ABSTRACT:
A vehicle for use in ski-area snow grooming operations and also for use in summer maintenance operations which is provided with a four-wheel hydrostatic-drive transmission and four-wheel steering. The vehicle has a frame/body/engine assembly which provides a centrally located low center of gravity and high operator visibility. The vehicle has a relatively broad wheel base which is further broadened by mounting of at least four snap-on wheels. A wrap-around cleat assembly is mountable on each of four multiple-wheel sets for increasing traction in snow. An engine-driven snow processing apparatus operable in both a snow blading state and a snow compacting state is provided.
