Paladin Ice Shark 72-Inch Skid Steer Snow Blower
Overview
The Paladin Ice Shark snow blower is described as a premium-grade skid steer snow blower with a backdrag option — a patented feature that lets the operator remove snow as close as 6 inches from walls without shoveling. The 72-inch model requires 15–27 GPM. It also features a 3D floating hitch for uneven surface operation, a dual articulating chute with 270-degree motion, and toolless adjustable steel skid skis. Distributed in Canada through Langner Equipment.

Is This Right For You?
Buy if
- You clean up debris, sand, and small material from hard surfaces like concrete, asphalt, or warehouse floors
- Spring road sand cleanup in Canadian parking lots is a core task for your machine
Skip if
- You need to collect the material, not just move it — an angle broom side-casts debris into a windrow
- Fine dust or regulated material (silica) requires containment — an angle broom disperses it
Also consider
- Pickup broom if you need to collect material rather than side-cast it
- Street sweeper or vacuum attachment if dust control is a regulatory requirement
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.

Care & Maintenance
- Inspect broom fill length after every 20 hours of use — bristles below minimum length drag rather than sweep, waste time, and mask the fact that you need a replacement
- Clean debris wrapped in the drum core after every extended session — wire, hair, and root cause drum imbalance and stress the hydraulic motor bearings
- Grease drum bearing end caps monthly during active use periods
- Check hydraulic motor connections and angle cylinder fittings weekly — broom motors work hard and connection fittings loosen over time
- Store on end or off the ground so bristle fill doesn't take a permanent set under drum weight — brooms stored drum-down develop flat spots in the fill that affect sweep quality
How to Connect
- Attach broom frame using Bob-Tach
- Connect hydraulic couplers for rotation motor
- Verify rotation direction (forward-sweep or reverse-sweep per job)
- Adjust broom angle if applicable — most have manual tilt adjust
