  • Grader plowing banks back with little to no music and very little commentary, as requested. Mostly machine sounds and snow rolling in this beautiful environment with awesome views and scenery.

    Machine sound so much better than music. We don't watch for audio of music, that is for sure. Thanks

    I have never seen a You Tube presenter answer every comment.( Even the jerk @jamespetrini comment.) That is as impressive as the wonderful snowplowing because it creates a dialogue between Hutson and his viewers. Absolutely marvelous. Cannot thank you enough. Viewers, please be aware that having operated a straight frame Champion with a Detroit Diesel means that Hutson has been working graders for decades. That alone is to be respected a lot.

      I appreciate your comment. Thank you! I have owned and operated a grader since the early 2000's, however, only considered myself full-time for the last seven. My Champion was pretty old when I got it and was my starter machine for a grader. I have had some experience on G, H, and M-model Cats also. I know I am still learning and willing to try different things to improve results especially when situations evolve and change. Commenting on every comment is a little time-consuming but I think I owe it to those that take their own time to do it. Even those that are negative from those claiming to have knowledge as inspectors, who are inspectors, in some cases, because they lack marketable skills in the industry so they take a job that pays less than if they were really good at something. Having had a successful law enforcement career myself, I don't know how any enforcement official could get code compliance or help anyone improve when they lack the willingness to add any constructive specifics to their negative criticism. Thank you!

    Thats an amazing sound track, really moves the soul, and the snow! :) No restrictions on Deere power The drivetrain whine almost adds a little Detroit music. I had the chance to study and rebuild a 6076T engine, goodness that was fun and big! Didn't want to pay for a reman as sometimes they're not too good for long. This was a reman with a lot of hours and the rebuilder never set the cam gear properly so it had a mile of backlash, out of time and grinding on the front cover.

      It sometimes does sound like a Detroit in the videos. I am glad you like the machine sounds. I have those that like commentary to understand what I am doing and even some like a little music sometimes. I am trying to find the correct balance to satisfy the most viewers. I will keep working on it. I rebuilt a smaller Deere in an old log skidder years ago in my mechanic days and also have experience with 855 CID Cummins and C-15 Cat, fortunately not this one so far. Thanks

    This is a perfect example of having to do something 2-3 times to get it to the best you can. Many passes seems tedious but a blow and some snow will fill it all back in

    • @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk
      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад

      Yes. Earlier in the season I can push it wider as I plow but since I have to get the roads open in a storm as the banks get higher and harder to move I can't take the time and it gets much more difficult and has to happen in between. It is starting to crust up so less risk of blow until we get more and we are getting closer to the end for this season but I have had to plow as late as April 15 here so not out of the woods yet. Thanks.

    I particularly like hearing the equipment sounds, and the periodic comments, or describing of what you are doing. Are the individual residents responsible for clearing out the driveway outlet on to the main road, or do you came back later with smaller equipment and take care of that.
    Yessir, that lake and mountains in the background make for a nice view while snow plowing.
    Thank you sir.

    I noticed you use two different types of tire chains for your front sterring tires and rear drive tires. There must be a significant difference between the two types. Just saw this and subscribed. Thanks for taking the time to make this video and share it.

    • @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk
      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад

      Yes, thank you. They are for different reasons so the difference. This is not an all-wheel-drive so the fronts are for lateral stability particularly on turns so the grader turns better rather than try to just go in more of a straight line. Therefore, the heavier links in the diamond pattern give those more lateral, side to side grip for turning. The rears, obviously are the traction for mainly forward and reverse, so the ladder style in the two-link spacing rather than the four works better for that. It also works well for braking as the wider space cross links always stop with a tire patch on the ground and a chain cross on the front and rear of that patch. With the more frequent cross links there is a chain over that patch and it doesn't happen. The heavy diamond chain on the front would be good for traction also but they are quite a bit more expensive so that plays into it as well. They are all good alloy material that do not where as much as the standard quality I was using. Thanks

    I don’t mind the commentary on what you are planning or why you raise or lower the wing since we don’t know what you are avoiding under the snow

    • @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk
      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад

      That is the balance I am trying to reach as I produce and edit these videos. How much comment versus machine sounds versus music and fast forward. I am trying to satisfy the most people. As far as what I am avoiding there are many things. There are fire hydrants, phone pedestals, power transformers and road signs which are usually marked or I know where they are. I keep the wing raised and "bench" the bank to stay up out of the rocks and other damaging shoulder hazards and because I cannot often move the whole bank in one pass. Thank you and I will continue to try to improve my productions.

    Nice video. subscribed! Does the association tell you when they want the banks benched back or do you do it when you figure its needed? What year is that John Deere? Nice sounding machine

    • @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk
      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад

      I am required by contract to plow the roads beginning as four inches accumulates on the roads and plow them as wide as the road is. Basically, edge/ditch to edge/ditch. With that in mind, and knowing the potential for a lot of snow, I try to push as wide as I can even beyond the edge as other structures and hazards allow early in the season and as the banks build and the road naturally narrows. Then I have to go back and try to make as much room as I can for future snow at varying degrees of difficulty. So I guess it is both. I am contractually obligated to keep the traveled portion plowed, and I wrote the contract, however, I am also free to decide when and how to make that happen. Which is pretty regularly in these heavy snow years. Thanks!

    I was just wondering a couple of things are you an independent person that does this and also how long did it take you to do a complete round I noticed you are running fairly slow😮

    • @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk
      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад +4

      I am a licensed grading and excavation contractor under contract to the homeowner's association to do this work. It takes me about 12 hours in the grader to make a complete round and do the 8 miles of roads and all the lots and cul-de-sacs. The speed at any given time will vary, obviously, on several factors. Some that are particular to this area and the development in how steep and narrow the roads are (doesn't show on camera), the hazards throughout like utilities, driveways and landscaping, and the amount and condition of the snow. There are some rocks that surface in the road and on the shoulders that cause damage if I am not careful. I am trying to get right up to the dirt banks and ditches under the snow that I start cutting into at times because they are not delineated and hard stay away from but get close to and with too much speed I get farther into them before I get stopped or pull away. Finally, the shear size and density due to freezing and thawing of the banks require more power to move and when I hit the hard areas with speed have actually spun the front of my grader into the bank and off the road a time or two. Thank you.

    • @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk
      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад

      This gets commented on a lot. I have one but try not to use it unless I have to. In the course of working a storm I have to plow parking lots, dumpster areas, and cul-de-sacs. A v-plow is not great for carrying snow across wider areas to get it off and pile it and even if a v might work in a particular section at times in that process I would have to go change and then change back and that would slow the process. I mitigate the scenario of needing a V, of allowing snow to drift to the depth that would necessitate a V, by not stopping during the entire wind event, which has been as long as 36 hours. If I keep working those areas by cycling between them and not stopping I can keep the roads at least open. As far as the banks go, my V is tall, but the banks are taller and the snow just slides back in behind the plow. The dirt banks, road edges, and other structures, don't allow me in many cases to lean into the bank and get close enough with a v to get the snow over the top at that point. The wing can move it at a higher level and further away from the grader with it's longer reach to work better for that here as well. Carrying a very tall v due to weight increases tire and front end wear and it is hard to see around for safety purposes. Thanks

      @AnthonyHutson-ej5pk  2 месяца назад

      I would like to know what you think makes me so terrible, constructively, however, is that why you are an inspector because you don't know the first thing about operating and couldn't if you had to. You probably just don't know all the circumstances that I am dealing with here that make you think there is a better way to operate in these conditions. Thanks anyway!
