ABSTRACT:
A convex pivoting pad mountable to a snow thrower or other handle-directed, small engine equipment and on to which the equipment weight may be shifted to facilitate turning. In one embodiment, the pad is frame-mounted to the equipment by way of a pedestal assembly. In other embodiments, one or more pads are pivotally mounted in relation to the chassis or lever arms to selectively control the required tilt force relative to the equipment wheels. In a further embodiment, a lever-actuated linkage coupled to the drive axle raises/lowers the pad as the opposite wheel drives the snow thrower therearound.
