FAQ’s and Tips: Nordic UTV Plow

FAQ’s

Where is the cutting edge?

The Nordic Plow works extremely well without a cutting edge. The Plows angle, combined with its

weight and that of the machine and operator, provide significant force tight to the ground. This force

allows for a clean sweep of snow, slush, mulch, dirt, etc. The plow may not pick up hard, packed down

snow or ice; however, this is an excellent feature for gravel driveways.

Do I have to separately purchase mounting brackets like other plows?

No - we have designed a unique mounting system that will adapt to most machines. In some

cases you may have to remove existing protective shields on your unit during installation – we

recommend that you replaced those shields when feasible after installation

What if my UTV is equipped with a front hitch receptacle?

We offer a separate, easy to attach 2” hitch bracket for easy installation. This eliminates the need to use

our traditional belly bracket that goes under most UTV’s. Be sure to purchase the UTV w/Hitch

Receptacle model if your machine is so equipped.

How long will the plow last?

The lightweight design and rounded edge technology significantly reduces friction and wear of the blade.

The bottom edge will show signs of pits and scratches but will not degrade the blade. In addition, each

blade is reversible for added longevity.

Can I use it on uneven surfaces or grass?

Yes – our rounded edge blade can be used on paver bricks, sidewalks, grass, gravel and most uneven

surfaces without causing damage to the blade or surface being plowed.

Will the plow leave marks on the pavement?

No – the rounded edge design and composite material of the Nordic Plow will not leave marks on your

driveway, unlike traditional steel plows that can leave rust and scratches on the pavement.

How does the plow raise and lower off the ground?

The plow is lightweight and can easily be raised and lowered with a hand strap is provided. However, we

recommend using a winch if your machine is so equipped.

Is the Nordic Plow made in the USA?

You bet it is! The Nordic Plow is manufactured in Kentucky and Illinois.
