What happens here
This video showcases various heavy equipment operations for snow removal and material handling. It demonstrates the use of compact track loaders (skid steers) with different attachments (snow pushers, buckets, pallet forks) to clear snow from commercial and residential areas, stack large snow piles, and retrieve buried equipment. The project also highlights challenges like frozen tracks and missing keys, and briefly touches upon manual roof snow removal.

(10,614 characters)we may have one entire YouTube video just trying to hook up a feta for the road ahead twist in turns and the Sun beats down and it burns but I keep keep on pushing through and every step quicker than the last my feet fit down this beaten path then I keep keep on pushing his a get up so we gotta get those Forks out and that and bring them ball with you want to put the forks in the bucket back to solid ground crunching foreigners to raise my flag and Khan quits so I keep I'll keep on pushing through every step my heart it pounds yes so sure I've helped my dad's but a musky the musty pushin all right guys let's go see what Tim's up to you were bringing the fuel truck okay get fuel on the way all right so we got a stack snow where is our bucket gonna use this one you could choose the sledge the ball ball one of the skid loaders but you want to take this thing why we can get snow with the track who drove it last keys know who I am that's what I've always kept it hmm hopefully he didn't leave the key in it nope he's not in it why we leave him on site that's why we leave him in the equipment so great so Sam's got the key somewhere where the heck would he put it so this was dead last time oh and he parked it backwards backwards and flipped the kill switch switch off and then the plug-in got pulled out from inside the building so the thing it was 20 degrees out and it wouldn't start no and then the the other the old skid steer that's sitting right next to it yeah the 185 that's not the same deal now plug dude just fire it up hey man I'm looking for the keys for the ASB here we're out here right now to move snow in it we don't have any other keys all right he said you're gonna run him down but we don't I don't know nobody have time for that [Music] yeah we're just ready to fall aside we have any other spare keys for it or is that it I could go look for a spare key I don't think I got one I think they did actually give me an extra key but I think they're both on the same always go as planned does it why does he have the key with him I know well I don't know if I want to ride anywhere with you being all sick everything just everything's good just like all morning I wake up and I fall asleep for an hour wake up fall asleep for an hour just yesterday I was working at the rental house yeah trying to get you know just everything's attached trying to sell the house I had to laid out on the floor [Laughter] that's when you know you're tired and they up the forecast to eight to twelve this weekend [Music] and we're broke down this one stills not repaired he called he texted me back sorry I've been busy lately yeah I'm like but then he never said when he was coming out to fix it I know and then I'm like well dude I'm glad to hear you're okay and then he never said oh I'll be out tomorrow to fix it or anything like that I don't know any money yeah but I don't know I'm anything I don't I don't want to pay him money I don't oh um just just hand money over how long does it take Sam to get here sounds good you got the you got the key with you Sam okay your wear this and smelling oh you're at the soccer stadium no wonder oh yeah you're not very far away all right awesome okay we'll see yeah but so at least we were able to locate the key and Sam is going to be bringing it out now we could just grab a different skid loader we did actually use this Volvo right with this exact setup once before to stack snow and it works good for vertical stacking but we today need to actually drive up into the piles and these winter tires in this setup isn't going to allow us to do that in fact the ASV is about the only thing we have that can actually drive on top of the snow it didn't take as long as we thought for Sam to get the keys out to us at least took them about five minutes so have you ever tried to start that thing let me show you how to do it yeah this is slippery up here clear am i doing something wrong no just it's got a cycle through a couple times and then it'll go it'll do it no its own shut the air off all right yeah I always power down all the axillary so you know waste the battery till it gets fired up yep yeah it'll shut when the glow plugs shut off then it'll allow you to start how do we that's it she's and she starts no matter what the temperature is that's that's not bad-mouthing that's a fact it's stupid we've had problems with it starting we had to jump it when it was turning over we had to jump it just to give it an extra place yeah swap the battery on it what's at the witch with the potty mouth oK you've been potty mouth on it all morning you get a little tiny flu bug and all of a sudden captain swirly peak captain turns into captain toilet mouth all right you're gonna disconnect it or you want me to do it so since we're gonna be snacking snow we're actually gonna be using the dirt bucket but to get to where we need to stack the snow we got a whole bunch of dumpsters that are in the way so we also need to bring the forks unfortunate truth is the forks are right behind them buried in that snowbank and what one more thing is there's actually a bucket underneath the forks that we don't know about so to see how well it goes trying to get those marks help from the frozen bucket from the frozen snow they [Music] you're locked so inside that dirt bucket there's a little lift that lifts and actually pick things up almost like a very static dump it's not the greatest scenario but it actually works and if he can get that bucket and that lip over the top of the forks you should be able to scoop them Forks right up it doesn't go quite the way we want oh they're in a bucket hey there in a bucket yeah now normally this would be about a three second operation but of course it's wintertime so nothing goes the way you want it to I almost had it right there II just gotta get the top of the forks into that crease [Music] Raymond this bucket got like smoother is there a pebble in there yeah it's there's above all you're trying to use are you trying to use the bevel to grab on but I don't think so I don't think there's enough hook on the ports to grab laughs actually [Music] so we got to bring the forks with because there's a dumpster on site and we may need to move the dumpster and he wants to for kits that are just [ __ ] I don't think your hook oh yeah your hook your hood so now this for summertime he put his porks up against the curb flicked the back up and then just scoop underneath it but because of the snow you can't really get the forks to go up against the curb the way you want it to so now this turns them to be another challenge that would otherwise be pretty easy if it was sunny out [Music] it doesn't want to cooperate today like anything you try to do in the winters wait he's trying to get the ports on the curve barks dog I guess they're not used to this machine yet I was just telling the guys that's easy winner yeah nothing you do in the winter ever wants to cooperate yeah summertime you know where the curve is you go up give it a little pop and you got the horse in your pocket so any thought about is you put the forks up against the curb you flip the back up you slide right in underneath bada bing butter [Music] we may have one entire YouTube video just trying to hook up a set of pork Hey making YouTube history right now oh yeah yeah so now he's trying to say he's trying to make it look fancy for you guys ten minutes later you know that took ten minutes usually takes 2 seconds dub flip your Forks in the bucket for some reason doesn't work huh we're gonna disagree with Tim because he actually reads some of the comments in the on YouTube and we don't want to hurt his feelings he's a very sensitive man and he's got a baby on the way so he's even more sensitive he's got citizens sensitivity for his life and I'm really sick today he's really sick today are you ready to go down the road yeah all right [Applause] [Music] she come on the Brecker night sky's waving goodbye [Applause] [Music] just trying afraid this time [Music] so the only place we have in this entire complex the pile snow happens to be directly behind these two dumpsters well that's at least what the management company thought but the people that actually live in the townhome Association they weren't so keen on that idea so after we get a nice big pile of snow stockpiled behind the dumpsters we get a visit from one of the town hall members it's the winter that just keeps on giving you come out a break when I hit you [Music] [Applause] things awesome ain't gonna focus you know what Street the snow is if it's dirt did you find it like you can build a ramp and climb on the snow I'm pretty good with this oh yeah yeah yeah can't do that with tired machine nothing else this this and we couldn't do this with our 180 or another Bob now but I thought I can stack this pretty day now I went to mall well we got 20 inches of snow coming so we go in here but all I know is behind the dumpsters well we're trying to behind the dumpsters all right I'd make plenty of room because otherwise this whole parking lot is gonna get full of snow there's nowhere to put it right we got cars coming in and I'll always benefit right guys you just catching this we're out of space [Music] as one big snowball we're out of space in our site listen guys are up there for your ice dams and this site is there's nowhere to put snow anymore so we've got to start moving it into parking spaces and we've got a 20 inch event coming that's what she said we thought we could pile snow behind the dumpster but then some lady we've never met [Music] we didn't put snow there I don't know where it's going to all go well alright you guys we ended up taking out a couple parking spaces because the company didn't want to haul it out and we had no other options so we did what we could do well a lot of things didn't go quite the way we plan and I'm gonna guess that sometimes happens for you guys I would love to hear your stories this in their days when you just get up and you think to yourself it's probably would have probably been better if I would have slept all day long then went to work I've had those days and I'm guessing some of you guys would have had them too and I'd love to hear from you guys hey and while you're here do me a favor and check out these two videos right here in fact this video is going to be my latest video and I'm gonna do something cool this video over here is supposedly going to be optimized just for you so check out these two videos while you're here and one last thing guys god bless and go get them
