Curtis Plows are simple by design. Our unit utilizes an A-frame assembly for mounting the
electric/hydraulic unit. This exclusive Curtis feature eliminates the need for hydraulic quick
disconnects and also “Hides-Away” our power unit. Our A-frame assembly takes the weight of
the power unit off of the lift frame assembly and allows for increased airflow to the radiator.
Curtis uses state of the art techniques for fit and consistency such as an automated conveyor
system, robotic welding, high definition plasma and hydraulic press brakes. We feel these
techniques are very important for overall quality and serviceability.
To help our customers understand the loads being imposed on their vehicles as well as the
importance of ballast in some applications, we also incorporate computer modeled weight
distributions. Some vehicles may require “Helper Springs”, “Air Shocks” or similar devices to
compensate for the added weight of the plowing equipment. This information is available upon
request. From all of us at Curtis, thank you for choosing our products.
