Mega Snowfall - Snowplowing with 2022 Bobcat Toolcat UW56

[@headhunter4488]

Whats not mentioned is that this rig is between $90,000 and $120,000 new to buy. The average person could hire a contractor to plow snow for many, many years and not spend near that amount. Fun to watch, but out of reach for many.

[@Hasenfeffer1]

Probably a business right off.

[@michaelpayne8000]

Wow that's a serious amount of money 💰

[@jasonthompson9817]

Who gives a rats ass what it costs. He’s not trying to sell you one. Look at all the private aircraft videos, some costing up to 4 mil. They’re not trying to sell you one either. Suck it up dude, don’t chirp this guy just because you’re living in your 20 year old Honda.

[@BigBodyPresence]

We use it at our businesses and snowblow for a few people around town to offset costs. But yeah definitely out of reach for many unfortunately.

[@headhunter4488]

@@BigBodyPresence thanks for a reasonable reply. Good luck with your business. It is a very nice machine and looks to do a great job.

Hey Jordan I’ve watched this on repeat so many times these last few days. Hope if you get a good snow this season you can tack your phone up in the back window and give us an extended video. It’s so relaxing to me. This is a dream machine of mine even though I have a small house!

[@NaterTater]

Great machine and video! I love plowing snow with my Toolcat.

[@mwolrich]

Nate, of course you have a Toolcat 😂 Been looking for a 3-4 year old used one with low hours forever.. using a JD 318 with the Model 47 “refrigerator” 2 stage blower for now.

Videos like this make me glad that I live in Oklahoma You all can have all the fun you want, thanks but no thanks

[@KubotaTractorTherapy]

⚠ Awesome video Jordan ! I opened up YT this morning and your vid was right at the top as a suggested vid 2 watch. Ontario yeah ! Nice to see. We just got nailed a few days ago in the Ottawa area with a ton of snow. Not sure where you are in Ontario, but that is a hell of a lot of snow, and your new machine did a great job. So much power. I have a little Kubota BX2380 and I love it, but this is one sweet ride you have there. Thanks for posting ! 🙂

[@shawnahood3322]

Awesome video Jordan! I hope Bobcat is watching!!

[@jacksak]

This is the best designed and right-sized use of a snow blower I've seen this year. Too often they are under-powered and not sized for the job.

[@billvandorn5332]

It all depends on the hydraulics. Oftentimes a large percentage of power is lost through hydraulics compared to a shaft driven blower.

[@noworriesmate5903]

That would have made the bobcat price out of reach.

[@tomwilliams8675]

Beautiful machine. Can I suggest you get the rubber caps to cover the ends to your hydraulic connections. Inexpensive and fit right over the ends.

[@BigBodyPresence]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@TranceEmotion]

I was thinking the same thing. Well over $110k worth of equipment with no caps, meanwhile my $200 Porta Power has them. you would think it would be standard equipped at that price range.

[@karlk6860]

When I move snow for my neighbor I use his tool cat with a blower we chain up all 4 tires and that machine does a very nice job, very decent power and extremely comfortable, when your working it hard it does go through a fair bit of fuel but its worth it in every way!

[@brentdale5730]

Wherever you live, that looks like my heaven on Earth! Awesome piece of machinery Sir.

hi there wish we would get a snow like that , wanted to try my new toolcat out . i got the blower and plow also . good fun show . my back bumper works , and adds almost 200 lbs ballast to the back, best to all john

I used to put those together when I first started at the Bobcat factory in Gwinner, build the R series loaders now. I always wanted a Toolcat. Still do. lol

[@Utah_Mike]

Excellent!

[@andrewvillanueva3722]

That is a impressive machine

[@highcountryhick]

It moves a lot of snow, at a pretty fast pace. We have a 30hp Kabota with a front blower. It would never move that fast with a full cut. Very impressive

[@damianryan5]

Dream machine, heated cab and drive forwards while snow blowing.

[@BigBodyPresence]

It’s a dream using it too!

[@bash6519]

My neighbor has one of these out here in Tahoe. Has saved my ass many times when it’s gotten too deep for my bronco with a plow. That thing is a beast. I’d love to find a good used one. And make some side cash.

[@RedogZuk]

Cool video. Pro tip. Point the output straight to the side vs straight in the sky 😎🤘🏼☀️☀️

[@BigBodyPresence]

On this unit I find it slows the auger down when the chute is pointed down and it doesn’t throw the snow far. When it’s pointed straight up there’s less resistance for the snow shooting out

[@rickvaiBBB]

You can call it work or play but it looks like a great day.

[@gomezadams9900]

I was trying to determine where this was being shot from. I'm thinking maybe Guelph or S.S. Marie because I can recall getting major snowfalls like that when I was living there. Impressive machine.

[@billvandorn5332]

IF you know you can not secure the equipment out of the elements, use a protective insert for the couplings and cover them with a plastic bag and or a tarp with a bunch of bungee cords. It will prevent ice from freezing in the couplings and lines. Try and spray down the augur, empower and chute with something slippery like WD-40 or silicone. I haven't tried it yet, I hear the new stuff for the cars is good also. I can't remember the name of it and want to say ceramic wax. There may be something even better...

[@She_Calls_Me_Dog]

What a unit

[@corbin707]

I haven't seen the him use the plow yet. That is pretty decent.

[@twodoggarage3019]

On your case drain line do you have a check valve on that line with the flow going from the machine to the blower? Try to figure out if I have a correct setup. Thanks

[@haus05]

pro tip . shut the machine down and cycle your joystick to relieve hydraulic pressure then your hoses will connect with ease

[@mr.red3788]

супер машинка!

[@porterbrass]

Looks totally awesome, but I think orange could do the same thing for a fraction of the cost?

Snow looks dense enough to have a bottom layer of ice. Surprised no chains were needed!

[@piotryczek9114]

Super machine 💪💪💪👍😆👍

[@vinyalonde]

I am not sure what you would call it but the centre front boom to raise and lower the blower is very useful.

[@orsonwells7997]

Good place for the Kubota hydraulic quick connect system.... Just poking in some fun. All the hydraulic connectors will be a pain when they get wet and freeze. Nice unit though. Does it have a front mount finish mower attachment? Hesston used to make a similar setup back in the seventies with all the attachments.

[@BigBodyPresence]

Yeah you can buy the hydraulic quick connect for this machine too. The one option we didn’t get yet haha. Yeah you can use any attachments skid steer can use pretty much including mower. www.bobcat.com/na/en/attachments/equipment/toolcat

[@DHESS007]

Nice unit all the way around. The blower really has some guts. Is the Bobcat weighted quite a bit so you are not spinning out? Very nice.

[@BigBodyPresence]

No we have the summer turf tires on too! Only got half stuck once but was able to wiggle itself out.

[@Mrbink01]

@@BigBodyPresence Turf tires are fine, just get a set of chains for the rear.

[@Cadaverine1990]

It's getting to the point where some individuals that have a bit of mechanical know how are just going to build their own or take broken down ones and replace everything in them.

[@VikingShipExplorer]

@@Cadaverine1990 That's what I did. I can't afford something like this, and even a tractor and blower is out of reach with only a few years left till retirement. So I put a 6 foot Frontier blower on a truck and put an engine in the box to run the blower. It's all PTO driven and throws snow 60 feet. Cost was around $6,500.00 tax in. It's strictly a dedicated snow removal machine and works very well on my 1/4 mile acreage road with our Saskatchewan winters. A tractor would have been nice and would get more use out of it, but $$$ in the bank, dictate what toys you get to have.

[@artmrosla67]

Good morning Jordan, I know you have the trolls commenting here so I’m not going down that whole!!! One thing I would like to ask you is, … what size orbit motor did they install on this blower??? It probably is a Char Lynn motor but there should be a nine digit number on the tag. Many times the dealer unloads whatever they have on the lot and it’s not correctly matched with your machine. I say this because that blower should be able to throw the snow a good 45 feet!!! I know this was a lot of snow and anything is better than a shovel!!! Lol I ran into this issue with my snowblower and it is costly to swap out the motors. For me it was $1,300 just for the motor to be placed on the counter!!! Those toolcats are a nice unit but extremely expensive to repair so if you are using this commercially, … keep that in mind!!! I seen guy’s snap of the casting on the boom where it attaches to the plate from pushing snow with a blade and hitting things!!! Great video and I wish you well!!! Art

[@BigBodyPresence]

Haha thanks for not trolling! We ordered the snowblower from the factory and it came with a Danfoss 160cc 26-31 gpm motor. Thanks for the information and shared experience!

[@dalejoreye839]

We have one at the county I work for. Not a bad little machine but we drive it all over the county at I think 17 mph. Lol

Where are you going to push it when the snow piles up?

[@realtruth716]

Good machine pal, could of used that here in Buffalo after the blizzard..

[@jasontaylor9871]

Makes my snow shovel look sad!

[@rcguymike]

It always seems like the impeller is undersized on hydraulic snowblowers. The auger seems to push the snow out front rather than draw it into the impeller which spills snow over the side, the machine doesn't seem to struggle much. I'd guess my rear 3pt blower on a tractor could go about the same speed, throw the snow much further and have hardly any spill out the side. What's the diameter and RPM on the impeller? Still beats shoveling or a plow truck 😁

[@simrandhaliwal8195]

I noticed that as well. Hydraulic blowers dont do nearly as well

[@YOSHI450R]

Yeah watching this I was disappointed by how short the throw distance was, my walk behind Toro throws twice the distance with heavy wet snow. I was kinda disappointed to see no teeth as well, smooth sucks when the snow gets hard

[@BigBodyPresence]

20” diameter

[@rcguymike]

The one on my 3pt blower is 24" so if the RPMs are similar that would explain the throw distance difference

[@richscott2952]

What is the model number of the snowblower and the model number of the v plow ? I have tool cat need snow stuff what do you use more blower or the plow ? Do you have 24 inches of snow you can lend me ,great video !!

[@BigBodyPresence]

Snowblower is the SB32x74 and plow is the 96” bobcat v plow. Use both fairly equally. Use the plow early season more when the ground is still soft and there are lots of rocks on our gravel driveway then blower we use more mid season when all the white fluffy snow comes and the ground is nice and frozen. Kinda need both. They are both very capable. Haha we need all the snow we can get! Lots of snowmobile trails around us.

Nature doesn't have bad weather - Every weather is a grace. Rain or snow - any time of the year We must accept it gratefully. Echoes of spiritual bad weather, There is a seal in the heart of loneliness, And insomnia sorrowful shoots We should gratefully accept, We must accept it gratefully. Death of desires, years and adversity - Every day the luggage becomes more and more unbearable. What is assigned to you by nature, You should gratefully accept. Change of years, sunsets and sunrises And the last grace of love, As well as the date of your departure, You should gratefully accept, We must accept it gratefully. Nature doesn't have bad weather, The course of time cannot be stopped. The autumn of life, like the autumn of the year, Must be blessed without sorrow. It is necessary, without grieving, to bless, It is necessary, without grieving, to bless..

This is all light and fluffy snow. How does it do with wet snow? that's the real question

[@BigBodyPresence]

No snowblower really does well in super wet snow in my opinion. If it’s super wet we will switch to the plow usually.

[@billthompson8182]

Doesn't seem to be throwing very far. Rpms not up? I've seen push blowers throwing further...

[@BigBodyPresence]

Yeah rpms are up. All depends on how wet the snow is. In this video It may be hard to tell but it was getting a solid 30-40ft in horizontal distance away from the machine.

[@billthompson8182]

@BigBodyPresence I can see that. Wet or not, it's still not far for such a big machine. How many horsepower is it? Could it be hindered by the hydraulic flow rate?

[@BigBodyPresence]

@billthompson8182 61 HP with high flow 27.9 gal/min hydraulics. Hydraulic blower is great for us because you can lift it up to full height (8 feet ish) and chisel away at snowbanks and what not. We had a PTO blower on our last bobcat and it was significantly worse than this hydraulic blower.

We usually store the blower and the machine inside the garage so we rarely have this issue

[@tomn6863]

If they would just add a cylinder where that linkage is so you can push yourself out with the bucket when stuck. That is the real downside to these machines. The bucket doesn't tip forward much over center.

Got it semi stuck once last weekend with the v plow and was able to use the folding of the v plow to push it out. But yeah your right the bucket doesn’t tip forward too far
