We have actually three plows one on the side by side and two on the four wheelers and we put wings on last year I'm telling you with the way your garage is set up with the rock wall on each side and you'll thank me. You'll be able to grab so much more and still use the angle

@JohnFrancoNH 2 жыл бұрын

I like that idea, being able to scoop snow. How do they hold up to abuse when the plow is angled doing windrow passes and hitting hardened snow from previous snowfall?

@codyschmidtmann3992 2 жыл бұрын

Actually quite well mine are welded on and instead of just bolted but I'm sure if you're tabs where the bolts go through are strong enough it would be fine also. Usually my first pass of the season I try to widen it as much as I can knowing that more snow is coming but every once a while when things start to get icy in the banks I will spend a little longer time going through the driveway sideways pushing the banks back again and just raising the plows as we're going through the banks. It takes a little longer spending the extra time pushing the banks back but what else do we have to do during a snowstorm. We own a very large piece of property in the driveways over 700 ft. Plus the parking area. Used to do it all with the truck but as my kids grown up they like to come out and help and they all have their own machines so we just bought more plows. You could just make them out of flat stock steel and weld them on or I do know they make them for them The first time I ever did it I used three quarter inch plywood and that lasted for almost 3 years. I was very surprised to see how long it lasted. The best of luck Happy New Year

I have the 60" on my 570. I was told by the dealer that I might not be able to push snow with a 66". The 570 pushes snow with the 60 incher with such ease that I feel certain that it would push the 66er without a problem. If I wasn't able to, it would spin the wheels. Traction is the limiting factor, and chains would be the solution, if that ever comes to be the problem.

how deep of snow have you plowed with it? I live in New England so we can get some deep ones.

@canamrider7195 4 жыл бұрын

@@parentaladvisory66 This was a light year for snow fall. In years past I would plow with my John Deere LA130. Deepest I have ever had to plow was 6 inches, and sometimes more then 3 times a day. This 570 will handle a lot more, a lot faster, and with fewer daily plows. It remains to be seen just how deep it will plow, or how wet and heavy the snow can get. I'll keep at it when it get to 6 inches, unless it is midnight. I hated plowing late in the night.

Yes, the PRO model poly blade is very thick, lighter weight and corrosion resistant. Making it more durable then steel. And its the widest out of all the offered plows from polaris for use on an atv. If you plan on leaving it outside definitely the poly. Steel will rust and you will be buying another plow. Thanks for watching!
