Mr. Plow in Action: 500HP Snowblower Devours 16 Straw Bales. Extreme snow removal!
"Welcome back to another exciting installment in the Mr. Plow series! Today, our indomitable runway snowblower, who has now become a beloved part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula community, takes on a unique and demanding challenge - devouring a whopping 16 straw bales!
After serving on numerous runways with distinction, Mr. Plow relocated to the U.P. to continue its mission of clearing the private roads. In this video, we'll see him in full action as he tackles a beautiful, fresh overnight snowfall.
But we don't stop there. In a surprising twist, Mr. Plow shows off his multifaceted abilities by chomping through 16 straw bales, displaying the raw power of his 500 horsepower CAT diesel engine. Made by Norland Idaho, known for their reliable snowblowers, Mr. Plow is well-equipped to handle anything the Michigan weather can throw at him.
So, sit back and enjoy the spectacle as Mr. Plow proves once again why he's the champion of snow removal. Don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell icon for more of Mr. Plow's snowy adventures!"

Zamboni Sad, Tractor Through the Ice, No Rink for Winter

The winter 2023 ice rink never came to be. The Zamboni couldn't get out on the ice because the Kubota went through. The winter temps did not fall low enough for the foot of ice required to safely carry all that weight. #zamboni #pondhockey
500 HP Snowblower - Meet Mr. Plow
zhlédnutí 3,8KPřed rokem
Mr. Plow started his life as a runway blower for the Harrisburg International Airport. This airport snow blower was originally rated at 3,000 tons-per-hour (TPH). It features a Caterpillar 3208 V-8 diesel drive engine and a Caterpillar inline-6 Model 3406B auxiliary engine. The blower head is 106" wide and is hydraulically driven. Mr. Plow was originally built in 1982 and refurbished for PennDO...
500 HP Snowblower Stuck! Mr. Plow hits a tree - can we get him free?

While plowing the road with our 500 HP runway snowblower, the ice got the best of the truck and it slid into a tree. Getting it free was a challenge and what came to the rescue but a chunk of chain link fence to get it moving again.

Snowblower on the back of Kubota M4900 - Storm Cleanup
zhlédnutí 1,3KPřed rokem
It didn't seem that there was going to be much snow, but when we woke up the lake effect snow had deposited at least 6 inches of snow. Because snow had fallen off the roof of the barn, front end loader work was required where the snowblower can't reach. The Kubota M4900 is equipped with an inverted or rear pull type snowblower. This setup is great because it allows for you to retain your front ...

    i'm dropping a fact check on to those giant snow blowers, that snow gets frozen bits that are hard and heavy with sharp edges. It snow blows the bark right off the trees and they usually die. Private property is great but taxpayer equipment can't be killing and wasting taxpayer owned trees. Therefore i am putting a dukakis onto snow blowers, defunding snow blowers and disavowing snow blowers. By my virtuous superiority i will now use my self appointed authority as a racial fluid, trans fluid, undocumented citizen with over 65 participation awards to impeach snow blowers

  • @andrewalexander9492

    Interesting that the blower is hydraulically powered. Most of the large dedicated snowblowers I've see have the blower driven by a shaft. Presumably because of the power losses with hydraulic power. Yeah hydraulic power is more flexible, but on a dedicated snowblower, you really don't have to move the blower head around that much. Anyway, cool machine. I wish I had a large snowblower like that, and a road to plow with it.

    • @irontrails906
      @irontrails906 Před rokem

      In airport land this machine also had a big broom. They said it was damaged and that truck was only used with the blower. I'm guessing hydraulics make it much easier to switch between implements...

They eventually took him off blowers when he drove by a house and took all the front windows out of it not adjusting his chute, the couple were at home too, blew the wife right out her chair, glass and snow everywhere, the old boy has probably been gone for years now.
