About this file
This is a specification document for RFP 210000002366 issued by Department 591, detailing requirements for a heavy-duty snow blower attachment compatible with a 2021 Caterpillar 950M wheel loader. The specification references the Wausau SNOGO Model MP Rotary Snow Blower as the baseline equipment and requires bidders to respond with confirmation of compliance for each specification section. The equipment must be new, of the latest model in current production, and include all standard features. The specification encompasses comprehensive technical requirements across multiple categories, including base specifications, general operational data, dimensional specifications, auger systems, impeller design, hydraulic controls, electrical systems, fuel systems, instrumentation, and loading chute components. Key performance specifications include an operating capacity of 1,800 to 2,000 tons per hour, snow casting distance of up to 150 feet, complete unit weight of 9,800 pounds, and cutting width of 114 inches. The equipment requires a Cummins diesel heavy-duty industrial engine rated at 300 HP with Tier IV emission compliance and must operate effectively at temperatures as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit. The vendor is responsible for complete installation of the snow blower onto loader 38-0365.
The specification establishes detailed technical standards for paint thickness, wiring protection, hydraulic line security, auger construction and performance, impeller housing, frame materials, and control systems. Spare parts must be supplied including one complete set each of oil filters, fuel filters, air filters, hydraulic filters, and coolant filters. The document does not contain information regarding pricing terms, set-asides, contract duration, funding sources, award dates, bidder conference details, or response deadlines. No incumbent contractor is identified, and no renewal options or contract term length is specified in this specification document.
