Informative video on the Edge Tamers for snow removal in a gravel driveway. I am very impressed that these allowed the loader bucket to never move any stone during snow cleanup,

Great looking garage you have. Those edge takers look like an interesting idea. Never seen them before.

Thanks for this! I just got a set for my mini-Kubota for my long gravel driveway. I’m glad to see how well they work.

Have had my Edge Tamers for 2 winters and they work great. If your gravel drive has a crown, use 3, with one at the center, one on each side. You will leave some snow behind under your blade, and with multiple small snow storms, you will leave multiple snow layers that will pack down and accumulate. I have used a box blade and a rear blade to carefully scrape that accumulation down without dragging gravel. They also work great when moving dirt piles, sand or mulch deliveries throughout the year, without gouging up your grass, under the pile of dumped material. Moved 30 yds of organic compost that way last spring. Also lets you use your loader to push all those winter branch blowdown pieces scattered around your lawn into piles, without damage to the lawn. So, dont bury the Edge Tamers in the garage after winter is over. Takes only 5 minutes to put on or take off, and have multiple uses. Much easier to do than figuring out how to put back the sod you hadnt planned on scraping up.

Thanks for the honest review… Have about 75-100 yards of gravel driveway here in SD…. Just ordered some for the tractor and glad to see they are not a waste of $$

I have had my edge tamers on my 1025r for going on 3 seasons now and I would recommend them to anyone. I just put my bucket in the float position a clear my driveway with up to 2 feet of snow. They work awesome and I don't have to rake up a lot of gravel off my lawn. They do work

I was going to order a set of the 4" ones this year but they seem to be out of stock. What side of Indy are you? I am about 20 min se of Indy.

The correct and accurate way to use your torque wrench is to place your hand on the knurled part of the handle while tightening. And while I am at it, most manufacturers of torque wrenches suggest you turn the setting of your torque wrench to its lowest value when finished with it.

Rick, thanks for your concern but this is not a critical torque...if I was putting a motor together or working on a blueprinted machine I would most certainly use the torque wrench as expected...and I ALWAYS back it off when storing my torque wrenches.....

My tractor guy has never heard of edge tamers, is this the real name of them? This would be perfect for when I have re-gravelled my driveway. Did they do any damage to the bucket? Thanks for the video.

Edge Tamers are made by R2 Manufacturing. You can Google Edge Tamers and purchase them on line....they are the perfect solution when you have a gravel drive. It was an easy decision for us over a snowblower due to cost and the fact we just don't get snow often enough to justify the huge expense of a blower. Grader blades still bite into the drive and after driving through the snow with the blade behind the tractor, the tires pack the snow....good luck
