Snowmageddon!

What happens here

With the skid steer tire fixed, Zakk uses the now operational skid steer to maneuver snow removal attachments. He first moves a large VSI (liquid de-icer) unit, temporarily placing it outside the garage. He then retrieves two large red Boss VX 6500 salt spreaders from inside the garage. He explains that these spreaders are stored on pallets to facilitate easy loading and unloading with a skid steer, preventing damage and making the process efficient.

Goal: Organize and prepare de-icing and salting equipment for trucks.

Tools and materials

  • Black Skid Steer Loader Bobcat — To move and position the VSI and salt spreaders
  • Pallets — Elevating spreaders for easy forklift/skid steer access
  • VSI — De-icing attachment to be moved

one of them [Music] all right I got the vssi out of the back of the truck I got set over here cuz we got to dig for the Salters and stuff so otherwise it'd go inside the shop but that'll go in once the Salter out of the way I'm not getting a Salter on the back of my truck Alex is getting his on his though but I got to unur it cuz mine's in front of him is so we got to get this big bad boy right here out so I got to get this one shifted out of the way yeah and then grab it and pull it out but we got them up both up on pallets so we can easily grab them otherwise you're just scratching up everything breaking everything I'd like to build a plat we like we' like to build a platform for both that way they're easy getting out with skids both sides it's we don't you don't need much of a plate just like how the vsi has yeah instead of me trying to explain you Imaging it in your head and I'm going to show you what I'm complaining about like something like what the vsi is sitting on you see it's got it holes on the side for for forks and it's got holes on this side for loading it with forks we'd like something like that put on our Salters so that way they're easy in and out otherwise cuz it's so easy to take the in that in and out but with one person but all these suters need two people and you need to strap them you got you put straps go through with a hook sit it on the bed and which is fine if you're not taking it out all winter but with us we flip-flopping back and forth to consult brine depending on the weather so flip-flopping would be more convenient but well as you guys are learning Zach likes to talk and he talks a lot which there's nothing wrong with that but he talks enough to the point where there's been many times where Zach is talking
