Snowplow equipment review - Taking a closer look at the Pro-tech Fusion edge sno pusher

What happens here

The presenter demonstrates common operational mistakes. First, incorrectly angling the front of the pusher down can cause it to dig into the surface, creating an uneven finish and potentially damaging the ground. Second, putting the Bobcat in 'float mode' but backing up while the machine is not level causes the blade to angle too far backward. This results in 'dribble,' where material spills out from under the blade instead of being captured, leading to inefficient clearing.

Goal: Identify and avoid common operational errors during snow or material pushing.
