all the ten wheelers and six wheelers run a hyd pump off the motor , like the sander all you do it plug three hoses into fitting on the back of the truck and turn it on , ill take a closer pic .....i'll try and get a few pics of everything getting mounted some time , its pretty neat to see we can get all the trucks (something around 30 ) from one tons to ten wheelers mounted in around 6 to 7 hrs with just 6 guys........ we got a little over a foot of snow this weekend which isnt the end of the world but the news hypes it up like it is at times

So does the pump run off from the fan belt like the old fisher plows used to? Does it use the hydraulics from the dump box res?

um im gonna have to take some pics of the way its set up....on the newer trucks (like the one i drive) its kinda like the way the old ford backhoes are with the pump mounted behind the bumper with a shaft going to the crank pulley with an electric clutch , the older truck have a belt driven one that looks kinda like an a/c pump...... most of the trucks the passenger fuel tank is the hyd tank ......they do a lot of in house custom fab work

finally got a video loaded on youtube from a few weeks ago , figured i'd try out the video on my phone, bummed out that it focused on the grass instead of the machine ...oh well

step 1-remove gate
step2- grab sander
step3- plug in sander
step4- grab plow
step5- hang and plug in the plow

takes like 15 mins
