    This really shows what your snowblower is capable of in exstreme conditions. Well done heck of a machine you got.

    Awesome job as always. Some of them banks were almost to much indeed. But your tractor and blower combo did the job as expected and the best part is the heated cab. I'm pretty sure all your clients appreciate what you do.

    Sometimes you have to bend the shoot over instead of going full open as the wind is taking the snow where you cleared at the start .also put up the drift wings it helps with the windrows and side banks .

      Agreed. Kick the chute opening down will prevent wind from drifting snow on your window and work.

    It be interesting to see if we in the UK get our Snowmagedon storm this coming week? The inept UK Met office quite often fall very short on its weather predictions! But combined with a more inept Media,we're already getting doomsayer predictions of the UK coming to a halt and being buried underneath mountains of snow!
    More likely a couple of inches of very wet snow that melts as soon as it hit the ground.
    But keep the videos coming Mark,always a pleasure to watch and an enjoyable watch.

    Hi! Mark, do you have an HST or Shuttle shift type transmission? I noticed you shifted on the fly going between clients?

    Yup, nothing as fun as taking a 6k snow blower attachment and grinding rocks with it. Been there done that.

    have tried a plow? or does your tractor just spin wheels with a plow? mine did until I got a larger tractor. I hated the snow blower, always blew back in my face

    You're doing a great job in your snow clearing, but.....I'd be lowering the discharge chute tip to offset the amount of the fine snow blowing back at you. No real reason to blow it all sky high all the time, I know you're within a cab. I know that's your process/technique.

    • @markwholbrook
      @markwholbrook  Před 6 měsíci

      I know I need to blow some snow easy away from me so that's why I blow it so high

      I do not have a tractor mount snowblower, but I have been blowing snow with a big walk behind blower for 40 years. Wind direction and proximity to objects always dictates how I direct the blower discharge chute, seldom do I ever feel the need to try to discharge the snow into the next neighborhood...😉

    Mark,
    I just want to comment like @archangel729 did. If you bend (lower) your chute on your blower just a little bit when you are doing most of your snowblowing, you will not get as much blow back from the snow and the snow will further and I think you will do a better job as you will not see as much blow back on what you just did. Give it a try. Nice video's and tractor setup.
    Curt.
