As thread drift goes, that's microscopic.

Guys, please make your photos smaller so people can easily DLed them.

It was warm here so snow has been sliding off of roofs. Cleaned up the neighbor collage gals parking area. They are away on spring break.

Putting up an owl box to help with rodent control at the farm…

The RTV 900 has been a real work horse and chosen because the hydrostatic transmission coupled with the diesel and low stance provide an extra margin of safety on the inclines… plus no one is going around racing…

Why I like plowing with good visibility. Plow is pushing snow to the right.

Seeded and packed an acre of phacelia this week! The old 2015 runs just like new.

With our snow going, it will be a while before we get out and doing trail work. Old pic.

Here are a few I have done.

The snows all but gone, but the ice is still hanging in!

It gave way leaving the tracks a 10-12" edge to try to climb up from the creek bed. Both ahead and behind. Then even though I was being cautious it threw off the front left track and needed to be lifted out.
Both my forester and I had a good hike out and fortunately it was open enough to get my tractor in to it for the rescue.
I need Arly's style of track, but these happened to come with the machine. They're fine in the snow but much more than a 6" blunt obstacle... those little 8" front and back idlers won't climb over.

Seems your track(s?) was under tensioned or you got idlers with bad bearings. Detracking is not a good day!

I've done it twice, early on in my ownership (not knowing better) and yesterday. Both times were "climbing" over a blunt edge. The tension seemed to be fine and I had no trouble in the snow.
I like the high leading idler wheels on your 6x6 although that design might not be possible for a SxS with the body differences.

You need to get the tension checked. We can Camso pods for years and only detracked once, when bearings had failed.

Ready for a few acres of pre emergent.

Don't usually post f/b links, but couldn't find the picture in my gallery. Here is a screenshot of picture.

If only I could do the same on my hillsides… as it is I find I’m old because I keep tumbling down to the bottom with brush cutter in hand…

I know that dune buggy. That's the honda odyssey. I had one as a kid.

I'd like to keep this thread about atv's and utv's doing work.

 

[J&K]

Couple I have in my photos. Don't have any of My atv plowing snow but have one afterward thaw out in the shop.
