SuperPlow EZ Rear Hitch Mounted Snow Plow Frequently Asked Questions
Why should Homeowners use a rear-mounted plow?
The benefits of owning a Super Plow are many:
- Works great for plowing driveways of all types
- Mounts on any 4WD, AWD, SUV or light truck
- Simple to mount and remove
- One-time investment, and transfers to next vehicle just to name a few…
Why should Contactors use a rear-mounted plow?
- Saves time
- Compliments any front mounted plow
- Plows snow in forward and reverse (only snow plow that can make that claim!)
- Virtually eliminates back-dragging
- Low maintenance
- Heavy duty construction for years of service
- Works well in confined spaces
What types of vehicles can a SuperPlow mount onto?
- Superplow will work on virtually all SUV’s, trucks, or AWD vehicles, and even some 2wd vehicles with good traction and a Class III hitch.
In pulling the snow, doesn’t it jam up under the wheels?
- Because of SuperPlow’s patented intuitive pivoting feature it is nearly impossible to jam up, even in the highest snowfalls.
How well does the blade clean a driveway?
- Superplow has over 1250lbs. of downward scraping pressure in forward, and even more in reverse based on our engineered design.
How do you plow to the left or right?
- SuperPlow’s pivoting feature works on a very simple principle. The edge of the plow that gets the most resistance (snow) is the side that the plow pivots to. With a little practice it becomes very easy to manage snow into banks, and put the snow where you want it. If you need to “lock” the plow on one side we supply a simple mechanical linkage to do so. After all who knows your driveway (obstacles) better then you do?
Is this plow only for light snow?
- No, because of our commercial grade materials and patented design Superplow can take on all storms utilizing common sense. We have had customers use our plow in storms of 24+ inches. SuperPlow also works well in heavy wet snow where snow throwers would be useless.
If I wake up and find snow, can I really mount this plow in a minute or two?
- Absolutely, your trailer hitch is always ready, and our mounting/storage cart makes installation into your trailer hitch a breeze. Attach plow, safety chain, and plug in the power and you are ready to go
Can I use my Super Plow on any type of driveway or road?
- Yes, SuperPlow works on all types of surfaces. With our toggle switch you can adjust the blade in any height needed. This is especially important on gravel surfaces. You can even use your plow to do some “light” grading if necessary.
What is the best size plow for my vehicle?
- Many times size is a matter of personal preference. Most vehicles will handle an 8ft. plow. It really depends on the amount of plowing to be done and the width of the drive. We recommend any vehicle wider then 74” use an 8ft plow for visibility in side mirrors. If you are unsure you can use a tape measure and mark the distance from the center of your hitch to either side of the vehicle in either 3ft. 6 inches (7ft plow) or 4 ft. (8ft.) place an object and then check the view from your side mirrors.
Are there any hitch height restrictions?
- Yes, your hitch height to the center of the hitch must be between 16-19 inches. If it is lower or higher, SuperPlow has Hitch Adapters for raising or lowering your hitch height.
Are the controls complicated?
- No, your SuperPlow has two options.
1. A simple up/down toggle switch that can be mounted anywhere in your vehicle (standard)
2. Or a simple up/down remote “key fob” option so there are no switches in your vehicle (optional)
Is installation complicated?
- No, as a matter of fact most of our customers choose to do the wiring installation themselves. We provide a wiring kit with all the parts you should need. But if you prefer a local dealer, mechanic or installer should be able to do it in just a few hours.
- Super Plow uses a top quality hydraulic motor to raise and lower our plow. These pumps are used in many commercial applications, and are very reliable.
How is the plow raised?
- SuperPlow uses a top quality hydraulic motor to raise and lower our plow. These pumps are used in many commercial applications, and are very reliable.
Does my SuperPlow come with a warranty?
- Of course, SuperPlow, LLC stands behind our products and designs, and welcomes any feedback so that we can continually improve and upgrade our products. Our warranties are equal to or better than the industry standards.
If I buy a new vehicle can I keep my Super Plow?
- Absolutely, this may be the last snowplow you need to buy. To transfer to your next vehicle all you would need is a new installation kit.
Is the SuperPlow as expensive as a front plow?
- No, Super Plow is priced between a high-end snow thrower, and a commercial grade front mounted plow.

Attachment Hitch
The SuperPlow offers the quickest and most convenient attachment system on the market by attaching to any 2" receiver hitch. The plow can easily rolled up to the vehicle using the storage dolly and the attachment hitch can easily be lifted and guided into the reciever by hand. Most competitor's plows don't offer the mobility of the SuperPlow as you must back your vehicle up to a heavy, unmoveable plow. Also most competitors plows don't offer a pivoting hitch attachment. This causes users to constantly fight the plow as it is never in the right postion to allow the plow to easily slide into the receiver hitch.

Secure Attachment
Once you have the SuperPlow slid into the vehicle's receiver hitch, all you need to do is slide the locking pin through the receiver hitch. A safety chain is also included to ensure the SuperPlow remains attached to the vehicle in the event that the locking pin is lost.

Electrical Plug
Once the SuperPlow is securely fastened to the vehicles receiver hitch, simply plug the power cable into the vehicle's power adapter. The plow is now ready to be lifted off the storage dolly and used to plow snow.
