Snow Throw and Demo

Setting up a 1985 John Deere 430 with a 500lb 3Pt Hitch Ballast Box and a JD 47 two stage snow thrower....and having an accident.

Love the choice of music. Great video.

I'm right there alongside of you , I took my garage door down last year because I forgot to lower my three-point snowblower before I backed in chute caught that sucker and away it went😂😂. Anyway greetings from north dakota. Just west of fargo

[@worknprogress4215]

Thanks Rusty. It only takes a couple of seconds for the point of no return. Spent a lot of time in the Dakotas watching my dad, uncle, and cousins harvest every fall.

I liked the music, keep it. And keep being an inspiration. Gives us hope knowing that there are still kind and decent beings out there. Thank you!!!

[@worknprogress4215]

Thank Amanda.

[@CaptMaxADV]

Great demo! And super friendly and neighborly of you!

[@worknprogress4215]

Thanks for the comment Capt Max. And for not hating the music😃

Time to park the mower in the back of the shed and ready the JD before the snow flys.

[@worknprogress4215]

That is normally the procedure Anthony. The zero turn usually gets parked in that old pool shed after I hook up the tractor. Was working on too many projects and I didn't get it done in time. Thanks for watching.

Drop the music it would be much better. Sound of the equipment is much better.

[@worknprogress4215]

I cant disagree that the Yanmar purr is a music of its own. Maybe on the next one Peter.

[@CaptMaxADV]

Yeah, but it was a good choice of music!

[@darryldais3075]

Great video, Jeremy! That JD430 is a power house.

[@worknprogress4215]

Thanks Darryl. Dad bought it new in 85. Has about 1100 hrs. Beginning to suspect it may outlast me. 😀

Very true, especially when it took half the rear of the shed at the end of the video, didn't even broke a shear pin... 🤨🤔😰 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aarQpIV8i8ergpY Well it could have been worst, that gas can that was outside the shed and got propelled just in front of the blower after the wall was destroyed could have caught on fire and burn everything down, including the poor JD 430. My god, that was painful to watch. Hopefully the damages were not too expensive to repair.

[@Two_Buck]

Ouch at the end there.

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

Ouu, that was nasty at the end there. Nice job on clearing driveways. Having a power top chute deflector would be a great thing for you. It helps to keep the snow off you. And put the snow where you want. Ya, no music, just tractor sounds would be better. Have a good day.

[@worknprogress4215]

This spring I will address that issue Noel. Thanks for the comment.

[@bradmonrean2307]

Hate to admit it, but I've done stuff like that. Lol!

[@worknprogress4215]

I was tempted to cut that part out Brad, but life happens. First time in decades I made a major mistake with that tractor. I might as well be honest about it.

[@davidsandberg7631]

I also have a 430 but no snow blower or blade...

[@worknprogress4215]

They make a great mower for larger lawns. I switched to a zero turn for that. So the 430 is now mainly a grading and snow removal machine.
