Hi all,

New Gator owner. I purchased 2021 825M S4. I have about a 1/4 mile drive to get to the blacktop that I want to clear off in the winter. I’ve been getting conflicting info about putting a plow on the gator. I have a winch on it. Some folks have told me the s4’s don’t work well with a plow. What’s the truth? If it can, what’s a good option of plow? Thanks for any advice.

How much snow you get and what your driveway is like make a huge difference.

Thank you. I’m in Kansas City, so a lot of dusting a to 6” storms, mostly 2-3 range. Every once and a while we will get a big 6+ storm but that’s every few years. Drive is concrete, hills and curves. I’m probably better off just buying a salt spreader for the back and let that work and use our truck to get out.

1. Welcome to the site!
2. I looked on Deere's website and it didn't list a plow mount under the attachments. You could look for an aftermarket set up.
I have a 60" plow for my Ranger SxS. It works good for small paths, but it leaves a bit to be desired for larger areas & once you get above the 6"-8" range it starts reaching it's limits (mostly traction - this was my experience, others may vary).

Thank you. I had looked at that thread. I think the issue I’m trying to figure out is if my S4 could have a blade. Most of those look like the two seaters.
