  • First year plowing with the Metalpless 8-13 live edge snow plow operated with a Cat257d. We are about 6 or so storms into the season so I've had some time to get the feel for the plow. I'll give you my opinion on its efficentcy and it's overall functionality. Hope you enjoy! comment any questions or thoughts, hit the like button and please subscribe!!

    I bought a 6-11 on my tractor, and a 7-12 for track loader. I'm pissed I didnt go 8-13 with live edge. Also pissed because the wings don't trip back and only fold up on mine. I saw an 8-13 with live edge yesterday and lots of improvements over mine!

    Nice plow setup, ive never ran one with a chain but I think it would be better for pushing up piles vs the boss plow

      I’ve run v-xt and d-xt plows side by side with mvp3’s for years now. I have my pros and cons of both for sure. You can’t go wrong either way in my opinion.

    i didn't catch if you mentioned, do you work by yourself? edit : k you mentioned you work alone. i have 2 pieces of equipment like you. how do you figure out when you're wasting the potential of having both machines running at the same time? while i dread the thought of having to worry about anyone but myself, i think im leaving a lot of money on the table only using 1 or the other. debating trying to add some accounts and maybe an employee next year.

    Nice setup! Do you like it? I have the BIG Maxxpro for my Loader, was thinking of getting that same MP blade you have for my CAT 242D skid steer.

      It’s an amazing set up. Idk if I’d want to go any heavier for my 257d. I’m not sure what the 242d capacity is but I’m sure it would work fine. You can also do everything from the joy sticks of the skid loader which is way nicer then the 3 way switch on the loaders. Thanks for watching!

      @@maxxex3451 Yes I would agree on the switch thing. The loader was a pain to hook up and it is also not mounted in a good spot.

    Those tailings it leaves where the wings meet the blade would drive me crazy. It always allow snow through there?

    MN boy?? im thinking that 8/13 with 262d next winter. have you pushed over 6" storm? looking good so far man!

    • @maxxex3451
      @maxxex3451  4 роки тому +2

      I am from MN. That would be a awesome set up. Put some big ole tires on it and you could fly... I have pushed a 9” with open ups of course. If I have good traction no problem.

    Do you charge by the hour or per inch? Or per snowfall?

    Hey man just purchased one of these... 279d3 2020. Is there anything special to getting the wings to work. My mechanic had no luck the first time

    • @maxxex3451
      @maxxex3451  3 роки тому +2

      EVERGREEN LAWN & DESIGN LLC to move the wings(if it’s hooked up properly) you need to hold the top right or bottom right button on the left joy stick at the same time as you move the roller ball. Each button is a wing. If you already know that then I’d make sure the 14pin is plugged in to the plow properly. You should see a red light when you hold one of the two buttons
