Discover the best offers on Multifunction snow throwers

Snow throwers are tools designed to remove snow by moving it from one area to another in private or public areas. These machines allow you to clear driveways, roads, car parks and wide spaces, making it easier to move around and preventing hazards related to ice and snow accumulation.

The big advantage of the multipurpose snow shovels lies in the engine unit's ability to accommodate a vast number of accessories including mowers, furrowers, tillers and many others.

What are multipurpose snow shovels for?

Snow throwers are mainly used to free roads, driveways and squares from accumulated snow, making the routes safe and facilitating pedestrian and vehicular traffic. These tools are essential during winter, especially in areas prone to frequent and heavy snowfall. Their function is to remove snow quickly and avoid the formation of dangerous layers of ice.

What is the difference between snowploughs and snowblowers?

The main difference between snowploughs and snow throwers lies in their structure and the function they perform.

  • Snow throwers are equipped with a swivelling shovel mounted on the front of the machine that is only used to move accumulated snow from one point to another. This shovel does not break or crush snow but simply pushes it sideways or towards a designated area. Snow throwers are therefore useful for lighter clearing operations, in which snow can be easily moved without the need for special treatments. They are particularly suitable for large, open areas such as car parks, roads and yards where it is sufficient to remove accumulated snow towards the edges.
  • Snow ploughs offer a more advanced and powerful solution for snow removal. These machines are designed to tackle not only soft snow but also compacted or icy snow. Their efficiency comes from the combination of rotating blades, often made of steel, a powerful fan that shatters snow, even the hardest snow, and ejects it through a chute projecting it away from the work area. This ability to throw snow at a distance rather than simply moving it makes snow ploughs more effective in heavy snowfall situations or on smaller surfaces where there is no room to accumulate snow laterally.

How are snow shovels made?

The main elements of snow throwers include:

  • Combustion engine: Generally gasoline-powered, multipurpose snow shovels are equipped with engines from well-known brands such as Briggs & Stratton, Honda and Loncin. These engines provide power and reliability, which are essential for operating in adverse weather conditions.
  • Knives or auger: The main element responsible for removing snow. In single-stage models, these blades are often made of hardened rubber, while in more advanced two-stage models, we find steel blades that break even hard snow or ice.
  • Large wheels: Snow throwers have large, durable wheels that allow them to move easily even in snowy and slippery conditions. These wheels ensure good grip and facilitate operator movement.
  • Discharge chute: Mounted above the machine, this component allows the removal of snow away from the work area. The chute can be adjusted to direct the snow in the desired direction.

How do snow thrower work?

The snow shovel is a machine designed to remove snow by pushing it from one area to another using a shovel positioned in the front of the vehicle. The operation of a snow thrower can be divided into three main phases: snow collection, snow moving and snow dumping.

  • Snow harvesting: The snow shovel is mounted on the nose of the machine and has a concave shape that allows you to pick up snow accumulated along the way. This shovel is usually made of strong metal, capable of moving large amounts of snow without deformation or damage.
  • Displacement of snow: Once the snow is picked up, the machine can be moved sideways or forwards. The shovel can be tilted and swivelled, allowing snow to be directed to the desired position. Operators can adjust the loader angle to suit ground conditions and the amount of snow to be removed.
  • Snow discharge: The snow collected and moved by the snow thrower is dumped to the side or at specific points, usually along roadsides or forecourts. Since there is no throwing system like in snow ploughs, snow is simply pushed to a storage area.
  • Machine advancement: Some models of snowploughs, especially the multifunctional ones, are equipped with a traction system that facilitates movement on snowy terrain. This system can be manual or automatic, with forward and reverse travel options available. Large wheels on the top performing models ensure grip even on slippery terrain.

Some snowploughs also include an electric starter, eliminating the need to manually pull the rope to start the engine, a particularly convenient option during cold days.

Advantages of snow throwers

Snow throwers offer several advantages over other methods of snow removal, such as the use of hand shovels or small electric tools. Thanks to their power and ability to cover large areas in a short time, these machines are an optimal solution for those who regularly face difficult winter situations. Among the main advantages of snow throwers are:

  • Greater efficiency in snow removal: compared to hand tools, snow thrower allow larger areas to be cleared in less time, reducing the physical effort of the operator.
  • Year-round use: Multi-purpose snow shovels offer the possibility to mount various accessories, transforming the machine into a multipurpose machine. In addition to shoveling snow, attachments can be fitted for grass cutting, ploughing or other work.
  • Powerful and reliable engines: The combustion engines in these machines, such as those produced by Briggs & Stratton, Honda and Loncin, guarantee high performance even in severe use and cold weather conditions.
  • Ease of use: many models have an automatic advance system that facilitates driving, minimising operator effort. In addition, the presence of electric starts makes starting the engine considerably easier, making the operation more comfortable.

These advantages make the snow throwers an ideal choice for those who have to clear outdoor spaces from large amounts of snow, both for domestic and professional use, guaranteeing a constant operation even in particularly severe winter conditions.

Snow shovel specifications

Snow throwers have several technical characteristics that determine their performance, ease of use and versatility. These elements are crucial in choosing the most suitable model for one's needs, whether for domestic or professional use. The main technical features to be considered include:

  • Internal combustion engine: At the heart of every snow thrower, the combustion engine powers the entire system.
  • Nominal power: Indicates the maximum power that the engine can achieve. Typically, the power rating of snow blower motors varies between 3.5 and 6.5 HP.
  • Electric start: Some snow shovel models are equipped with an electric starting system that allows you to start the machine without the need to pull the rope.
  • Gears: Snow throwers can be equipped with various gear configurations ranging from single gear up to models with more advanced gear configurations such as 1+1, 3+2 or 5+2.

Internal combustion engine

The internal combustion engine is the main element that powers the snow thrower. These engines are designed for power and endurance in extreme cold conditions. The most widely used brands in this category are Briggs & Stratton, Honda and Loncin, leaders in the field of engines for outdoor machinery. Selecting the right engine is critical to the machine's ability to tackle compacted snow and ice. The internal combustion engine allows the snow shovel to operate independently without the need to be connected to the mains, thus offering greater freedom of movement, especially in isolated areas or where the availability of electrical outlets is limited.

Nominal Power:

The rated power of snow throwers generally varies between 3.5 and 6.5 Hp. This value represents the theoretical maximum power of the engine, but it is important to consider that the actual power available during operation is lower. Actual power is measured at the crankshaft and provides a more accurate indication of machine performance. More power helps you tackle thicker, tighter snow, and improves the machine's ability to handle larger surfaces without losing efficiency.

Electric start

Theelectric start is a feature that makes the use of the snowplough much more practical, especially in difficult winter conditions. In many models, this system replaces the manual rope starter, eliminating the effort of having to pull repeatedly to start the machine. With the push of a button, the engine starts, which is particularly appreciated on cold days when manual starting can be difficult due to cold temperatures. This system is powered by a built-in rechargeable battery.

Gears:

The gears are a key feature for adapting the snow thrower to the ground conditions and the amount of snow to be removed. The simplest models have a single-speed configuration, suitable for use on flat surfaces and in light snow. Other more advanced models offer 1+1 (one gear forward and one gear reverse), 3+2 or 5+2 configurations that allow you to adjust speed and tractive power to suit terrain conditions and snow density. Multiple gears make it easier to work in areas with gradients or where snow is particularly dense and compacted.

Snow shovel buying guide

The purchase of a snow thrower is an important investment, so it is essential to carefully assess the specific needs related to the context of use. Here are some of the key factors to consider before deciding which model to buy:

  • Surface to be cleaned: The size and type of the surface have a significant influence on the choice of snow thrower. If you are dealing with very large areas such as yards, car parks or long private roads, you need a powerful model that can handle large amounts of snow quickly. In these cases, large, rugged models with powerful engines and swivelling blades will be the most effective. For smaller areas, such as driveways or pavements, a compact and manoeuvrable snow plough may suffice, offering good performance without requiring much power or complexity of use.
  • Amount of snow accumulated: The amount of snow that usually accumulates is a decisive factor. If the snowfall is light, a compact model may be sufficient. In the event of heavy snowfall, on the other hand, a robust and powerful snow thrower capable of moving large volumes of snow in a single pass is required. Models with wide loaders and more powerful engines are ideal for these situations.
  • Snowfall Frequency: The frequency of snowfall should be considered. If snow rarely falls, a basic or multifunctional model that can be used for other activities throughout the year could be an economical and versatile choice. On the other hand, in areas with heavy snowfall, you should invest in a dedicated model that is robust and capable of reliable snow performance.
  • Snow Type: Not all the snow is the same. Fresh, soft snow can be easily moved with the base models, while compacted or ice-mixed snow requires a more powerful snow blower and sturdy blades. In these harsh conditions, a snow plomay be more efficient than a snow thrower.
  • Obstacles and unevenness of the ground: If there are obstacles such as raised pavements or uneven ground, it is useful to choose a snowplough with a blade height adjustment system to avoid damage. In difficult terrain, larger, sturdier wheels improve manoeuvrability and make work easier.
  • Maintenance and spare parts: Before purchasing a snow thrower, it is important to consider the availability of spare parts and maintenance. Some models require more maintenance, especially those with powerful engines. It is essential to be able to find spare parts easily to ensure a long service life and minimize downtime.

Customer types

  • Homeowners in areas with light snowfall: For those who live in areas where snow falls occasionally and does not accumulate in large quantities, a single-stage snow thrower is the ideal choice. It is easy to manoeuvre, light and requires little maintenance, perfect for driveways and pavements.
  • Homeowners in areas with heavy snowfall: In regions prone to heavy and frequent snowfall, where snow accumulates in thick layers, a two-stage model is recommended. The increased power and steel blades allow you to tackle compacted snow and larger surfaces such as courtyards and car parks.
  • Maintainers and professionals: Professionals who need to keep large surfaces clean or operate in extreme conditions will benefit from two-stage models with powerful engines and multiple gears. These snow throwers offer high performance and reliability even over long periods of work.
  • Farmers and Multi-purpose users: Those looking for a multipurpose machine for year-round use, not just to shovel snow, should turn to a multipurpose snow blower. With the additional attachments, you can transform the machine for other uses, such as tillage or mowing, so you can also use it in other seasons.
