We have Tons of Heavy wet snow to plow- comparing snow pushers

[@Aepek]

When it’s rolling the snow.....looks like carpet or some kind of building material(house wrap etc...), 😆 Really cool technology in a "simple" thing, lol. Amazing

[@mikescarsandcommercialtruc6521]

Your the man Stanley

[@ijtoyosi]

I run one. Had a HD14 and sold it for a HD11.5 and love it on the front of a case 521. Scrape better than anything else. The skids on the wings can be a pain to replace the wear edges if the wing gets tweaked at all, which will happen. I’d like to see them make a model that angles in the future. Best of both worlds

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the comments Isaac!

[@wyattzeeff2220]

Angle models are coming soon, running one right now

[@kennyp507]

Thanks for the video, first year owner of a small 6ft pusher for my compact tractor, in retro spec your operation vs my driveway clearing is like comparing apples to oranges, but your video has offered great insight on what you want to do as far as setting up your next push while doing the first push, thanks, also I couldn't watch your earlier videos, you were just to hyper / loud lol, glad see things have gotten smoother.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for watching Kenny !

[@Aepek]

YES would like to see the diff plows from manufactures/brands to see what they can do.... Side note: the scratch on floor is repairable....👍🏻

[@lapointe122]

Metalpless from Québec😎

[@sunshaker01]

One plow combination that I've never seen you cover is a front mounted plow on a tractor (sometimes with a snowblower or boxblade on the back), locally a lot of large parking lots are cleared by that setup (possibly farmers running a plowing business in the winter which is a good plan actually). There is a KZbinr, DLH Farms (farming/excavation channel), that has videos up showing a few of those setups when the Excavation company gets called up by the DoT to clear the roads.

[@jamesterrio5895]

I have been watching you on you tub on here for 2 to 3 years now every winter here and i learn a lot from you you have a lot of great info and i work for a snow removal company i love watching your videos and i also watch you summer time one there as well and they are a amazing to watch all the work you put your tools in it a amazing how it comes all together and i have to say that you put out a lot of great info on here i'm glad some one that dose a you tub video like these there is a lot of people that don't know how to do snow removal the way it should be done .I have been doing snow removal for a long time now for the last 4 to 5 years now and i know i have said this but your just awsome .I know i would like to come out and visit you and see what its like to work with you and learn a lot form you so i can come back home and show these people that don't know how to plow right that is one thing i want to learn is how to plow . the company is going to show me how to do that but they have not yet lol but i giveing them time they are trying ps. as along as you keep makeing videos of winter and summer i will keep watching be safe team standley you guys rock

[@loganbrady9070]

Best plows on the market glad that they make them in my hometown Kankakee Great service Lucas is an awesome guy to deal with great Customer service

[@Dirtmonkey]

That's cool Logan, thanks for viewing !

[@aaronlaro2083]

I feel your pain, I'm 300 miles NW of you and I have spent more time clearing snow at my work this winter than I have in the last 5 years combined

[@xenonram]

Pain? That snow is money to him.

[@paulnovak833]

Pain? Quit being a little bitch

[@oby-1607]

At 18:40, Man that was a bulldozer. These Arctics are the way to handle that crap that falls from the sky.

[@Eagle7834]

I just bought the hla snow wing. We are up in Alberta. Where it’s warm. Than minus 40. Than warm. We deal a lot with snow packed snow on asphault. I see all your videos are of pushing fresh snow right after a snow fall. We don’t have that luxury, so we are scraping extremely hard pack. Any videos and tips on that. Our cutting edges do not last long. But great videos.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Dale and thanks for the video suggestion !

[@Eagle7834]

I forgot to mention I do love the snow wing. It is a bit heavy for our case 430 skidsteer. But we have been plowing for over 20 years. Lot of places we do we have to for then to call is to go. Which I hate because of how hard the snow pack gets. I have looked into the grader shark edges. But not sure if you can get them for the the hla blades. Would help with cutting but it would leave behind small trails.

[@redclifford3723]

Did you check out the hla edge flex? I think its worth the extra money, the scrape is great and your machine isn't taking 100% of the full impact. We've found that if we throw down a little bit of salt before a storm, it helps with our sites with bad hard pack(usually sites with high traffic). The snow doesn't bond to the pavement due to the salt(brine). Obviously this doesn't help if you don't use salt - Cheers!

[@willy_larry]

Love the house, sorry about the hard wood scratch. My father in law just bought a log house in durango colorado for my fiance and I to put in proper condition. It was snowed in by two feet of snow which started me on your videos. Your retaining wall videos caught me off guard but started watching them and started realizing we have more problems than originally thought. We have questionable everything going on from surface water collection into a pond to retaining walls ready to fail, a spiral stair wrapped around a three foot diameter log that isn't finished running from a basement to a second story, roof failures leading to structural damage of header boards, basement finish work that wasn't permitted and may be questionable. The hard wood floors we currently have are toung and groove 2x4 basically and are the deck board and curious if there is a thickness minimum they can be sanded to? Watched your videos on that too, your a very knowledgeable polsky. The hitting the ice block damage!!!! I feel there could be a lot of helpful insite from a video dedicated to what you do with with each piece of equipment for snow and what is too much for a plow truck. Where you need the skid, where you need something heavier and when you need to start having dump trucks haul off snow. Lots differ but some may not have space. How large of a run to push per inch of snow, how much snow actually weighs in front of a passenger duty pickup. We had to clear our drive with two skids, way too much and too tight quarters for a plow truck. You could use some volume control in your videos too lol. When the music starts and its louder than you or vise versa it's hard to not wake up the wifey when watching your videos at crazy hours.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for all the comments William and thanks you for watching !

[@znarcuss]

a little message for lucas we still use trip edge in the airport for snow removal anyway in montreal airport ! but most of the blade are with teflon cutting edge so they wont rip the ground light out ! there some machine that dont have trip edge les the broom plows but the plows are made out of plastic

[@PatrickHutchison-yu4mn]

Great plow, time saver with 1 pass

[@BushBoy_7567]

So it is actually rolling the snow, that’s cool

[@declanwalther3288]

They need to make one for garden tractors that bolt on to the standard John Deere plow frame with the sectional trip edges and the individual maul-board.

[@Sicktrickintuner]

Declan Walther Not heavy enough to do that

[@declanwalther3288]

Sicktrickintuner I never thought of that.

[@shawnengstrom3906]

The Arctic Sectional is definitely more expensive, but worth every penny. Don't know any operator that has one that regrets spending the money.

[@nathanbrodeur]

Stan the SDLG when it starts pushing snow on its own it rolls it like a carpet

[@shawndiaz7359]

Yea buddy kankakee county!!! Good to hear a shout out. I used to work for acme one of the companies he mentioned.

[@buddy8225]

That is so cool watching these pushers work. 😀

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for watching Ricky !

[@roynelson7613]

One hell of a setup I tell you what when it comes to removing snow it's all about how you get along with equipment on what's best for you I notice you put your workers where they fit best and that's cool man you guys stay safe and we'll see you around👊👊👊👊🤙🤙🤙🤙👍👍👍👍😎😎

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Roy , stay safe too !

[@keagansmith9776]

I think it would be cool if you did a comparison of all the different plow manufacturers.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the suggestion Keagan and thank you for watching !

[@antonlueker9648]

Those artic sectional pushers look awesome man I want one. Do you think you can get a metal pless demo and do a video on it? I know they’re much more expensive with all the electrical and hydraulic components but heard good things about them. Thanks for the snow ❄️ videos appreciate the reviews!!!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Anton, appreciate you watching !

[@mattcuric9637]

Metal pless makes all these pushers look like they’re from the Stone Age

[@rarhart2435]

The company I work for has owned these plows ever since they were released

[@willydiesel2081]

Just a heads up. Randy the owner got the idea from Eurooe.. They were doing it long before...

[@legendaryexplorer8119]

Nice video! Keep up the awesome work!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you !

[@thomassoltis5862]

Bad to the bone brother thats some plow keep up the awesome work god bless you and your family

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Thomas!!

[@ronmack1767]

Enjoyed the video. That is some nice equipment. Thanks for taking the time to produce them. If your new flooring in not laminate you could try the product old English scratch cover. Really works nice. They do make Scratch cover markers but with th e natural light coming in that might highlight the scratch. Take care and God bless.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you Ron and the same to you !

[@chrisuscilla2606]

I want to see a metal pless live edge or a metal pless hydraulic wing plow. Those arctic sectionals are like ancient technology compared to metal pless plows. Metal pless is a lot heavy dutier

[@mattcuric9637]

Amen that’s always what I say lol. They are all from the Stone Age

[@quik-n-ezconcretecreations9013]

AWESOME VIDEO!!!!! I would like to see the Kage in your tests along with the others you mentioned.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you !!

[@mattcuric9637]

Kage is an ancient pusher compared to metal pless, unless your looking for low cost pusher

[@quik-n-ezconcretecreations9013]

@@mattcuric9637 what's your thoughts on these arctic sectional pushers?

[@mattcuric9637]

Quik-N-Ez Concrete Creations there not bad there top of the line plow cost a lot less then a metal pless, and there is a lot less that can go wrong with these plows but in the same way you can’t do nearly as much as what you would with a metal pless, we haven’t had any major problems with metal pless, the worst that could happen is you blow a hydraulic line on your wing and you have to chain both wings up, so you pretty much have a straight box pusher for the rest of the storm, with all the same functions as a sectional snow pusher

[@harryhogan-shaw5472]

You should totally test boss, metalpless, protech, etc. that would be a AWESOME video

[@selfrelianthomestead7842]

Love your videos, I would definitely like to see a comparison in Kage and Artic

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Robert and thank you for the suggestion!

[@peterheigel7481]

Hey have you ever heard of a toro multi-force. It would be great for doing side walks and even better for fall clean up. I would love to see a video on it sometime and it would replace your four wheeler for plowing.

[@Dirtmonkey]

I will keep that in mind, thanks Peter!

[@richardm1631]

Those arctic plow is awesome great investment

[@46GarageUSA]

WHEN'S the Ariens review between that single stage pro model vs the track model ? And for fun add in The Sno Joe 2 stage battery operated snowblower in ?? Electric is getting more popular for home owners, especially retired folks, no gas... And tell that Artic Pusher owner make a plow for a ATV AND UTV.. I'd buy one for either.

[@rustybuttrusty9960]

Great video . Thanks

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Russ!

[@dgdservices9993]

We enjoy our Arctic Sectional Sno-Pusher. ( Case branded )

[@Doug2114]

Another great video. I'm gonna have to go to Minnesota to get into a piece of equipment, not much snow in PA.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Doug , plenty of snow here!!

[@procut5127]

Hey Stan. Thanks for the informative videos. I currently run a Boss box on a front end loader and would like to see you test one against the Arctic Sectional box. I would like to see if it scrapes cleaner than the Boss does.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thank you and thanks for the suggestion !

[@godzilladestroyscities1757]

Good year to test this stuff. February has been most regrettable.

[@Buchnell]

TLB compare. We have a FORD 1986 TLB 5558 this last week took it out and warming it up to plow snow and sounded like it was missing note it sits in heated shop all winter to be ready at any time. took injector out on the coolest cylinder and took for testing thinking simple. Nope that was good took machine in here a Valve broke now looking at $5000 motor repair on a machine not worth that. so pulled the head and replaced valves yippie back up and running but a ticking time bomb. Looking for advice on brand to buy looking to get a slightly used machine like 1000 hours on it we do Tiling spring and Fall then move snow in the winter with it and other Farm duties here in southern MN.

[@trenton1880]

We had a Ford 655D tlb was a good unit but we ended up trading for a Terex 760 B that's been a really good machine for us we run a 13 foot universal straight blade on it.

[@Foxracing2320]

What size of skid steers are you running in this video Stan? Do they work well at pushing? Looking for commercial snow equipment for parking lots and Im told an s450 and a toolcat are too light to push snow. Im under a strict budget though and can only get one piece of equipment.

[@kylerstephan5115]

Stan, what happened with the quattro plow? Was it just a demo? Wondering why we don't see that anymore :)

[@FishFind3000]

I wanna see a head to head little loader vs proper loader and who can push more and further with less bogging

[@xenonram]

Guess... One is a "mini" loader, one is not mini.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks for the suggestion !

[@nolanmacdougall1154]

FishFind3000 that’s like saying who can pick up more weight a power lifter or a regular person lol

[@24dmclean]

Most amazing piece of equipment I have ever seen in action not personally used but my boss loves it I wouldn't consider ever using a standard box ever again the time and effort it takes to go next to a curb and the spring cleanup is amazing they make it so the boxes smaller so smaller machines can use it in attaches to a variations of everything almost and it's just it's even good enough to use for like if people are doing dirt material I mean you have to increase the frame little bit but it's just an amazing piece of material big fan love all of it keep it up just upstate New Yorker 20 minutes from the border

Reasons why I shovel my driveway before the Sun has a chance to melt it. So much easier. Maybe takes 10 minutes versus 30-45 if I wait

[@answeris4217]

Moving mountains of snow... lol... My snowbank is 12 foot tall and 30 feet deep and is 12 foot wide. Nobody where I live would have such a small blade.

[@hobbyguy79]

Looking forward to seeing metalpless live edge wing blade on a skid steer. I run one at work and I hate it. It does a pretty good job but IMHO as an operator the sightlines are bad and it isn't very user friendly

[@stanleybennett8879]

How do the handle 2 feet of wet heavy snow and the plow piles are 3 to 4 times bigger,

[@FUNNYBOY12375]

I think I asked in a previous video but would you consider selling the tlbs for one or two sledges and use them for moving snow and loading dump trucks

[@mattsaul8289]

Loving these videos. Informative and interesting.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Matt!!

[@Foxracing2320]

hey Stanley, How do you like your volvo skid? Does the single arm work well with pushing snow? Looked at a JCB and wondered how they would push with the single arm!

Will do, thanks Kyle !

No problem we are actually considering about purchasing one ourselves we use there straight blades

On the sectional unit after time will rust set in and not allow those units to slide as freely ? I would think eventually it has to rust and a section has to jam up ?
