Innovation Description and Benefit:
The blade saver is a measuring device that lets you easily check your carbide blades so you’re getting max life and not damaging plows. This innovation saves money by allowing you to use the full life of the carbide in the blade, which eliminates the number of blade changes and prevents plows from being damaged. This tool is very easy to use to check blades and you don’t have to get on your hands and knees in the snow to check them and can check your blade from a safe distance without having to crawl around on the ground under and around the plow.
