Lionous March Ready to Go
Moyal of the snow fence each year has become one of the more reliable harbingers of spring. Snowplows are going back into storage, too. But not too far back. In case of freakish, unseasonable weather the units will be available on short notice. The operation of retiring the snow plows for the summer simply means uncoupling the blades from the trucks which will go immediately into construction and maintenance service, permitting constant use. The great rotary plows are dismantled by uncoupling a power take-off unit at the front of the crank shaft. But the plows won't be out of reach, should a late blizzard wander along, as it often does.
