For the Polaris General, snow blowers are available in a spectrum of outputs and sizes.
From 15 horsepower models at the entry level, perfect for light snowfalls, to more powerful engines surpassing 20 horsepower for more professional snow clearing.
The larger horsepower models are great for extensive areas, while the 15 horsepower variants are more suitable for smaller, more frequent tasks, offering efficiency and reduced vehicle wear.
Sizes vary from a handy 48-inch to a substantial 72-inch, providing a wide choice to suit diverse snow-clearing needs.
All in all, smaller, lighter, and less powerful variants will prove gentler on your drivetrain but will not be able to clear snow as effectively, especially in larger open areas.
