Sometimes, after several heavy snow seasons, plow parts need to be replaced. Although it is occasionally possible to mix and match parts from different plow companies, it is most definitely advised to use one plow manufacturer consistently. Anyone using a Myer snow plow should try to consistently use Meyer Snow Plow Parts for all part replacement and accessories.
Meyer makes some fantastic accessories that make winter plowing much easier. For example, a Meyer Heavy-Duty reflector prevents snow and ice from blowing back from the blade onto the windshield. This is great for municipal plows that often have to plow in the middle of heavy storms in order to stay ahead of the snowfall accumulation and keep roads passable for emergency vehicles.
Other accessories are designed to comply with noise requirements and protect delicate road surfaces. Most plow blades come standard with a steel cutting edge or an edge made of some other metal. Some townships have noise requirements that make using a metal edge inadvisable. Likewise, some surfaces are too sensitive to submit to a steel blade. Many private plow owners prefer to use a rubber or polyurethane cutting edge.
Other Meyer snow plow parts designed to help plow sensitive surfaces are called snow shoes. Snow shoes raise the height of the cutting edge so that the plow does not scrape directly against the surface. Snow shoes are great for gravel, tennis courts and other sensitive surfaces. Likewise, curb shoes can be attached to the sides of the blow blade so that collisions with the curb do not damage the curb or plow blade.
All of the above Meyer snow plow parts are designed to make plowing with a Meyer plow a safe and easy experience. It is always best to try to stay consistent with plow parts, so all plow accessories and replacement parts for a Meyer plow should ideally be made by Meyer. All of these Meyer accessories can be found at a variety of online retailers.
