Beam Eliminates Snow Ridges

Beam Eliminates Snow Ridges MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Earth Movers Eric Pederson didn’t like the tall ridges left on the sides of his driveway after using his loader bucket to clear snow When the next North Dakota wind came through it would blow the snow back onto his driveway “So I was looking at wings on road graders ” Pederson says and he went on to bolt a wooden 4x4 under the loader bucket The beam extends out from the bucket’s right side about 4 ft at about a 30-degree angle Pederson explains that he first moves snow with just the bucket then adds the 4x4 with three 1/2-in bolts “I was worried it would break easily but I had the wooden 4x4 on hand so I had no input cost and have used it several times without problems ” he says It takes a little time to put on and remove the 4x4 but it’s been worth it to eliminate the ridge of snow Pederson says Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Eric Pederson 6424 119 Ave SE Englevale N D 58033 ph 701-840-2803; eric st1100@gmail com
