Product overview
Virnig Skid Steer Snow Blower
Description
When the snow needs to go farther than the edge of your plow, put your skid steer to work with the Virnig Snow Blower. Its two-stage design feeds snow through the auger and into the fan, while hydraulic chute rotation and deflector control let you direct the discharge from the cab.
This blower is built for more than a light dusting. Serrated auger flighting works through packed snow, and a heavy steel fan housing helps stand up to rocks and debris. With four model widths, several hydraulic motor packages and a choice of auger styles, you can match the blower to both your loader and the winter conditions you usually face.
Features
- 270-degree hydraulic chute rotation and hydraulic deflector control.
- 3/8-inch serrated auger flighting and a 23.5-inch fan.
- 3/16-inch steel fan housing.
- Eaton hydraulic motors with pressure-relief protection.
- Reversible bolt-on steel cutting edge.
- Adjustable skid shoes, with steel, poly and gravel configurations available.
- Nominal 60-, 72-, 84- and 96-inch models with compatible standard- and high-flow motor packages.
Set Up for Your Snow Conditions
Choose a paddle auger for more aggressive work in hard-packed snow, ice buildup and accumulated piles. The spiral auger uses a continuous helix to move lighter, more consistent snow, making it a good choice for powder and regular snowfall without heavy compaction.
Select the shoes fitted to your new blower under Factory Installed Skid Shoes. The separate Skid Shoe Kit upsell is for an additional spare or replacement pair; you do not need to add it just to choose the shoes installed on the blower. Current BW replacement-kit compatibility should not be assumed for older VBW or VBWB models.
Match the Blower to Your Loader
Choose Width and Hydraulic Flow to match the machine and circuit you plan to use. Check actual cutting width in the specifications to make sure the blower clears your tires or tracks. The 60-inch model is not offered with the 38-45 GPM package.
Do not exceed the selected motor's flow rating. Virnig specifies zero overflow allowance, and excess flow can damage the motor and void warranty coverage. Snow condition and setup also affect throwing distance; the listed distance of up to 40 feet is not a guarantee in every snowfall.
One compatible electrical controller is required. Match it to the loader's actual control system, not just its connector pin count. The Bobcat 7-pin option requires CANbus support and may not work with 2012 or older machines. Accessory-plug and battery-power choices use snow-blower-specific kits; the battery-power kit does not include a battery.
What's Included?
- One Virnig BW Snow Blower in the selected width and hydraulic motor configuration.
- Selected auger style, factory-installed skid shoes and electrical control package.
- Couplers and 3/4-inch Eaton hydraulic hoses; high-flow models also include a case drain.
