The Skid Pro Attachments 48" Push Pull Silt Fence Plow for Skid Steer is a new skid steer silt fence installer designed to install erosion and sediment control fencing. Silt fence plows of this type slice a narrow trench in the soil so geotextile fabric can be placed below grade, a common requirement on construction sites, roadway projects, and land development work where stormwater runoff must be contained.

Mechanized silt fence installation can reduce the hand labor of trenching with shovels or walk-behind equipment. Operating the plow from a skid steer lets crews install perimeter controls with equipment already on site, which helps keep site preparation moving before grading and excavation begin.

The model designation identifies this unit as a 48" push-pull silt fence plow built for skid steer use. The push-pull description indicates the attachment is intended to be worked in more than one direction of travel. Silt fence plows in this category generally place fabric in a slit trench rather than an open-cut ditch. Soil is then pressed back against the fabric, typically by tracking or driving along the line, to help anchor it before stakes or posts are set.

This attachment suits site development contractors, excavation and grading companies, erosion control specialists, utility contractors, and landscaping firms. Typical projects include residential subdivisions, commercial construction, road building, pipeline work, and other jobs that require stormwater pollution prevention measures.
