This is so cool to see Eldon on the channel, in this capacity! I have seen him zipping around on his 4 wheeler for years behind Stan and his team, and even on camera a few times. Stan this is cool to get Eldon on this machine and get his feedback on this machine!
I remember your video last year covering the SR Mag, and it was fun to see you ripping it around then. It's always fun to see you look at things that I've helped work on. I work at Toro and I helped do some of the drafting for this machine, but now I am helping BOSS out again with the VSI acquisition that you toured a little while ago. Keep up the great content!
Cool machine. Definitely saves time and workers back. I remembered seeing my coworkers shelving snow off the sidewalk while I used the plow truck and salting the parking lot . They were tired after 4 hrs of shelving snow. I was the youngest person there but I was the only one that had a commercial driver license and sometimes I was the only one to have a license.
Hey Stan we pick up our new SR Mag Snowrator a fews ago so fare a great improvement over our other 3 snow rator units. Boss killed it this is night Day differnce we love the SR Mag.
I like the fact that you brought in someone who would actually use this piece of equipment heavily and put it through it paces! I can imagine that brush even being great for stuff other than snow
Daaaang, BOSS be Kicking Butt out here. I would think that they would be covered up with orders from cities all over wanting these to keep sidewalks clear. This looks like a fantastic machineThanks Stanley, you always bring us the best gear.
I used the previous iteration of this model last year for Greenscape in Massachusetts. I was a PM but had to step in at times when employees would call out and would have to run this machine. The heat is a nice touch to see in the new model but I remember my hands freezing even with good gloves. My recommendation, treat it like a snowmobile and use a electric handle bar warmer under the grips of the controls for some low cost creature comfort. Some sort of a quick float button would be nice too! Other than that the machine was great to run, lots of power, easy to work on/troubleshoot. The shovel holder and rear broadcast spreader is a nice touch instead of the salt bag carrier.
Definitely a good machine in tight side walks. Company just picked up two ventrac 3400y's with heated cabs, both have blowers and brooms. Definitely will be cadillac's out in our area. Hard to believe some companies still shovel everything by hand. This will help us keep working even in the coldest temperatures.
Don't know if your talking about buffalo by but plenty of guys use them in the city. Pretty rare to find super even sidewalks anywhere unless it's newer areas
I run a bobcat s70 all day and nite in storms. Comfort is a seat and heat and radio 😂 not freezing ur a.s off. Talk to me during those freezing rain and windy days. Besides that for same price bobcat is used year round.
Stan, thanks for all the snow removal videos. Living in East Tennessee we don't get a lot of snow, and when we get a inch or two, everyone goes batcrap crazy. I would live to come up and see some real snow in your area.
@@Dirtmonkey When I was stationed at Ft Bragg, we got like an inch of snow one time, and it shut down the base for day because they lacked snow removal equipment.
Love ours so fare. Broom is great. Need some deeper snow to try out the blower. That said, the original model does really well for a plow only option. If you don’t need the broom or blower, I think it’s a smaller, simpler and more cost effective machine.
What a stocky nimble machine…ain’t always about moving bulk snow. Business need spotless sidewalks, where most slips happen. This unit will pay for itself in a hurry. Watch out for man hole covers they stop you in a hurry.
This machine is great. And only for sidewalks. But, in case that plow folds down with great ease if you hit a man hole. No impact felt like in a truck.
nice compact machine would like to see it go up the slope as well and to offer heat deflection for warmer weather. been looking into these types of machines. would use the plow for grading as well, one of these i believe has a bucket may lift a couple feet but enough to move things around. also like that i don't need a big shed garage open space to store it like a skid steer or tractor nor trailer heavy duty enough to transport. not that i don't have one but not everybody does.
Our older model does well on slopes. The blade tilt angle is not designed for grading and the wheels dig holes on dirt. It would fit in a shed as well.
Nice set up, they definitely did well with engineering. Now, I think that's the slowest we've ever seen Eldon move, lol! Always seemed he was off at 20-25 mph... Wonder how this will compare, hrs wise, to the ATV & UTV? Tho walking thru those frozen slush piles seemed effortless. Thanx !
My biggest problem that's reared it's head on a couple different machines is engine performance during sub zero temps and accessory hydraulics being too cold between customer stops...slow plow angles/chute controls and hard starts on broom/snowblower blowing seals on hi flow pumps. They should take note of their toro connection and the 3 piece chute for better locating. Wondering if their enclosed engine performs better than the toro and ariens options.
I would love to give one of these a try! Been trying to determine the correct machine for an area that is difficult to clear. Issue, no place to put the snow. With a blower, we have to throw it and re throw it at least 3 times, to clear area. Really sucks.
Stanley I have a question on home demolition. I am ready for my first home demolition. I have done all the homework, all the study, I have all the vendors and etc lined up and ready to go with a spread sheet with all my calculations for prices. But I have no idea how to find the jobs. Do I got to a GC or do I go to the home builders and developers directly. How do I get in contact and what information is best to provide for them? What would be your best recommendation for finding jobs
Stan very nice machine no a guy has 4 of them because of manpower shortage can do work of many shovelers is it pricey? It all depends on how much it snow in your area and how many contracts you have it a no brained where you live. Think they should have a brush mower attachment and seeder fert. spreader even a dump attachment that mounts to the front would make it worth while in area where not as many snow events per season
You're such a tease! Start with a big pile of slop then...sixteen minutes later. Hahaha Looks like it scrapes pretty good. Was the surface wet underneath?
I think the only disadvandage to this rig is that it doesn't have a seat.. you're still standing. also less so of an issue.. is that its not able to be used recreationally outside work. Also think it needs an amber waring light some where on it.. either single pole mounted beacon or a couple of amber LEDs on the sides.
That snowblower seems to get bogged down pretty quick. How much does this weigh? It looks like it has great traction. I was surprised at how well the plow did
💥 Aren’t those like $18,000 plus attachments! A sub compact tractor with a snowblower is a better option. I just don’t see the value here. *Keep on tractoring!*
How comfortable was it to operate on a grade. I know it looked to have decent traction, but did Eldon feel like it was top heavy or otherwise unstable?
I’ve taken a test drive, very stabil. Much more comfortable with the dampened controls. Old raider bounced you around, took a bit to get used to it. The MAG is much improved. specially on the hills
The new version is supposed to be faster than the old one. Better motor, more fuel longer runtime, more hydraulic attachment options. Same front spreader and controls.
Air intake into the engine with salt dust would be a concern, Also lo grade stainless is magnetic. Corrosion of the aluminum hydro components , pumps coolers would be a concern.
That's an awesome machine! Way better than an atv! Speaking of new equipment, I've been trying to find the name of a finance company that sponsored one of your trade show videos. Please help!

Much appreciated 👍
I love that you had Eldon come with his experience. It shows you care and want to have a professional in the field review it! Stand up move Stanley!
It was a no brainer 👌

Im excited to see your videos for the storms we had yesterday and today.
Yessir they’re coming 👊 it’s been pretty nuts
Hey Stan we pick up our new SR Mag Snowrator a fews ago so fare a great improvement over our other 3 snow rator units. Boss killed it this is night Day differnce we love the SR Mag.
Sweetness glad you like it 👊
That engine vent is such a genius idea. Little things like can make difference in operator comfortability.
Can’t argue there
I love how Boss said that you either go to a Boss or Toro dealership for engine repairs. I also loved how they explained the machine in detail.
Agreed 👊
I like the fact that you brought in someone who would actually use this piece of equipment heavily and put it through it paces! I can imagine that brush even being great for stuff other than snow
These snow rators are badass little machines! Hope you are well Stan!

Cool beans thanks for the tips man! Excited for this one
Eldon’s stamp is huge.
4 wheeler man. You show him occasionally.
Definitely a good machine in tight side walks. Company just picked up two ventrac 3400y's with heated cabs, both have blowers and brooms. Definitely will be cadillac's out in our area. Hard to believe some companies still shovel everything by hand. This will help us keep working even in the coldest temperatures.
next time could you take it over some slightly uneven sidewalks. here in buffalo not too many sidewalks are smooth. thanks love the videos
Don't know if your talking about buffalo by but plenty of guys use them in the city. Pretty rare to find super even sidewalks anywhere unless it's newer areas
The cup holder cracks me up! LOL
Supercool toy, God Bless y'all. John V. Marion Springs, Mi.
Awesome man! Thanks for bein here
That thing is handy, looks well built!!
Seems to be 😊
I run a bobcat s70 all day and nite in storms. Comfort is a seat and heat and radio 😂 not freezing ur a.s off. Talk to me during those freezing rain and windy days. Besides that for same price bobcat is used year round.
I agree I bought a s70 2 years ago and I can use 365
Or just dress in layers
I get to run a bobcat 550 it’s an awesome machine
Thanks Stan. Have a blessed day
Thanks man and right back atcha
That thing looks like the ultimate sidewalk rig!! ❄️
💯
Cab Kubota UTV with a v plow is the bomb jiggitty for sidewalks.
Nice, great video again. Thanks
Live in FL so no snow, but that broom for cleanup would be sick as heck compared to the handheld units hat are battery 👍🏻👍🏻
This thing is AWESOME
Stan, thanks for all the snow removal videos. Living in East Tennessee we don't get a lot of snow, and when we get a inch or two, everyone goes batcrap crazy. I would live to come up and see some real snow in your area.
That’s hard to even imagine lol
@@Dirtmonkey When I was stationed at Ft Bragg, we got like an inch of snow one time, and it shut down the base for day because they lacked snow removal equipment.
What a nice little machine!
Sure is 👊
The current snow storm would be perfect to test this out!
You know itt
Nice one Stan. 👍👍🏴🏴
Love ours so fare. Broom is great. Need some deeper snow to try out the blower.
That said, the original model does really well for a plow only option. If you don’t need the broom or blower, I think it’s a smaller, simpler and more cost effective machine.
Loved the video, Thank you !
Very cool. Looks a lot like the Ariens Mammoth.
Wow that machine is awesome!!!
😎👍
Impressive little machine!
That is an awesome machine for doing sidewalks. He seems.very happy Stan
Hey Stan, you should do a comparison between the Ariens and the boss.
Love the videos!!
That is a great setup for sidewalk
Love the videos
Appreciate ya 👊
That thing is a beast!!
Yessir 👊👊
Great video, now wondering if the BOSS Snowrator or the Ariens Mammoth is the better ride-on snow option...
I don't even need one but I want one, very cool.
Lol I know the feeling too well
Love watching your videos with all the cool stuff out there
Broom broom plow 😂
What a stocky nimble machine…ain’t always about moving bulk snow. Business need spotless sidewalks, where most slips happen. This unit will pay for itself in a hurry. Watch out for man hole covers they stop you in a hurry.
This machine is great. And only for sidewalks. But, in case that plow folds down with great ease if you hit a man hole. No impact felt like in a truck.
You said it 👊👊
That V-blade was a joke! Thanks for the laughs
😂 you should see the arens
I think I would put studs in those tires. I put studded tires on my plow truck, and it was a game changer for me.
great video
Glad you liked it!

Our older model does well on slopes. The blade tilt angle is not designed for grading and the wheels dig holes on dirt. It would fit in a shed as well.
Do they make an enclosed canopy/wind screen for the operator when using the snowblower or brush?
I want one, very Nice.
They've thought of everything. Even where to direct the excess heat!! It's definitely worth the money!
They chose not to fix the salter controls so that you can feel them better through your gloves…
Nice set up, they definitely did well with engineering. Now, I think that's the slowest we've ever seen Eldon move, lol! Always seemed he was off at 20-25 mph... Wonder how this will compare, hrs wise, to the ATV & UTV? Tho walking thru those frozen slush piles seemed effortless. Thanx !
I’d rather have a faster machine for the long sidewalks and a maneuverable machine for detail work.
that thing is awesome, i wish we could afford one.

Feel for ya. That doesn’t sound very fun

very nice
What about lighting?
Both to warn motorists and so you can see working at night?
What about putting the boss sno-rator vs the Toro multiforce head to head
I like your thinking 😈👊
I would have like to See some Lights ( rear & Side Flashing and a Front Lights )
Good idea 👌
How does it compare to the Grandstand Multiforce?
Love to see it work a storm below 10 degrees
It definitely gets that cold up here sometimes so we’ll see 😈
Bundle up brother!
Absolutely, the toro and ariens have issues running in those temps.
Wonder hoe the tires will look after 1 winter and 1 summer 🤔
Does it have blade extensions
Does this machine with snow thrower perform on gravel without jamming up or shearing bolts ?
Do they make a chain kit for the tires?
Nice machine. I don't see how make enough money in winter on snow. Thought about adding it as another business
Hopefully your plowing snow right now. 12 inches of snow hitting you guys down south, we have had enough Colorado lows this winter.
How does this compare to the ariens mammoth 850?
Do you think they will release the 4’2” v plow from the mag? All I want is the v plow
Very nice. SO glad I do NOT need it!!!! Enjoy🥶
Soak up that sun for me!!
If I buy one of these and it breaks, am I allowed to buy parts from the manufacturer and repair it myself? Or are they going to John Deere us?
I was wondering about the weight of it and traction
What kind of tires are you running on your trucks?
I will be looking at this next week at are landscape ontario show
All u are missing now is some strobe lights and it’s probably the best snow machine I’ve seen
Might as well get some subwoofers too haha
Give it full rabbit!
Answer me this.
Will it go up a into an 8 fit box using the standard flip ramp we all use to get our walker mowers into the bed of a truck
Yes. Very carefully and at your own risk duh
Stan very nice machine no a guy has 4 of them because of manpower shortage can do work of many shovelers is it pricey? It all depends on how much it snow in your area and how many contracts you have it a no brained where you live. Think they should have a brush mower attachment and seeder fert. spreader even a dump attachment that mounts to the front would make it worth while in area where not as many snow events per season
Hey Stanley, let’s see those birds
You're such a tease! Start with a big pile of slop then...sixteen minutes later. Hahaha
Looks like it scrapes pretty good. Was the surface wet underneath?
I think the only disadvandage to this rig is that it doesn't have a seat.. you're still standing. also less so of an issue.. is that its not able to be used recreationally outside work. Also think it needs an amber waring light some where on it.. either single pole mounted beacon or a couple of amber LEDs on the sides.
Good calls 👍 I kind of like standing too though
The maneuverability, compact size, ability to step on and off for entrance door clearing is really nice.
That brush for sand cleanup in the spring
They need a mower deck for the front
here to help
👊👊👊
That snowblower seems to get bogged down pretty quick. How much does this weigh? It looks like it has great traction. I was surprised at how well the plow did
That’s because it’s a gas engine & don’t have torque like a diesel. My diesel Kubota BX is a monster with the snowblower!
And it rides up over the pack rather than truly scraping.
How about a front mower, bucket, forks, ect. Thanks
💥 Aren’t those like $18,000 plus attachments! A sub compact tractor with a snowblower is a better option. I just don’t see the value here.
*Keep on tractoring!*
Any word on if/when the SR Mag will have brine tank option?
Seems logical with there recent brine company acquisition… no?
When can we expect a video of the new truck plowing snow?
On it 👊
Wish I had that blower in my neighborhood these last two days. Over two feet came down.
Sounds like you might need one. We just got an absolute ton of snow up here too
Let’s see a comparison video with the ventrac SSV!
WHAT !!
NO LINK !!
C’MON MAN
How comfortable was it to operate on a grade. I know it looked to have decent traction, but did Eldon feel like it was top heavy or otherwise unstable?
The old model feels very stable. We put ours through a lot. It’s for sale here in MI. We would like the new model.
I’ve taken a test drive, very stabil. Much more comfortable with the dampened controls. Old raider bounced you around, took a bit to get used to it. The MAG is much improved. specially on the hills
Looks pretty tough. Can a guy put chains on it? I would have liked to see the broom and Blower in deep snow.
I wouldn’t trade my bobcat L28 for anything. Nothing like cleaning sidewalks in a T-shirt
Company I work for has boss sno-rator. What’s the major difference here? Other than some minor visuals.
The new version is supposed to be faster than the old one. Better motor, more fuel longer runtime, more hydraulic attachment options. Same front spreader and controls.
It's amazing that guy doesn't have gloves on. Being Minnesota it has to be freezing.
👍
Air intake into the engine with salt dust would be a concern, Also lo grade stainless is magnetic. Corrosion of the aluminum hydro components , pumps coolers would be a concern.
That's an awesome machine! Way better than an atv!
Speaking of new equipment, I've been trying to find the name of a finance company that sponsored one of your trade show videos. Please help!
It's Rogue Financial from the GIE 2021 video.
T & A Brother.
what about a brine tank
20,000???
