Abstract:
1. A method for deploying and using a snow plow mounted to the front of a vehicle, comprising the steps of: selectively lowering a main plow so as to bring the main plow into a plowing position with a scraping edge of the main plow in contact with a surface to be plowed; selectively lowering a secondary plow, located between the vehicle and the main plow, so as to bring the secondary plow into a plowing position with the secondary plow in contact with the surface to be plowed, said secondary plow being selectively lowered independent of the selective lowering of the main plow, whereby both said main plow and said secondary plow are selectively lowered into respective plowing positions in contact with the surface to be plowed; and, plowing the surface to be plowed with both the main plow and the secondary plow simultaneously.
