I have found that snow and ice builds up on the attachment for the plow. Have to make sure it is cleaned off before installing the plow otherwise then hooks don't completely grab the frame.
Your videos on your helmet are the perfect angle i love it keep it up man
Plow lock is simple. Just loosen nut on handle and wind till there's no play and rease a little. Then tighten nut. They do ware a little. Manual states to adjust every 3 months of use. Don't know if I'd go that far.
Great vid.
My wife and I bought 2 550's in 2013. My seat was super hard and hers is just right. We also bought a 2018 450 for my son and his seat is really cushy.
I have the 570 I was mad to it didn't have a cup holder LoL
On the oem plow, there is a adjustment nut to tighten / loosen the tabs that secure it to the frame, sound like you need to tighten them it and it shouldn’t pop off after that!!
Agreed, I found that out later. Thank you!
After 3 years of Canadian winter plowing my winch gave up. Looked everywhere in the aftermarket for a rebuild kit... no luck. But i did find parts locally and have a video on my channel that shows ya how to fix it and where to buy parts. 18 bucks to fix my 600 dollar polaris winch is sure better then buying a new one
It may be help to share that info with the rest, then it becomes searchable
The bars on every model are metal 🤣
Thanks for sending me this video man. Greatly appreciate it. How do they do on gas? Also. I give you props bc, you actually do an awesome thorough job in all of your videos. Thanks for that. Not many do.
About 100-125 miles on a tank about. Thank you!
Would you recommend the four wheeler Boss V-plow or is it better to get a straight blade? And did you add a extra battery to the 850 and what else did you do to get the Boss v plow to work
I have a 570 they are good atv for plowing snow I have the boss v plow on my 570 and it works good
Very Informative. Thanks
You can get the power angle for the Polaris plow.
Yes, It’s just a little slow but a good option for someone who would want it.
Adjust the screws on the release/lock grip with the glacier quick system. I had the same issue of plow coming off when I hit something. Even when it was in the locked position the screws weren't tight enough and latch would release.
Awesome thank you! I will have to try that!
Love the videos- I’m really on the fence about a Boss V plow, I just do my driveway but it’s 50x100. Have a moose plow but hate how many times I have to get off the machine. If you were just doing your driveway with maybe the possibility of some accounts would you still go Boss?
I would. I love having hydraulics and not dealing with a winch.
Auto Pilot MT awesome! Thank you! I’m just getting the prices back from different places right now. Get one I like I’ll be pulling the trigger.
Auto Pilot MT I guess my only other thing was i know you have the handle bar mounted one, I was thinking of the smart controller like the pick up trucks have.
Auto Pilot MT well thanks for all the advise, I ordered my Boss V for the Honda! Can’t wait to use it
@@DieselMechanic30 I would upgrade your machine I ordered the boss v plow for my Ranger 400HO was no where near enough power upgraded to the 6x6 800 Ranger.
nice video, found your channel and mint, cant wait to see more plowing do you do commercial and residential ? have a good one cheers
I am considering the boss straight plow for my atv. Would you recommend steel or poly blade and why?
You should get a shroud for the top of your plow. Makes a bigger difference than you think
Who the hell needs 1.41 minutes of running around the quads and waiting for them to warm up.
Nice job on the video.
Do you find the V-plow to be too heavy for the 850?
Not at all, is it heavy yes. But the extra weight with the 850 and 1000 machines really help get through the deep/wet snow. Better built machines as well. Better frames and overall strength.
Well done.!!!
How do you attach the plow to the frame so it doesn’t fall off. Mine also falls off and I’m disabled so it’s a real pain .
I think it’s a fail safe feature, but someone said you can tighten the Screws on the locking points and that helps but I think unless it’s solid to the frame with a big enough hit it will fall off. But I would try tightening the screws or springs underneath and making things as tight as possible.
Auto Pilot ok thanks I’ll try that
👍👍👍
Our plows are identical to the black plow how many plows do you run
Good video
What size plow on the 570 I ordered a 52 in. now I’m worried when I angle it will it be wide enough to cover my tire tracks
Do you recall what brand springs you upgrade the front to be? Or where you got them.? Or a part # ?
I just purchased a 2019 sportsman 850 sp and I am not finding anything for it at this time.
Highlifter coils. Not sure part number or anything. Just had my local Polaris dealer gallatin recreation in Bozeman Montana deal with it all.
Sounds good thank you. I will give mine a call. Do you regret getting the boss at all..?
Did that void any warranties?
I still find it hilarious that 4wd engine braking is considered a feature and not available on NON SP 450/570's... I'm gonna be trading in my sportsman 570 utility, just not enough of a build quality to me...
The Polaris plow isn't very good quality. Fast attaching yes but not very good. Look up a Denali Plow, $360 for a 60" steel blade with 1/4" bracing, you can literally move hot asphalt if you wanted and won't bend it. There mid mount systems so you gotta get down and remove sheer pins to detach but strength is key to me.
The steel side bars on the 570 front rack is standard on all models, and I agree the shifter and battery mount sucks. Another thing you should add is getting to the 570's coolant pressure cap and relay box sucks to do...the digital dash is soon becoming standard so your analog gauge will be phased out. Personally mine has the digital and it's great for info but watching the needle move is easier then trying to decipher numbers off a screen. Mine also has the full drive by wire system from the 1000, but doesn't have the mode switch which sucks, throttle is lumpy and run quality is poor. Yours actually runs great by comparison. Your SP also has the dual A arm front suspension which is great to offset the plow weight, wish mine did....Polaris did some strange stuff from 2014 to now, like the way overly powerful engine brake, down hill 4wd engine brake "feature" and drive by wire on some models. Just strange.... makes good power though and new to off-road people love em for simplicity and there soft suspension
Wow! Would completely agree, would love to get my hands on more plows to test out and machines, thanks for the great feedback learned a lot I’ll pass it on, favorite comment feedback yet! Thanks!
Just burp the throttle over n over to keep the clutch engaged. The downhill desent switch works but is unnecessary for experienced riders.
So 570 is a reliable bike? Any issues like overheating?
Nope. Only heat problem is the right footwell that vents to the side of your leg but they make a plastic piece that fits over it now. Great for the price it’s at. That’s why they sell so many.
Thanks
Can one put a salter on that?
Yep 👍
Considering buying a new 570SP or a 850SP. Seems like suspension is the same on both but will be adding the Boss V Blade to either. Is there a huge benefit to the 850 or would the 570 do just fine. Don’t want to over spend just for engine
Go ride both of them. Start with the 570 then ride the 850. Look at the frame, how it starts, the feel of the parts and build quality. I highly recommend the 850 with the boss v plow. You can put the v plow on the 570 and plow with it just fine if you take care of it yourself. I would put a strait plow on the 570 but not the v plow. To much weight for the frame in my opinion. But if your just doing your driveway I’m sure the 570 would be fine. Don’t like the battery location of the 570 and it’s not a very strong battery. Yes the 850 is more money but your also paying for better build parts and in my opinion a much better platform for the v plows weight and can handle the extra load on the battery. Not sure what your plan is with it.
I just bought at boss v plow how do I take it off my atv?
Keep it in the v positions, be in float mode on your controller. Pull the levers out and into the hold position on each side of the plow. Grab the hydraulic box and lift up and they should disengage if they are tricky to pull out. Then disconnect the power and ground and controls and you should be good. You may have to lift the plow off the mounting bracket on the ATV if it’s caught.
How do you like that box on your 570? I was thinking of getting one and I noticed white marks on the rack when you took it off it didn't scratch the rack did it?
I didn’t use it at first because it does scratch, its kind of rough on the bottom but i needed it to carry my side pieces for the plow and such so I used it anyways works great except for the scratching but it’s a work/fun vehicle for me so oh well. Dirt will get under it as well and scratch but its going to happen anyways. Could be bigger inside but worked for me.
570. No balls
Will the Boss fit a 2022 Polaris Sportsman 570 Ride Command Edition?
You can put any plow on any machine if you know a good shop. I know boss has a bracket for the 570 but I’m not sure about the 550. The bracket for the v plow and straight plow are the same.
@@AutoPilotMT My mistake. I meant the 570. I corrected it.
@@AutoPilotMT I haven't finalized the sale on the 2022 Sportsman 570 Ride Command yet. They also have a 2022 Sportsman 1000 Ride Command. I thought the 1000 was overkill as I will only be using it for snowplowing.
I would love to try the 1000. I like the extra weight of that machine. But the price tag on it 😬 compared to an 850
Hi i have a 850 and am looking in to the xt is it worth it
Do you ever have an issue with your boss plow draining your battery faster than your stator can charge it?
Not really, only if I’m stationary for an extended period of time just using the hydraulics.
So at the moment I’m looking to get a 2017 850SP. They want 5500+ tax and it has a little bit over 2000 miles is it worth it? Or should I look for something with less miles? Thanks !
Oh boy, I don’t know that’s going to have to be your call. Every machine and every owner takes care of their machine differently. Couldn’t really give you an answer sorry.
I think you mistitled your video completely.
Garbage 🗑. Unless for "speed test" all I care about is the boss plow.
Is that a 52” plow on the 570? I have a 60” plow on mine sold to me from the dealership and have had nothing but trouble the atv just can’t push the snow so I think it’s the size of the plow is to big for the machine
I had a problem with the plow falling off when I hit something hard. I really like having a plow that has a hard mounted bracket. The glacier plow is great for personal home use and such but I’ll probably never buy a glacier plow again after having all hydraulic. I’d rather spend a little more for a boss straight plow.
have a 450 with a 60 inch polaris plow and have used it twice, and had no issues. I did hit something super hard and the plow fell off, but I hit it super hard, kinda nice actually figured that it might keep me from breaking shit.
I just got a 570 SP and looking to get a Boss XT for it. I’ve also got the opportunity to pick up a commercial account for a small church for the season. I am in the Green Bay WI market. Can this setup handle a commercial job like this?
Should do just fine! That should be a lot of fun with that setup! If you ever make a video send me the link would love to see it in action!
Auto Pilot what would you recommend doing to the front suspension on a 570 SP for the additional weight of the plow?
I never put the boss on the 570 so I have no idea, I would just try it and go from there. if its to much for it add a spacer, if that’s not enough I would move on to the next step, and so forth.
If u don’t mind me asking. How much for your 850 with Boss plow setup out the door? Please and thanks.
850SP was end of model year sale which was $800-1000 off of whatever a new one goes for with a 6 month warranty and not a 1 year. Boss v plow was 3k with install thrown in at that price. Same price without install.
YOU ARE COMPARING A SPORTS CAR TO A LIMO..THE 570 IS AN ENTRY LEVEL BIKE.. VERY AWESOME THE 850 IS THE TOP OF THE LINE FROM POLARIS!!
Actually the top of the line is the 1000, he's showing the difference, & similarities of HIS two quads! Quit bitching
4 wheelers are just useless in the snow/ice to plow. I use chains on mine and still have a fun time doing my small farm with. I am getting a truck with plow. Atvs have limits for plowing. Anyone ever use studded tires? I fucking hate my chains constantly falling off
Can a 450 hold a boss plow?
Probably. It’s identical to the 570 and people use the v plow on them.
How much did that set up with the vplow cost??
3k with install thrown in. Same price without install.
And the atv??
$800-$1000 off a brand new one, I bought it during the end of the model year sale.
the thing i hate the most about my 570 aside from the ridiculous battery placement , the fact that all three headlights cant be on at the same time without a modification (and they arent even LED).... Is the stupid placement of the key!!! SO ANNOYING especially when plowing turn too sharp and the key hits the gas cap and shuts the quad off ..... terrible engineering IMHO
That is easily changed...check youtube. I believe you just take the top handlebar cover off and connect the yellow and green wires togther.
What tires are those
Stock tires, I think pst or something, very cheap but they do the job for me.
Is the 570 five speed
all i heard was um, um. biased review, you clearly like the 850 better. 570 is affordable.
😍
how much is your boss plow
3k
Auto Pilot
Thx
Ýh
polaris is junk watch my Honda 300 eat the snow click my account watch my video Honda most reliable quad easily
I would agree Honda has the most reliable track record out there, they make a really capable quad. Great engines.
ahhh thanks did you watch my video on it? not as good quality as yours and I only got video of a few during daytime usually out through out the night. I just do residential driveways was always using lawn tractors with snowblower attachments first year with the quad not as clean of a job but way faster and more fun working lol
Polaris is cheap its for ppl who want a new quad but can't afford one watch my Honda stock suspension go through anything click on my videos
Pairofdice and they don’t break cause they don’t have power
Do you use the shoes on your glacier plow? Trying to set mine up and feel it misses a bunch of snow if I use the shoes.
Never used them, there more for dirt driveways that are uneven. I put them at a level that if my cutting edge got to low the shoes would keep it from going past the blade to the metal.
