While Loftness Manufacturing touts the performance and reliability of its line of snow blowers, landscape contractors may also be attracted to another feature of Loftness products: They’re designed to accommodate a broad variety of skid steers and tractors.
Skid-steer snow blowers are offered at a number of flow rates, starting as low as 15 gallons per minute. Seven models are available in 72- to 84-inch widths. They come with a universal coupler, a single motor design and an electric spout rotator.
A total of 11 rear-mount, power-take-off (PTO) driven tractor models are also offered with one-, two- or three-auger configurations. Available in 60- to 108-inch widths, they accommodate tractors with 540- or 1,000-RPM PTO drives and 16- to 200-PTO horsepower. The units feature two-stage designs for highly efficient operation.
All components feature heavy-duty construction, including the auger, impeller, spout, gearbox and chain drive. Other standard features include adjustable skid shoes, reinforced body braces and shear bolt protection.
Loftness manufactures the SnowLogix line of snow blower attachments, the VMLogix line of vegetation management equipment, the GrainLogix line of grain-bagging equipment and the CropLogix line of crop shredders.
