Blowing Snow with a 3-Point Snow Blower on a Case 830 Tractor/Digging Out from Another Snowstorm!

The Dairy Farm was hit by another snowstorm leaving behind a foot of snow. With the feed truck coming, Alan had to at least get the one driveway opened up for him to get through. To do that, Alan put our 3-point snowblower onto the 830 Case Tractor with the loader. Alan started moving some snow using the blower and the loader bucket. While Alan was clearing the driveway, Jen started shoveling snow off the roof of the dairy barn. The one side of the barn tends to drift, so the snow really accumulated quickly. The next day, we were back at it. Alan cleared a path to the dairy cow pasture in case the cows needed hay. The Dairy cows got let out to stretch their legs after staying in the barn during the storm. Jen worked on more of the roofs around the farm with a roof rake. Soon enough, it was chore time again. The cows get let back in and started getting milked.

I find the videos of your family farm quite relaxing. I'm sure it's a lot of work for you, but all the love your family shares daily is something many will never experience. I'm sending virtual hugs to the entire family, thanking all for sharing the true meaning of life! Happy New Year!

[@trinitydairy]

We truly enjoy making the videos. We have family in Montana, so it's also a great way to keep in touch with them. Happy New Year!

[@rctractorwizard]

I never get tired of watching vintage tractors getting the job done! Keep up the good work! God bless you and your family in this new year!

[@canvids1]

God Bless you on your farm as I was born 1940 and yes I can remember storms like you just got as I got older. When i was maybe 10 or eleven I was turned out on a Farmall M or a H with a V Plow to clean out drive ways and ours and neighbours. Used to get many storms like you are showing. No snow blowers back then and I can remember many storms like you are showing. Thanks for showing as it brings back many memories for sure.😊

[@farmerbill6855]

I love the smell of an active dairy barn. Nothing like it.

[@ronniebond7435]

Awesome video good to see and hear the ol case 830 in action

[@chadshafer8095]

Enjoy watching you. Nice to see older Equipment getting the job done.

[@garyforney9421]

Watching the milking is like a trip down memory lane. Thanks

[@mennoreuten1563]

I can onestly say i dont miss that white powder big time,we have work enough as it is, but it gives beatiful pictures for sure, thanks and greetings from a Dutch dairyfarmer

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great job plowing and blowing snow Alan

[@josephwarner8349]

We had 3 830 Case tractors - first 830 gas Case O Matic, second 830 Diesel Case O Matic, third 830 Case Comfort King Diesel. Great to see the tractor working. I spent many hours plowing snow with them. Brings back memories!

[@richardharms8748]

Another great video. In Rochester area we only got maybe 2 inches. Thanks for sharing.

[@josephkitchel6259]

Like the top hat on the tractor! Stay warm.

[@Captain_Koz]

I could watch your guys videos forever! Same life I grew up with but hogs in Iowa. Just feels at home!

[@donaldwallace7934]

I saw the quality control inspectors hard at work in the milk parlor. (the kitties). And really❄️❄️❄️that’s good enough?!!! Lol. I can only imagine how difficult it must be keeping the roofs cleared of all that snow. Great video as usual!! Stay warm up there in Gods Country…A little story with that phrase…..My Mom grew up in Deerwood, MN. My Dad always referred to the area there as Gods Country. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I think because of the harsh winters, not sure though!

[@trinitydairy]

Yes, we have 4 young kittens now, too. Deerwood is a beautiful area. We swing through there if we go to Brainerd.

[@andylieffring2461]

So jealous of all that snow. Brings back memories of my childhood in SE Wisconsin

[@waynehansen8932]

nice to see the whole family involved in your operation enjoy watching the old cases and ihs working i have them also

[@skipruckert4605]

Alan and Jen, boy the picture of the 830 case blowing snow would have made a beautiful Christmas card. But it was nice watching Alan deal with the snow, with the dim lights on the tractor it was beautiful. And then Jens over there pulling down snow with some type of a rake. You have so much more snow than what we have in Western PA. Please be safe. Skip, Western PA

[@ADSC2006]

The girls sure looked happy to get out and stretch after the storm.

[@leol1682]

Thanks for the video Like it in 70's and 80's wen was younger .we had snow .

[@heatherkohlwey8379]

Good old faithful Case. At least the really nasty cold weather didn't last long. You have good soil moisture for spring and insulation for the hay crop. Stay safe and God bless.

[@ryanlesperance7926]

It looks like you'll have some decent moisture to start the growing season with!

[@trinitydairy]

I think so. The ground never really froze before we got snow, so it should soak in.

[@ryanlesperance7926]

We have beef cows and there's little to no frost in the ground. Darn near got my skid steer stuck today. Located near Chippewa Falls wi

[@davidmicalizio824]

Happy New Year!!

Happy New year!

[@johnhenderson299]

That is a great working snowblower and tractor

[@terrynoland487]

Another excellent video again always enjoy watching them thanks for sharing

[@douglasmayherjr.5733]

Nice to see the Case 830 putting in work. My Uncle had a gas version with a Kelly loader. It was a decent old tractor once they lowered the idle speed down, and used the torque converter how it was designed. The Case O Matic was out of the box thinking for the time in an agricultural application. Thanks for the videos.

[@trinitydairy]

Yeah, those case o matics are nice, once you get the hang of them!

[@misterz2719]

I think your name should be super Jen. But your whole family are hard workers.

[@philipr7686]

I have that scraper that's being used on the barn floor! 👍👍

[@frankarl3496]

You sure have some nice looking cows, very clean and well behaved.

[@ralphriddle8864]

Good job and God bless yall

Great video, have a great day!

[@french-canadianfarmer5049]

Wow! We completly missed that storm. Beautiful cows and beautiful barn.

[@charlietanner6211]

great white keep it up north we dont want it in mo stay safe/warm GOD bless good looking milk we had neighbour that milked always got milk from him lot better than store bought

[@trinitydairy]

That it is!

[@anthonyhengst2908]

Happy New Year guys. We have a 3 point snowblower, one time I picked up a pebble on the driveway and put through the cinder block wall on the barn fortunately none of the cows were hurt but we never used it again. All bucket work after that. We do have a plow blade that is attached to the 3020 JD and we do use that once in awhile. Your 830 sounds great when it grunts.

[@trinitydairy]

Wow! That's crazy!

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Alan

[@ryunslegendairy4320]

We had a 4 day blizzard a couple weeks ago. And we got lots. I made a video on it. Another great video

[@derrickzenner9300]

One bad snow storm the boss said to take the snow blower up on the barn roof. It worked pretty well too.

[@jeffreyhall5679]

At least the blower makes a good counter balance

[@robertguidry4577]

Now this what I truly like about living in the South.

[@lordofhowell7158]

I hope that tractor has heating 😂 Brilliant video 💪🏻 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

We got eight and a half inches up in Carlton county. They say it’s close to record snow season-to-date so it seems like all we’re doing is plowing the bale and cattle yard this winter. Bet you love having that snowblower with a cab tractor. We have an eight foot wide Farm King that strains a 98hp New Holland. Looked like your tractor was working too.

[@trinitydairy]

Yes, we were just saying the same thing. We're either busy preparing for snow or cleaning up after snow. You hit a drift, and she's working for sure.

[@Travis_Rivers]

I love watching you guys at work so satisfying and I love that Ole case .

[@janandersson9652]

Good film, so nice you have it with snow and nice weather, here in Sweden it's just rain and gray weather. Good continuation in the new year.

[@nashcobb3056]

thank you

[@davidcrawford1085]

Gee Jen, dont get lost in thoughs snow banks, they look taller than you!!

[@trinitydairy]

They were! It's definitely the most snow I've ever seen since Alan and I got married.

[@ssmith1931]

Equipment sounds better than I do in that weather😂cows will be giving icecream

[@Plowboy4960]

We use to get snows like that when I was a kid now we don't get nothing like that no more always enjoy the videosThanks for the adventure

God bless you all at trinity dairy! Spring is coming!!

[@ratterrier6181]

Wow you guys sure get alot of snow When I was a kid in the 70s we got snow like that here in northwest Ohio But know not so much thanks for the video

[@robertenglebrecht668]

Good job on keeping those cows clean.

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

That's a neat rake to clean off the roof , never seen one of those. Cows and licking those milker hoses🙄. I've got a couple that'll pull the machine right off themselves or the cow next to her 🤷‍♂️🤣🤣

[@CMDSR]

Great day those drifts look really deep. The rest looks a lot deeper than a foot. Just amazing how something so beautiful can be so dangerous at the same time.

[@teresadroessler9872]

Great video,I like the side curtains on the 830,I put plywood curtains on my 1080 Massey

[@koreymartinson7238]

The old case is pretty impressive with those chains on!

[@randytrull6194]

You do good with the snow. I hate snow. Good video.

[@alisciamarotta3888]

Glad you have that snow blower, seems like it does a great job. I couldn't imagine trying to clean all that snow with the tractor bucket! Be safe on them roofs!

[@jrjr8314]

It’s looking like the snow blower is working out pretty good and I know life hard on the farm hope gets better here on out

[@paultighe3735]

Enjoyed the video, nice filming 🎥

[@kellywilson8440]

She looks cold but it’s winter time Alan , Ten days ago had -16 below here in Ohio and - minus 35 below wind chills just brutal for here , Stay warm as possible and great video regards from Ohio !

[@timothygeorge1191]

Good Video 👍👍👍👍. From Wisconsin Dairyland 🧀🧀. No snow in southern Wisconsin

[@stephenrice4554]

Nice tool paired with that tractor . Damn you got a load of dismantled snowmen piled up there . Great video 👍🇬🇧 your cattle look grand , nice and easy going . Nice coats and good udders. I do love a good looking cow .

[@bluegrallis]

The old Case starts and runs Great!

[@kopenhagenkid]

Happy New Year 🥳 Alan and your family

[@trinitydairy]

Happy New year!

[@drknockers5716]

Great video

[@johnotten960]

The case 830 has lots of torque to handle the snow running great. Snow blowers take lots of power when snow is deep and or wet

[@ronaldfeuerstein435]

Tks for sharing. It looks like you got more snow than us here in mid Michigan. But you are more in line with our upper peninsula. They always have more snow up there. You okay Miss Jen? You did take a pretty good spill there?

[@trinitydairy]

Yes, I had a soft landing

[@ronaldfeuerstein435]

@@trinitydairy a soft landing with a little scream ... lol... ekkkk...

[@trinitydairy]

I thought for sure I was going to get a face full of snow

[@bobrat]

Another good video

[@lesterhertel2945]

Lots of snow

[@timpingel9607]

Good idea getting the snow off the addition. We had ours collapse one year it was only a few years old.The best part the insurance said it was our fault so guess who got to pay for the rebuild. Aleast they lost a customer!!lol

[@DonWelter]

Blowers definitely get the snow out of the way. Using the loader or back blade works well for us until you run out of places to go with the snow. Have a safe and happy New Year!!!

[@trinitydairy]

That's the bad part with our yard. We're really running out of places to put the snow.

[@arthurdewith7608]

It’s important to have this equipment to remove snow on a diary farm

[@alancopper7866]

I have a snow-machaine 8' 3 point behind the 4020 John Deere open station, try that one when it's -9 temperature outside once. Used it to open the gravel road by the house because sometimes the county takes a couple of days to get the road open.

[@trinitydairy]

Oh yes, last winter, I had to plow out Jen's family's driveway with her dad's open station 4020. That was a cold day with the windchill.

[@jeffrey9794]

GREATSHOW

[@bruceprentice6441]

You get a lot of work out of your 30series Case tractors. We had a foot of snow right at Christmas, but it’s all gone now, and rained again today. The addition on my barn has a 4/12 pitch, and as you say, the wind can deliver snow off of the main barn, and make a pile 6 feet deep where it drops on the additions roof. So to allow for the extra snow load, the roof trusses in the addition are spaced at 8 inches apart for the first 10 feet, then 12 for the next 10 feet then increase gradually by 2 inch increments until they reach 3 feet apart at the end of the 60 foot long addition to accommodate the extra snow loading. We often get snow loads like you have this year, and we rarely see a roof with less than a 4/12 pitch. Most are much steeper. Many times barns with a truss roof collapse under snow load’s because the steel plates that hold the truss together rust and fall apart

[@colorado1088]

Good idea adding a length of plastic to the snow rake.

[@trinitydairy]

We bought it with that. It works okay unless it gets twisted.

[@burtzorn4059]

Hopefully most are under cover Or out of the worse weather. Spend all day talking care of the snow. Hopefully not much more for a while. GOOD LUCK !!

[@theda850two]

I love blowing snow as well, I have an 8' behind A 656 hydrostatic farmall. I know the snow you are blowing was heavy, but I'm pretty sure your blower has a situation like mine, the paddles on the fan have a bit too much of a gap to the band. Weld something on to the ends of the paddles and you will see a remarkable difference :)

[@dennishayes65]

I have a 7’ wide 2 auger Renagade made in Canada.

[@thebaldmechanichardatheari1124]

I liked the vitamin E. comment, never heard it call that. Lol. I live in southwest Manitoba Canada and I am sure you have a lot more snow than use. The only thing we can beat you at we are -17C or 1.4 F. 😂. May I am wrong, it looks you guys are at -18 or 0 F. Great video.

[@craiggarrison768]

Try using a leaf blower if you have one available to blow snow off hard to reach places

[@johnalexander8589]

That damn blower pulls pretty hard don’t it

[@trinitydairy]

Yes it does.

[@khayward6331]

Hi folks from Granville ,NY , wondering if this is a typical winter in your area we used to get winters like that but not lately, it's 30's and 40's here and no snow on the ground , we are located in the southern adirondacks on the Vermont border , anyway looks like the old Case does a pretty good job when I was a kid we had a 730 that was the big tractor on the farm, well Happy New Year and stay safe and healthy GOD BLESS

[@trinitydairy]

So far, this is the 2nd snowiest December on record. Duluth, just north of us, almost beat their record. Typically, by February or March, we'll have a lot of snow on the ground. Starting off with this much snow in December is not typical, especially with 3 snow storms, one right after another.

[@khayward6331]

Thanks for the reply I really enjoy your videos, always look forward to the next one 👍👍🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

[@rayanderson4119]

Oh the squeal of the belts at 4:08! It sounds just like our 730 did. I haven't heard that sound in over 40 years! But the engine sound is more like gas than a diesel?

[@KiwiJim13]

👀🙄🐾👍 It all looks very picturesque A&J

[@peteredelhofer6852]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586]

Your blower certainly works well. There is something so satisfying about watching snow removal while I am able to sit inside my warm house. I did actually enjoy helping to shovel out the driveway when I was younger, then to go inside and feel the warmth on your face as it thaws out. You certainly had your work cut out for you. That was some snow. Sure have some lovely cows. Also, I have never seen the roof shovel/whatever you were using, but it certainly seems to work well if you can stand up. Such hard work you all do. Thanks for the video and take care. And may God richly Bless you.

[@scottgriffith742]

Its time for a glass of milk after all that work.

[@thepubliceye]

It looks like the blower needs the high-speed PTO or some pully swops

[@trinitydairy]

I think it has to much clearance between the blower paddles and the housing. I need to build up the paddle ends.

[@stevebrooking4506]

Are you on every day pick up for your milk or every second day? Does it change through the year depending on the season. Hope the snow slows down a bit to reduce your work load. All the best 👍👍

[@trinitydairy]

Every second day, pick up. It's been this way ever since we got a different milk hauler.

[@edrickelman242]

My uncle had a 830 CaseOmatic Diesel that powered the Fox 2 row sliage chopper. I got to drive it sometimes chopping corn silage. Hearing your 830 running the snow blower brings back memories. Do you have heat in the cab?

[@trinitydairy]

With the heat houser, it got really warm in there. I actually had to open the windows.

[@richardwilkens4577]

I have and 830 Case open station and like tractor

[@richardhawks4684]

All the snow😳😳😳ours is on the way😡

[@williammatzek4660]

My guess is that 830 is about 60 horse power. I could hear the load on the engine.

[@trinitydairy]

Yeah about 65

[@timstevens2866]

That blower make your 830 work?

[@trinitydairy]

Yes, especially when it starts to get deep.

[@Andaman1979999]

A nice European tractor with front linkage and pto would real nice on days like that. Save your neck from cramping up the next day
