The owner narrates hookup, angle modes (V, scoop, straight blade), joystick controls, ground speed/gear choice, plow-shoe use on gravel, and how the tractor's weight and 4WD handle 3-8 inch snow. Good for buyers weighing a 5090R plus V-plow combo for real farm use.

It hooked up to the tractor real easy with just a couple hydraulics, with Minnesota Equipment and the Sno-Way distributor working with Deere to get it mounted.
No, at six or seven degrees out it started without glow plugs and fired right up, running about 900 RPM at idle. Below zero it might be needed.
Yes, the tractor pushed through three to eight inches of snow without struggling, using its weight and four-wheel drive, though it can slide a bit on ice.
The owner used B1, a slower gear, while getting used to the rig and the feel of the plow, though faster gears are possible once experienced.
