Paul, you just get to have way to much fun on a snow day. I bet even the neighborhood kids are jealous of you. Happy tractoring my friend.

Paul: I'm glad you can put these video's on here. I don't think that 90% of the people on here know what we go thur living here in the north. You are above me here in Vermont but we have had 8 days in a row below -O now.

Sweet setup... I was thinking about the same kind of setup and wondered if the bucket curl cylinders could be unhooked and the bucket tilt on the joystick could be used for snowblade left or right? If the bucket curl hoses were unhooked would they essentially freeze the curl cylinders? Anyone try this?

Ya David your right. Although I do enjoy seat time it gets pretty tiring when it starts to fall and won't stop. Like you we get the winds as well and its not much fun then.
You take care down there.

I'm not sure how well that would work because the tilt cylinders would seep down after awhile changing the angle but if you put in a diverter valve you could make it work but I still prefer the 3rd function in my case.

Ya their crazy bright. When I turn them off and put the regular lights on it seems like their hardly bright enough.
That would be great if we could replace the regular bulbs for original fit led bulbs. I'm sure it will come. I'd rather plow in the dark, music on, all alone with no one around. It don't get any better than that my friend.

Well I did not recognize any of those tunes on the radio you were jamming out too. Must have been before my time AHAHAHHAHA!!!

I see you have what looks like traction tape on top of the loader arms near the cab. Do you climb up on there? And I think I heard an air horn beep a time or two...

Gee I missed your post. Sorry about that!
Ya the machine is really quiet in the cab. No exhaust drone and almost as good as my plow truck was for listening to tunes. I'm really pleased with this tractor.
As for the video. Well I had one camera in the cab and the wife was using a new Sony projection camera with a floating lens in it. We also had a fur looking sock over the optional mic that prevented the wind hiss you normally get out in windy conditions like it was that day.
I did ask the wife not to zoom in because all us tractor guys like to see the snow leaving the blowers chute but she didn't listen lol. The zoom on the camera is really fast as well but to be fair it was the first time she used it and without her help we couldn't have done the outside shots.
