JCM 9,967 #7 Posted February 7 It does wear on the shoulder during the bigger New England heavy wet snowstorms. And I know your not a fan of cabs because of your small stature 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I know your not a fan of cabs because of your small stature Also gotta remember.. this plow is TWICE the weight of a regular one! That skidsteer cutting edge is solid. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Easton Rich 453 #9 Posted February 7 I forgot you were 6'1 running a 60" plow. Makes sense why he doesn't want a cab. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I don't fit in a Wheelhorse cab very well at all and visibility is horrible. Warmth would be very very nice. The storm in the video above was 12° with wind blowing as well. It was brisk. It could be up for consideration that I build my own that's a lot wider and taller along with being made out of more clear materials later on but I don't see that happening anytime in the next decade. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Retired Wrencher 5,614 #14 Posted February 7 (edited) Eric looks like you have some snow there. Just wondering why you do you that BIG blower that you and I have for that much snow. Or did you just want to get some seat time in. Any way Nice job. Edited February 7 by Retired Wrencher 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was about 5 inches of pretty dense snow almost like sand. We did actually try to use the Ariens walk behind snow blower but it won't start. I believe we have had that machine 8 years and never changed the spark plug so we will try that this weekend. The C160 & big beast plow did just fine. A little better than I expected to be honest.

Beap52 1,075 #16 Posted February 7 (edited) Too tall of stature--puffff. Eric is scared Trina would hand him a shovel if he had a cab. She'd commandeer the Wheelhorse and he'd never get seat time. Edited February 7 by Beap52 correction 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrc 859 #19 Posted February 8 bercomac makes cabs that are virtually all clear vinyl/plastic on all sides. maybe something could be adapted onto a wheelhorse 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that doesn't solve it I'll likely drop it off at our favorite Small Engine Repair Place. I have no desire to repair modern equipment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
