About this product
📘 Overview
The Top Dog skid steer snow pusher clears parking lots, driveways and runways far faster than a blade because it carries snow ahead of the machine rather than casting it aside. Four sizes span two machine classes and this is the choice that matters: the 60" (RKSP60, 252 lbs) and 72" (RKSP72, 315 lbs) are built for compact tractors, while the 96" (21233017, 737 lbs) and 120" (21233021, 876 lbs) are skid steer scale at more than double the weight. All four use a 1/4" x 4" GR-50 cutting edge with A-50 body and side plates, and come with a universal quick attach mount.
The choice between a snow pusher and a skid steer snow plow attachment comes down to site shape. A plough angles and casts, which suits narrow drives and irregular edges; a pusher carries the whole windrow forward, which is far faster across open ground. Buyers searching snow pusher for tractor should note that two of these four sizes are built specifically for compact tractors at roughly a third of the skid steer models’ weight — a tractor snow pusher and a skid steer one are not interchangeable despite sharing a mount. As a snow removal attachment the pusher earns its place on volume.
⚙ Key Features of the Top Dog Attachments Snow Pusher
- Carries snow instead of casting it — a pusher box holds the full windrow ahead of the machine — one pass down a lot instead of repeated angled passes.
- Two machine classes in one range — the 60" and 72" are compact tractor models at 252–315 lbs; the 96" and 120" are skid steer scale at 737–876 lbs.
- 1/4" x 4" GR-50 cutting edge — Grade 50 edge on every size, with an optional reversible laser-cut version.
- Adjustable, replaceable wear bars — wear bars adjust down as they wear and replace when spent — the edge is a consumable, not a write-off.
- 1/4" A-50 side plate reinforcement — side plates carry the load when you push into a pile at an angle.
- Universal quick attach mount included — ships ready to mount rather than requiring a separate plate.
- Optional pull-back bar — part numbers 9033017-PB and 9033021-PB add a back-drag capability for clearing against buildings.
🔑 Why Choose the Snow Pusher?
- Clears a lot in a fraction of the passes — carrying the windrow rather than casting it means one straight run does what several angled blade passes would.
- Sized to the machine you actually own — a 252 lb compact tractor pusher and an 876 lb skid steer pusher are genuinely different tools — the range covers both.
- Edge wear is a maintenance item — adjustable replaceable wear bars mean a worn edge is adjusted or swapped rather than ending the tool’s life.
- Back-drag with the optional pull bar — the pull-back bar clears the strip against a building that a pusher alone cannot reach.

Optional pull-back bars are available per width for clearing the strip against buildings that a pusher alone cannot reach.
🚜 Which Machines Fit the Snow Pusher?
Available for two machine classes — the Snow Pusher uses a single universal quick attach plate that serves both:
Skid steers and compact track loaders — fits machines with a Universal Quick Attach (SSQA) mount, including:
Compact tractor front-end loaders — fits tractor loaders fitted with a skid-steer-style universal quick attach coupler. Loaders using Euro/Global or John Deere 400/500 mounts require the matching Top Dog adapter plate (Euro 90133219, Euro 2-piece 90133229, JD flat 9033199, JD offset 90133228).
Hydraulics: This is a mechanical attachment — no auxiliary hydraulic circuit is required.
Compatibility is determined by mount type, not brand — confirm your machine’s quick attach configuration before ordering.
❓ Snow Pusher Questions, Answered
What is the difference between a snow pusher and a snow blade?
A blade angles and casts snow to one side, so it works in repeated passes and leaves a windrow. The Top Dog snow pusher is a box that carries snow ahead of the machine, clearing a full width in one straight pass. On large open areas the pusher is substantially faster; on tight or irregular sites a blade is more manoeuvrable.
Which snow pusher size fits my machine?
The 60" (RKSP60, 252 lbs) and 72" (RKSP72, 315 lbs) are designed for compact tractors. The 96" (21233017, 737 lbs) and 120" (21233021, 876 lbs) are skid steer scale — more than double the weight, and beyond what most compact tractor loaders should carry. Match the size to the machine class, not just to the area you are clearing.
Is a pull-back bar available?
Yes. Top Dog lists optional pull-back bars under part numbers 9033017-PB (96") and 9033021-PB (120"), which add back-drag capability for clearing snow away from buildings and against obstacles.
Are the wear bars replaceable?
Yes. The Top Dog snow pusher has adjustable and replaceable wear bars, so the edge can be adjusted down as it wears and replaced when spent rather than requiring a new pusher.
Does the snow pusher require hydraulics?
No. The Top Dog snow pusher is a mechanical attachment — no auxiliary hydraulic circuit is required. It comes equipped with a universal quick attach mount.
What is the cutting edge made from?
All four sizes use a 1/4" x 4" GR-50 cutting edge, with a 3/16" A-50 body and side plates reinforced with 1/4" A-50. An optional reversible laser-cut Grade 50 edge is also available.
Can the compact tractor models be used on a skid steer?
They will mount, but they are not sized for it. The 60" and 72" models are built at 252 and 315 lbs for compact tractor loaders; a skid steer clearing commercial areas is better served by the 96" or 120", which are built substantially heavier for the loads involved.
Will a snow pusher damage asphalt or concrete?
The Top Dog snow pusher runs on adjustable replaceable wear bars that ride on the surface rather than a bare steel edge cutting into it. Set the wear bars correctly for the surface, and check them through the season — a worn bar puts the 1/4" x 4" GR-50 edge into contact with the ground.
How much clearing width do I actually need?
Match the pusher to the machine before the site. A 120" pusher on an underpowered loader will stall in deep snow, while a 60" pusher on a large skid steer wastes passes. The Top Dog range splits at machine class: 60" and 72" for compact tractors, 96" and 120" for skid steers.
