Snowmageddon!

What happens here

Zakk begins the preparation process by outlining the tasks needed before the snowstorm hits. This includes attaching the plow to the primary truck, fixing a flat tire on the black skid steer loader, and preparing the salt spreaders for immediate deployment. He identifies the flat tire on the black skid steer as a critical issue needing immediate attention to ensure all equipment is operational for the anticipated heavy snowfall.

Goal: Prepare essential snow removal equipment and address immediate maintenance needs.

  • Milwaukee M18 Inflator Milwaukee — To re-inflate the flat tire on the skid steer
  • Plow Boss Snowplow — Attachment for snow removal
  • White Ford F-Series Truck Ford — Primary vehicle for snow removal, needs a plow attached

it's not just any winter storm it turns out to be the largest winter storm we've had since 2007 I'm I've already got I'm scheduled to go to Chicago to cover a trade show there then I've got to drive right down from there to Indianapolis to cover work truck week for you guys and then I've got to go on my way back and hit a third show so that was three shows in one week that I'm scheduled to go hit and I can't be there with the boys while the biggest snowstorm of course of the year is coming in if it was just one trade show I've canceled them I've said no I'm not going out of town I'll be here working with the boys but this was three of them and I was just praying that nothing would come but kind of the guys needed the work anyway and so let's see how they do I don't know I haven't watched the video yet I'm I'm recording this intro without ever seeing what happened so I'm going to watch the video and see what happens just like you guys are this could get interesting I don't know what to expect we're getting this done uh this is getting the plow on vssi is coming off I got to fix a black skid steer right now this tire right now it popped off off the bead yesterday or whatever I was at home so Alex had to come in and fix it cuz we snow coming tonight but as you can see everything's just mud again as usual got the Milwaukee pump out cuz this tire was low oh I'm going to go through all the rest of the tires where that's the only reason it would pop off is if it was low but we don't really use this skid a lot
