Battling the Blizzard: Big Loader vs. Epic Snowstorm!

What happens here

To maximize efficiency, aim to collect a full bucket of snow with each pass, a technique known as "hogging snow." For a loader without a dedicated 'pusher' attachment, the bucket's capacity is key. Consider the use of a deep sidewall bucket (like an Arctic Pusher) if available, as it can contain a significantly larger volume of snow, allowing for deeper and more efficient pushes. This is particularly beneficial for managing large quantities or heavy snow.

Goal: Maximize snow volume per pass and adjust equipment as needed.

reconnect get this CL come on let's go ha r h charl come on I'm trying to get stuff set up I haven't plowed in this machine yet so well let me give you give me a moment every loader is different you know there we go this point we're just hogging soow wish we had a this one would handle it 17t or no whatsoever so I could go up in that Middle Island but feel this curb feel this curb oh there we go we felt it oh here comes the mecalac with the right equipment on it yes my 74 horsepower loader will do a better job because it has a the right equipment on nobody saw me get that grass there you did not see that even though it's one that I'm still doing more than nothing it's got that weird new loader smell we'll let let him clean up the Massa pilot on yeah the best part about running something like this is you get to play in a piece of equipment like this and get paid for it does life get better does it get better than that I don't could I'm getting paid to run this load right now um yeah sign me up all right so he does not have his Pusher down all the way you can see because his Arctic the straight better than now which is fine and you got to dial it in you got to get that feel for like I said first sow you always got so much to deal with so my pusher for this is still in Chicago ant arctic's headquar and I do have a special one coming for and the difference is cuz this machine can handle such a big Pusher I didn't want to go as wide I wanted to go deeper so I wanted real
