Tomorrow's job Kev
Clear our farm track ( a very steep drop to the side ) should be interesting

 

[windymiller]

Much the same here, but no point moving anything till this wind dies down or it'll just be filling back in behind you.

And the trouble is its gone some real hard dens stuff too, I'm walking on top of the drift in fist picture, it's going to take some shifting.

Bowen’s Big loading shovel shift it except they are lethal if it’s slippy

is that a euphimism?

Ours is the same, yesterday the quad was punching through the powdery stuff no bother but today it’s frozen and noughts going anywhere

we started with the jd tractor but because the track is so narrow you couldn’t tip without backing right out the drift and after a few runs it was like a bobsleigh run and a brown trouser job where the road camber leans to the edge, so resorted to the digger, a slower job but safer. Any tips to stop the ditching bucket wedging solid with snow?

Best machine when lanes are filled up is a snow blower

Where to put it all in these narrow lanes is a problem too, snow blower be the boy, but non about here apart from the council, and God knows when they would turn up to do it.


Edit. Beat me to it.^^

Can you turn the bucket around David?
Use her like a face shovel

Yes it will crush the fences and hedges and piling it up in gateways is a nuisance

No idea but I’ll have a look tomorrow

Should be able to but some quick hitches don’t have enough clearance when bucket is turned around.
