Watch me work from my POV as I plow some of the sidewalks, driveways and a commercial parking lot I service with my 1997 Polaris Sportsman 500 and Warn ProVantage 54" Long Arm snow plow.
The ATV snowplow is perfect for my needs, since my area averages about 2-3 snowfalls a season. I also like how nimble it is especially since one of my clients has only sidewalks and walkways needing to be cleared.

I’ve got some advice for you, you are doing a fantastic job but when you come up to the snow back start to raise your plow so it will ramp it, so when you don’t ramp it the snow back will freeze rock solid then you can pile the other snow from other snowfalls on it

Fun fact: Polaris says that all their Sportsman ATV's from the 450 all the way up to the 1000 will plow the same amount of snow. Once the ATV size reaches the 450 it's not loner about how much power the ATV has, it's a matter of traction, and their testing showed that on cold freshly plowed pavement, the 450 - 1000 all have almost identical traction amounts.

Very interesting! So by that logic mine should theoretically be able to push as much snow as a 1000. I may have to test that out! I always thought it was odd that atvs now come with engines up to 1000. When mine was produced, im pretty sure 500 was the biggest there was.

Very well made and informative video. Greetings from a fellow Polaris Sportman 500-owner in Norway.

Four wheelers are nice for plowing I got a 1996 Polaris sportsman 500 that I do sidewalks with and some driveways too

@DowneastProductions211 Год назад

Hey what kind of salt do you use I’ve learned that if you use pet safe salt it works out for the home owner cuz it gets rid of the salt but also if a person with a dog walks by it won’t hurt the dogs feet

Road Runner calcium/magnesium

Did you ever figure out a way to adjust the plow without getting off of the ATV? I plow residential driveways over in Midlothian va and have been trying to figure out how to do it for a few years now. Trying to figure something out for this year.

@grahamlorsung88 2 года назад

Use a linear actuator to move plow side to side just be sure to attach it to a pivot point that still allows the blade to trip otherwise you will wreck the actuator

@HMartinFilms 2 года назад

Thanks for the input. Im probably either going to go that route or fashion some sort of cable actuated setup that uses foot pedals to angle each way.

@grahamlorsung88 2 года назад

@@HMartinFilms interesting idea I’d like to see a foot peddle system that would be cool. I already have too many hand controls.

@aaronwitner2001 Год назад

You can buy a boss plow and that’s hydraulically moves and makes it two different directions it’s a V plow and especially made for all models of ATVs

@geraldrowe6001 Год назад

Hi nice video...what kinda plow setup do you have on your atv

@dunklechuck1188 Год назад

Got Rubicon 500 w 50 in plow. Works very well. Moving a foot np either

@travismiller4993 Год назад

What’s the best way to find customers I own A lawn care and landscaping business and I recently got a Honda rancher with a plow on it and plan on doing snow removal

@1bad335i 6 месяцев назад

Hey how big is your plow

@2strokers__jdc757 2 года назад

Sweet set up my guy. If you don’t mind me asking how much do you charge for private homes ?

@HMartinFilms 2 года назад

Thanks! The pricing ranges based on a number of things. Obviously the size of the area cleared is a big factor but also whether or not they want walkway clearing and/or ice treatment and how big those areas are. And then I have different pricing tiers for 2-6”, 6-12”, and 12+”. I might make a video breaking all this down but all this is to say it ranges and varies by snowfall from 55 for the smallest to 150 on an average snow event.

@bradenkuhn9423 2 года назад

I was wondering how much you charge? I am thinking about snowplowing for some extra cash and wondered about pricing

@HMartinFilms 2 года назад

It depends on the size of the area being cleared and what services the owner requests, mine range from 60-225

@eriknielsen2578 Год назад

I have been clearing snow for 16 years around several properties here in Denmark, but have never used an ATV to do the tasks, but I consider it a lot. I was almost certain that an ATV couldn't push much snow, but have now watched many videos and it seems to work

@dunklechuck1188 Год назад

Pushes snow easily

@connorm1600 2 года назад

Cool music! Would that plow be suitable for extended use on gravel?

@HMartinFilms 2 года назад

Thanks! As long as the ground is frozen and the shoes are adjusted properly it would probably be fine

@timberray9572 2 года назад

Any plow will work good on gravel with this simple mod. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GFYjN6OLkLc.html

@gmackster007 Год назад

Great video. Just wish you could slow it down. It’s moving so fast.

@chevyguy-hf1yq Год назад

You mean 0- 2 inches..... We measure in feet up here.

@TScott-ek5nq Год назад

Just pushing the snow to the side isn’t going to help you next time it snows.

@Northnyboy95 2 года назад

With that little snow I don’t see the point in plowing it… come to upstate ny where you’ll wake up to 5 feet

@HMartinFilms 2 года назад

Got it

@TayNez63 2 года назад

I'd rather plow, more fun than shoveling. Plus this is wet snow. But yeah upstate NY is no joke

@justinqualls4964 Год назад

It's not the 5ft drift that'll hurt you but that 3 inch drizzle that half melted and refroze the next night just might cause a spill that will crack your melon wide open
