The Mechanics

- Direct drive from motor, no belts to wear out or replace.
- Spring loaded detent on hydrostat control, won't allow machine to creep, when in neutral.
- Handle height is hydraulically adjustable for up to 2 ½ inches, with more adjustment at lower end of handle.
- Built in filter for the hydraulic fluid.
- The blade is hydraulically raised and lowered for transport.
- The blade is hydraulically turned for left, straight, or right angle scraping.
- Heavier duty transaxle has internal and external bearing support with larger axle ( increased from 1 inch to 1 3/16 inch in diameter )
- Electrical system is protected with a circuit breaker, no fuses to burnout

The Design
|
- Front dolly wheels are permanently attached to the machine, providing stability and balance when the blade is detached.
- Permanent dolly wheels also results in no need of a lock down screw at the base of the handle bar.
- Heavy duty dolly wheels ( 500 lbs. capacity) are one inch larger in diameter for smoother transport along boardwalks, onto ramps, etc.
- Low profile hood affords much better view of ice and scraping. ( 61/2 inches lower)
- Maximum width of machine is 31 ½ inches which allows passage through small doorways without any disassembly.
- Extra capacity ( 225 amp ) deep cell batteries for longer running time.
- Built in charger designed specifically for this application providing longer battery life.
- No calcium in the tires, which could cause rusting of the wheel rims, and severe damage to the ice surface.
- Wider stance of handle bars for easier control.
- Easy access thumb control switch.
- Hidden kill switch, to avoid tampering.
- Linkage on handle bar is aligned to speed control so that it does not require re-adjusting after handle has been placed in upward position during storage.
- The pivot is located 20" closer to the blade, which results in much less side pull when scraping with the blade angled to the left or right.
- Unique wing bolt attachment of blade to hitch, allows removal and replacement of blade in seconds.

The Blades
|
- Blades have universal fit for use on other scrapers.
- Available with 30% heavier gauge blade tubing.
- No blade weights required.
- Blade is shipped in wooden crate for better protection.
- The blade guard is mounted, so that it is located closer to the cutting edge of the blade for safety.
