    After growing up and living in Ohio for 45 years, I decided that I had had enough of winter, so I moved to Arkansas. We might get a snowstorm like that maybe once every 5 years. But if we wait a day or two, it turns 60 degrees and melts. But there is something quite satisfying about watching snow plowing. Enjoyed that video

    Thanks for the high-speed video. It helps really get a better perspective of how. you pick your lanes and have to plot it out.

    Wow. This is very interesting. I contacted Snopower a year ago about putting a live cutting edge on the pull plows to improve the scrape based on your reviews and your praise for the sectional pushers. From what they said it sounded like the Metalpless patented design limited their own options for developing a spring style live edge. Interesting to see what they came up with. Hope it works well and is reliable.

    Looks like you guys get a very decent amount of snow, we use a special tactic not to hog away too much parking spaces with snow piles, we blow the snow into wooded areas or large patches of grass areas, the customers pay a premium that is less expensive than to have it removed away by loader-truck, plus when the snow is blown off, the compaction ratio makes it such that you shrank the amount of snow on the premises, sometimes by a factor of 10 to 1, the downside is that as plowed snow melts slower than ordinary snow, but blown snow melts even slower because of density, but just using a snow blower mounted on a skid steer, is very profitable...

    Plows and blowers alike, some have shear pins, some don't. I've had 6 snow blowers, all had auger shear pins, some had impeller pins, some didn't. I noticed, the ones that had shear pins that broke super often were also the ones shredding belt and having other mechanical failures. I'm not saying nobody should use shear pins, but they also shouldn't be a substitute for good design. You don't need to lea heavily on them to keep from damaging things.

ITS 3 am Today is a light ice event for a few hours turning to rain by mid day I got up to see if it’s slippery yet,I’m retired but work the winter storms to help.Local town highway dept. We have60 miles of mostly country roads with 4 10 wheel dumps, and a single axle dump that helps all 4 routes on steep hills and bad spots with straight run salt . The other trucks mix 2 or 3 buckets of salt with sand .anyway I love seeing the new stuff you show us ! Merry Christmas to you all !

  • @DanMarcelino
    @DanMarcelino 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I'd really like to have a plow like this.. I think everyone should start with a straight blade. I see way too many guys running v-plows etc and getting too caught up in scoop mode, thinking that's making them faster, but in turn, forming less of a pattern and a ton more clean up. Whereas with a straight blade, you rely on windrows and cleaning up in a solid pattern.. a lot less clean up, but you don't move as much snow per pass.. now imagine if this plow could wing the entire plow, even just a bit.. and then with these wings.. Lord have mercy.. lol that would make my lots WAY faster to clear and then the final pushes at the end in scoop mode would be one pass only. 👌🏼 if they make a version of this plow with a wing feature in its entirety, I'd be buying one next season. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    30 years ago, I would see snow plows in front of trucks on a regular basis in my area. Nowadays, they have just about gone extinct. To be perfectly blunt, a truck just does not have the power of heavy construction equipment, or farm tractors. They are about all I ever see nowadays, for road and parking clearing. They move more snow faster, leave a cleaner surface and can pile it up way higher.
    Another quick note... We typically mark the curves with sticks before winter so that we don't have to do any guesswork about where they are.

    I saw that plow on another channel and wondered how well it would move a lot of snow with that short moldboard and question answered ,lol. We're switching to Westerns as we replace a couple plows and absolutely love my Wideout XL. I got my Wideout XL for 8800 installed so I don't know if it would be worth another 3+K. Its a cool plow though!

    that 6' mold board is pretty ingenius. we have these 8' to 8'6" mold boards on our wideouts and EXTs and it's too much when the snow gets to deep and packed in after a blizzard. a 6' mold board though? hmmmm thats a lot less snow you're trying to push when the snow gets deep and just might make that difference.

      I use an ext and a 16’ drag pro. The ext is great because when you are too close to something, you can retract a wing quickly versus a v plow that will swing and hit it.
