse function in the event of auger jams.

Furthermore, as with all SnowEx V-box-style spreaders, the V-Maxx 8500 is built with a Quick-Pin hitch for fast and easy spinner assembly removal. Compared with some competitive models that require the spreader assembly to be unbolted or for the entire spreader to be removed from the truck’s bed before being able to tow, the Quick-Pin hitch allows the conversion to take place in a matter of seconds. The feature effectively makes the service vehicle more useful, not having to be dedicated to one function, while also simplifying off-season spreader storage.

Product Highlights:

• Patented polyethylene hopper to eliminate corrosion
• Longitudinal auger for superior material flow
• Independent spinner and auger controls
• Quick-connect drop chute spinner assembly

Salt-Traxx Digital Job Tracker

SnowEx’s new Salt-Traxx is an innovative tracking device that works with select models of V-Maxx spreaders, including the SP-8500. It plugs into the spreader’s existing controller and records useful jobsite data, such as time spent and amount of salt used. This information is saved to a standard removable USB memory stick, and at the end of the day, all information can be uploaded to a personal computer in a format compatible with Microsoft Excel. With the Salt-Traxx, snow and ice professionals can closely evaluate their operations and create better documentation for billing and liability purposes.

SnowEx is a product division of TrynEx International. Other TrynEx brands include TurfEx turf care equipment and SweepEx broom attachments.
