Question 1:
I was inquiring on the information that you have listed for the snow removal tractor quote. Under the specifications, it’s listed as needing to be no wider than 46” width, is this a hard requirement or is there some variation allowed? Does the 46” width requirement apply to the attachments as well?
Secondly, the requirement for a heated cab, seat, and window defrost option, does the seat need to be heated as well or is the requirement more towards just the fact of having a seat within the cab? I appreciate your time and look forward your response.
Answer 1:
The 46” wheelbase is a hard requirement due to narrow sidewalks on the installation. The attachments can be wider than the wheelbase as long as they can articulate to a width no wider than 48”. This will allow for clearing of 48” sidewalks and not disturbing nearby vegetation.
The machine needs to have an enclosed cab. The cab is required to have a heater with a window defroster. A seat is required but the seat does not need to be heated.
