As a kid my dad plowed the roads for our township. A large Oshkosh, smaller FWD and a Caterpillar #12 grader. The grader had the front blade and V plow and wing. Normally only use the grader blade for scraping ice and the wing. The Oshkosh did the real work, he would keep the blade about 3 inches off the ground so when it hit bit snow it would push down for added traction on the front. I can still recall riding with him and the exhaust pipe coming out through the hood and it glowing cherry red in the night because it was working that hard. Steve…
Just found this channel. Cant believe im watching someone else run grader! Lol. I run a 160 up here in Saskatchewan. I like to plow slow at night when i can
This looks like you're in the hills near Veblen, SD. Legend has it, he is still trying to open the pass to this day. :P Thank you for sharing your work.
Spring snow storms in northwest colorado. Dealing with the exact same thing on April 5th. minus a sweet looking gravel road. Got no gravel, , mud and two foot ruts to navigate before I ever get to the drift. Was ten degrees this morning so not too much mud. Chains dig holes. so i make some pack to drive on with chains. This is my rookie year of plowing snow in a grader so most other winters will be piece of cake. This "rookie" has learned a lot watching Graderman's videos. Thanks! Ed Schwartz. ( Becky's husband)
I would love this job. You’re out by yourself making the roads nice. The only problem is I can’t take a $10hr pay cut from the grading company I work for.
We get that alot of that up north here. Or even at the end of season when we open machinery roads. (Roads that have been closed all winter).. awsome video, thank you.
Ran into a similar situation a few years ago. After hitting the drift with the V-plow I would back drag the loose snow out of the hole and dump it off the shoulder. Maybe try tipping your wheels towards the bank to keep the front end from getting pushed over. Use that wing to knock that wall down so you have room for more snow.
Thought I had it bad ! In California, where I hailed from, worked for a Central Valley municipality. Hardest projects were planing 2 to 1 detention pond slopes, working the top down to nearly 30’ in some cases, spilled a few cups of coffee at that angle! During leaf pickup season, farmers let us dump our vac trucks and chip trucks on their fields for turning in to the soil as compost. Grading leaves and wood chips took a little patience, they don’t roll out like gravel or snow! Great to watch your game plan play out, sorry you couldn’t punch it, gotta save the machine for the other areas of the township, right? Good job, man!
I bet the 2to 1 slopes were a challenge to do and I can about imagine ya spilled a few cups lol and I bet that would be some hard material to grade and yes I had other roads to get to so decided to give up on that spot and let the loader get it open glad ya enjoyed the video thanks for watching
I was worried about the same thing here, they forecasted 22” and 45 mph winds. We ended up with around 12” and the wind wasn’t more the 15-20 mph. We had some spots with 3’ drifts, it was fun plowing. I had four dozers placed at farmers yards plugged in ready to go around the townships in case we got into trouble. Great video!!!
We had some tough roads didn’t need dozers thank goodness only had to have a loader dig through this spot otherwise got everything opened with the blade been pushing stuff back now probably bring snow blower in a few spots and get them blown out generally match is our snowiest month so definitely want to have room for more glad ya liked the video thanks for watching!
Unfortunately what the video doesn’t show is the 20% grade I’m trying to go up that’s why I’m backing up as far as I am to try and get as much momentum to bust through the drift thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Good explanation. Now I feel dumb making the comment. Good reminder to stay entertained and keep negative comments to myself. Thanks for posting. It is entertaining to watch.@@graderman140m
Hey that looks like fun. Ran mostly 16’s at the coal mine. No Vplows or wings. Mostly a 24M at the end. You had to be careful with it as the front wheels were along ways forward. Good jod
It’s fun for the first couple hours then gets tough on the body when your slamming in to drifts like this I’ve always wanted to get a chance at running a 24 be a fun machine to operate.
Little trick I use is keep my v up a ways and articulate all the way and set my front tire out on the berm. I run 6 trigg chains on an awd 140. new 160 be here next year
This is same western canada same with cn cp railroad huge bank snow.you should get big snowblower like kodiak or sicard with huge bank lots faster.thanks video😊
I wish I had the budget to be able to have a big blower so I do what I can with the blade I did have a local farmer come over with his pay loader and push it open for me. Tanks for watching!
It's really bad out there keep up the good work in the fall do they put up some snow fences that way you don't have to drift that's what we used to do out Colorado be safe 🚜🇺🇸
We don’t put up any snow fence we do go out in a lot of fields and made ridges to hold snow in the fields vs on the road the spots I did the ridging has really paid off
Now that this drift is open and being as deep as it is you will need a dozer to open it up and push iit back PLUS you will have to ridge both sides of the roadway where you can !
With my v plow and wing I’m close to 50,000 pounds so got a fair amount of weight it’s amazing what this machine will go through but it obviously has its limits glad ya liked the video thanks for watching!
Here is a link to the website to where I get my carbide blades give them a call and they will get you set up and no big deal I’ve been looking at what I need for the spring and summer grading season also tell them I sent ya thanks for watching equipmentblades.com/collections/carbide-curved-grader-blades/products/cijt874845-aci-1
Keept it down there.. lol. Knock on wood, I've been very lucky this year, but our storm usually hits in March. The last 2 years I've had the awd, and that sure helps alot. Sucks when the snow falls behind the blade. I can tell how steep that hill is by the sound of your engine. Doesn't quite show on video. Our municipality only has a small snowblower on a tractor and a small loader, but if I can't get through something, we call out the the locals with bull dozens, push it all back to the feilds.. alot of people don't see what goes into opening a road after a good storm.. thanks for the content..
Graderman, how do you like the visibility of this Caterpillar angled cab design for running V plow? We are considering buying a new Cat 150, but are not sure about looking through those two cab posts and tiny front window to see straight ahead.
I absolutely love it there’s no better grader on the market for visibility out of the cab once you get used to it the tiny front window goes away having the big glass doors you can see really good plus with small front wind the sun doesn’t bother you as bad as a big front window.
@@user-rz7sp5rk1y I operate a Deere 772gp also and visibly isn’t very good compared to the cat machine I’d highly recommend you try both machines out and go from there I can also tell you the cat blows the Deere out of the water on horse power and luging power.
Well id have to disagree with you there when you still have other roads to open up you can only spend so much time before moving on the residents on this road we’re on either side of this drift so wasn’t a necessity to get open that’s why I left it.
TIp, run the nose plow on the gravel and shake some of or any snow sticking to the plow so that the plow is clean before you hit the drift ! ( from Canada )
setting yourself up for problems...i always would widen the cut as i went...get up speed and lean wheels and hit the drifts to give yourself so room instead of a slot that can trap you
Would have been beneficial to have a wheel loader with a snowblower there 😁 But I guess it's not a common occurrence so it's use what you have at your disposal deal 🙂
You got that right a snowblower on a loader would of been very handy but unfortunately don’t have access to one so had to make do with what equipment I got thanks for watching.
What the camera doesn’t show very good is the 20% grade I’m going up so even when I backed up as far as I did I was loosing to much momentum going to the steep grade but I’d much rather go uphill least you can always back out thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
I agree but unfortunately the township only has the grader for snow removal so I tried to get road open with the equipment I had available I was able to have a local farmer to come over with his pay loader and get it open for us thanks for the comment and thanks for watching
The video does a very poor job showing how steep of a hill I’m going up so I back up that far to get as much momentum as I can going in to the drift so I’m not purposely slowing down unit I’m in the drift once I’m in the drift I left off because I don’t want to spin my tires creating ice underneath me hope this explains why I was doing that thanks for the question and thanks for watching.
Why do you keep letting off the throttle before and during hitting the drift? I grew up near Rugby ND and have plowed and watched the roads being plowed and you dont tiptoe into big drifts like that you go as fast as it will go and keep on the throttle unless you like being in one spot most of the day. You act like it is your new 4x4 pickup and dont want to get it dirty.
Once I’m in the drift I let up one the throttle cause I don’t want to spin my tires creating ice and believe me it might not show in video but I’m going up a very steep hill hitting it in 6th gear and it was bringing me to a dead stop also I had already broke my v plow earlier in the day so was taking it a little easier then normal thanks for watching.
There’s always somebody that knows better sitting at home on his phone watching a video rather than the guy right there in the machine at that moment in time and in those certain conditions.
@@jeffmacdonald9386if he had actually plowed as he claims , he wouldn't have to ask the question.. you ease off to avoid burying yourself and spinning the wheels. Keyboard cowboy in his mom's basement no doubt
Beginner's mistake...Even if your scraper is flat, on the first stroke, the snow was no higher than your scraper. You should have let your scraper high enough to remove the first 2-3 feets. By removing the top layer, you could have advanced, lower your scraper and move backwards with the snow. Push the snow to the side and repeat until you pass, playing with the wing to widen the passage.
On a grader we only have a v plow on the front of the machine to get through heavy snow that deeper then 4ft we use a directional plow and the moldboard and wing for the lighter snow hope that explains it a little bit thanks for watching!
I was wondering how much time you were going to spend there. If you can't see the other end of the drift why waste time ramming a machine into it? I don't know who is in charge up there but in that state there should be a snow blower somewhere that would cut through that drift, even a high flow skid steer snow blower would. Somebody up there needs to get on the ball and get stuff in order there.
Well unfortunately the township only has the grader to do all the snow removal with so I do what I can your absolutely right can only spend so much time before you move on we’re very fortunate that a few farmers in the township have a pay loader or a big blower on a tractor so we reach out to them if I can’t get a road open like this spot thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
I was wondering how the plow is attached. Because if it was me and the mount was proper I'd hit it a little harder than that. I know equipment and you don't want to break anything but 5 to 8 mph faster and you would gain more than a couple inches. And before you go shaking your head I'm not in the habit of breaking things and I been at it long time. I've owned my own company since 72 and know steel. But a warm cab paid by the hour so why hit it like I should. My Dad was like that till I showed him the right way to do it. He just said okay that's good. Drilling for 60 years and hold the record for most footage in a said period. So when you can do that and get double the footage on the bits that anybody else is getting that means you know what your doing. I'm well known and buddy you wouldn't be slack assing like that very long working for me. Chow.
Why does he back up so far ever time? you can see he gets up to speed Then let's off and goes in at a coast but. But he's at the coasting speed long before he hits. Seems like wasted motion for the machine.
The video does a poor job showing how steep of a hill I’m trying to go up I back up that far to get as much momentum I can I left off soon as I hit the drift because I do not want to spin my tires creating ice underneath me hope this explains your questions.
When you don't use the proper equipment to do the job, you'll never complete it. It's like moving a ton of bricks with a teaspoon. Typical example of government wasting money. I'm sure you have a front-end loader or a snow blower that would be much more efficient and less costly. You admitted yourself that what you are doing is not good for the equipment, yet you continue doing it. You need to remove the snow. All you are doing is pushing it.
Well I’m using the only pice of equipment the township has so I’m doing the best I can with the equipment I have we don’t have a loader or a snow blower so I tried to get the road open with the grader decided to quit luckily we have farmers who have pay loaders who will help us out when we need it thanks for watching.
@@graderman140m you did mention is the video that you should get the blower out there, so I had assumed you had a snow blower. You also mentioned that it was not good for the equipment to be treated the way you were treating it.
@@jackcoberly2705 I did say that in the video on the snow blower we have a couple of farmers who have blowers on there tractors we will hire to help us out in bad spots and yes when i was saying it is hard on the grader trying to get through a drift of that size but I tried and didn’t break anything in the process so I did everything I could with the equipment I had now if we had a big budget I would have a pay loader with a big blower on it but unfortunately we don’t have the budget for it so I have to make do with the equipment I have hope that explains it a little more thanks for watching

Thanks for a great video! I like how you used the wing plow to push back the wall on the right when it got really deep in the drift.
I plow in North Dakota and it’s been a long and Miserable winter up here too. Ready for spring haha
I've been learning to run a grader to plow snow with an old austinwestern with a streight front blade and a swapped 466

Слишком длинный разгон, все равно скорость уже не увеличивается, тем более газ сбрасывается. Эффективнее врезаться в снег, приподнимая отвал.
i was hoping you would call for a wheel loader 30 minutes ago.
Then he would already be on the way
What county are ya in?
I’m in minnehaha county.
I would say that you need to have wing extension for the v-plow that would help push the snow up and over better 😂😂

Well I’m using the only pice of equipment the township has so I’m doing the best I can with the equipment I have we don’t have a loader or a snow blower so I tried to get the road open with the grader decided to quit luckily we have farmers who have pay loaders who will help us out when we need it thanks for watching.
@@graderman140m you did mention is the video that you should get the blower out there, so I had assumed you had a snow blower. You also mentioned that it was not good for the equipment to be treated the way you were treating it.
@@jackcoberly2705 I did say that in the video on the snow blower we have a couple of farmers who have blowers on there tractors we will hire to help us out in bad spots and yes when i was saying it is hard on the grader trying to get through a drift of that size but I tried and didn’t break anything in the process so I did everything I could with the equipment I had now if we had a big budget I would have a pay loader with a big blower on it but unfortunately we don’t have the budget for it so I have to make do with the equipment I have hope that explains it a little more thanks for watching
