John Deere 6430 plowing snow 2

- Got two big storms one after the other and the banks keep getting closer together. This is not my driveway, it is a town maintained road that my dad plows with a Dodge 5500 with a plow and wing setup. He was out of town during the storm so I plowed it just to open it up. A grader was scheduled to come push the banks back a few days after this was filmed.
I could watch this all day long... this is what my life has come to
Plowing snow and bush hogging are both satisfying jobs to do. You see your accomplishment at the end of the job.
Like something out of a horror movie. "It was a dark and snowy night. A lone tractor pushing snow, only to never be heard or seen again."
Some nights on that road you cant see the end of the hood on the tractor if the wind is blowing, makes you feel pretty alone.
Very relaxing to watch
That tractor is a beast ! Don't feed the trolls, most of them can't operate a shovel lol
I wish critics would post their own plowing videos, it would be interesting.
This might be the best video on RUclips 😋
Excellent Video, tractor moves nicely through this snow
Boy I hate it when the banks get bigger and it feels like the walls are closing in! Good job keeping it open! I'd like to see that 5500!
Yeah this was before I got my wheel loader the banks no longer get that bad anymore. I’ll see what I can do on the Dodge 5500, it belongs to the town, I’ll see if I can get a shot of it during the next storm. I actually had it out a few weeks ago and sanded one of the town roads.
With a heavy snowfall like that, sometimes I will plow the banks back first. So the new snow has someplace to go. Otherwise it just gets too much too push.
Yeah it’s not a road I normaly plow, it’s a town road that my father plows with a Dodge 5500 plow/wing set up. He had shoved it back as far as the truck could get it. He was out of town for that storm so I just went to open it up. A grader was already scheduled to come push the banks back a few days after I filmed this so there was no need to try to shove it back.
You did the rite thing. Get the road open, let the grader do its thing.
Man I'd love to have snow like that to plow, all we get is 3-4 inch crap, just enough to be a nuisance. Nice job, nice tractor to do it with, thanks for sharing !.
Yeah it’s more fun to plow deep snow, I have a new and bigger plow this year but we haven’t had a storm to make it worth taking out yet.
Nice job my friend.....I remember those 2 storms well-we have a long driveway all uphill...very steep, and I plowed with a half ton pickup-it was quite a interesting chore. About 3 foot of snow here in central /northern Maine. It was neat to find that you was here in Maine....I had guessed Montana by the amount of snow in the video! lol surprise!
Yeah it sure piled up in a short time during those two days. Thanks for watching.
I do believe you need a bigger blade or a snow blower on this road.
I have a blower but it is slower and takes a lot more fuel to run.
Really nice job with that John Deere.
Good stuff! I’m hoping for a winter like that this year..
Yeah, I have been waiting for a good storm this year but so far it all been small snow storms with only a few inches followed by rain.
You have a Heck of a driveway
This is a town maintained road that my father plows with a truck, he was out of town so I plowed it just to keep it open. My driveway is short and takes 5 minutes to plow.
@@TB-jj9tu With your nice 6430, I'd enjoy plowing it too!!
Looks fun to me love plowing stuff like this.
That is beautiful and the snow is still dropping. A couple more storms like that and you can switch to plan B . PLAN B = Stay home. I expect you are plowing for a logging operation. Snow is deep in the woods.
That is actually a town road that has a few homes at the end of it. Thanks for watching
Wanna walk on this road...❤❤❤❤❤
Hell of a push. Need a wing. Added. Cut. Banks down. Long ass driveway.
This video was taken a year before I got my wheel loader. Now I do have a wing and plow on the loader.
Animal crossings everywhere! Smoke a little refer and do that lol!
I just got a used snow plow for my 6405. I'll need to make a mounting bracket for it. How is yours mounted ? Any videos on that?
I don’t have any video yet but I was thinking of making a close up of it soon. I am running a Laforge front three point hitch on my tractor so it was really easy to modify the plow frame to fit. There are some pictures on the website that I left the link to.

Il john deere non delude mai l' aspettativa
You Yankees just don't know how to handle snow. Take a cue from someone from South Louisiana. If the weatherman even hints there may be snow in the forecast, shut down your business, rush to the grocery store and buy all the Gumbo fixings, cold cuts, bread and beer you can get. Go home and light a fire in the fireplace, open a beer and turn on Netflix. After several hours of binge watching "The Ranch", get off the couch and make a big pot of chicken and sausage gumbo. Next morning, after no snow has actually fallen, call in sick just to make sure the weatherman wasn't kidding. Go hunting! If snow does actually fall, call all of your Yankee friends and tell them how beautiful and entertaining snow can be while they complain about what a pain in the ass it can be!
LOL I don’t mind plowing snow most of the time, wet heavy snow not so much. As much as I’d love to sit on a sunny beach all winter I’d still miss the snow but not the cold.
Are those deer or moose tracks coming down the banking every so often?
Most likely deer, moose are scarce during winter around here.
That is a narrow road might need a snowblower next time
Yeah that was a good winter, I did get a new plow and wing set up on a wheel loader last year so now snow banks won’t be that bad. Thanks for watching.
Get Er Done !
Holy crap thats alot of snow,, where is that ? I live in PA in the US and wish we got snow like that..
I live in western Maine, thanks for watching
By the amount you're able to push it must've been light powdery snow? Bad cards if it had been heavy, rained on snow! Also, somehow it always looks like you're fighting uphill but you just keep rolling :D
It was right between wet and dry. It rained for the last bit of the snow storm soaking up the top few inches but it plowed ok. Thanks for watching.
Why do you have the plow tilted foreward?
I don’t know what you mean by tilted forward. It is in its normal upright position.
@@TB-jj9tu it looks like the top off the plow is tilted forward/downward
The way this plow is set up the push frame is level with the ground so the plow itself is a n the correct position. The only thing I can think of is that I’m running a snow foil on the top of the blade and that’s what you are seeing.
ruclips.net/video/NsnS97SaLXk/видео.html There is closer look at the snow foil in the beginning of this video.
I think it's just simply the camera angle making it look that way. Nice job!!!
Its made like that to help keep the snow moving to right and away from the plow. Top rolls over a slight bit. U ever watch the waves at a beach. Same principal.
Sides are too high, maybe a front end loader will be better or a blower attachment
Yeah it’s not a road I normally plow. I was plowing it because the regular guy was out of town and a grader was already scheduled to come and wing back the banks. I plowed it just to keep it open during that storm.
Less strain on machine if you angle plow more. As I watch further into the video...you can see why you should have angled it fully to one side.
This road is maintained by the town I plowed this because the town plow operator was out of town. Your telling me that I should have plowed this road with the plow angled. If you noticed that most of the time I’m plowing that my blade is almost as wide as the road it self. If I had plowed with the blade angled I would have been trying to shove almost all that snow from the entire width of the road to one side. Where it fills the blade and spills out over the top of the blade leaving just as much snow behind. Now I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt because this was not in the video but that is how I started plowing this road and switched to a straight blade. It sent half of the snow to each side. As for the stress on the tractor, I have a hydraulic relief valve to protect the blade if there is to much strain on it the blade will hit the relief valve bypass and angle on its own. As for the tractor it takes more strain pulling a field plow through the dirt than this snow plow could come close to. The front hitch has a capacity of 6600 lbs so I think she can handle it.
That tractor is designed to pull 3 boeing 747's at a time. I don't think a wittle snow is going to hurt it. Tard.
Perhaps you have experience on the machine but this man is an internet expert so you should really do what he says.@@TB-jj9tu
wow Where's this at? we have nothing in upstate ny
Maine
Beautiful land and nice rigs! I was just up in Fort Kent earlier this month. What part of Maine are you in? Your daytime videos look a lot like what I saw up there in St John Valley area. Tks for posting.
ok it might seem like a dumb question .... but is that a dirt road ? i think i seen the plow acting like it is on a dirt road loool been there done that !
Yes, you are correct it is a dirt road. There is a big difference between dirt and pavement. Thanks for watching.
@@TB-jj9tu yeah i could tell from the skipping of the blade ! last week i was goin oooh about 30 mile an our on rocks ... well i never seen so much sparks come out of the plow lool
😊
Wow thats a long town rd
U need a bigger machine so you can cut the banks back further.... Hope thats not just your ur driveway,? Lol
This was before I got my 624 loader, check out some of my other videos there are videos of the loader winging back banks. Thanks for watching.
I think you would be better off without the snow foil... Let that snow roll higher.
It's one of those damned if you do and damned if you don't situations. Most of the time the foil works great.
👍😊😊😊👍💖
You're going to need a bigger plow. 🙄
If you buy me one I will give it a try. 🤪
@@TB-jj9tu
Lol. It was a take on the movie "Jaws" when Roy scheider said "you're going to need a bigger boat."
It just seemed like it was a lot of snow for that plow
You almost need a snow blower instead of a plow and blow it into the woods
yeah I got a blower but it is slower and uses way more fuel. this was just to open the road and a grader was scheduled to come push the banks back a day or two after this video was taken.
@@TB-jj9tu you are a great operator was it your second day on the job lol jk
Would have been better with a snow blower on such big amounts / ville vært bedre med snøfres på så store mengder 👍🏻
I have a large snow blower but even though it throws snow further the plow is much fast and has a lower fuel consumption.
needed to be a blower ... this is just giving someone a false sense of security.... TB not having a go at you ..but at the town
yeah I get that a lot. it is 2 miles of road and I can really only snowblow at 1 mph so it would take a long time. At the time this video was taken no one was living on this road so there was no rush to get it plowed. The town truck has a side wing on it but after several big storms the truck just could no longer push the banks back and a motor grader was scheduled to come in and push back the banks a day or two later. I was just opening it up mostly because it was fun to be pushing on a long road rather than short driveways like I’m normally plowing.
Plow is to small for the job.
Mother Nature does not care what you have for a plow, she just dumps snow on the ground and it’s our problem to clean it up. You just do what you have to do to get the job done, this little plow got the job done
Well get your ass over there with a bigger plow.
Well get your ass over there with a bigger plow shithead.
you seem to know alot about snow removal you should come to montreal canada and tell me how to remove snow !!
@Marc vachesus I delete 2 out of 3 comments I get because they are just plain rude and nasty. One guy said it was a good thing he didn’t know where I lived because he would like to kick me in the balls for the way I plow. I never knew something like pushing snow could only be done one way but how many different options are the correct way. It absolutely blows my mind. Good luck up there in Canada I know you guys get hit hard. Thanks for watching.
