[0:12] Uh my name is Jeff Vanleet. I am the
[0:15] city of Blaine Street Sport person. This
[0:17] is a brand new 2025 Volvo tandem axle.
[0:20] Uh it's got 400 m on it right now. So
[0:23] it's a good truck. During the offse,
[0:26] these trucks will be stripped down. When
[0:28] we start getting ready for winter, we're
[0:29] checking over the plows, hooking them
[0:31] up, making sure all the hydraulics and
[0:34] everything are working. We end up
[0:36] putting the the underbody back together.
[0:38] The plow has to go on. Salter and the
[0:41] sander go back on and calibrate that
[0:44] stuff so we can get ready for salt
[0:46] usage. We're trained in smart salting.
[0:48] So that just puts out how much salt the
[0:50] augur is turning, how much salt gets
[0:52] dumped out on the road. First plow of
[0:54] the season. We want to be safe and
[0:56] effective. So, just give us room. Slow
[0:58] down when you see a plow truck. Just
[1:01] make sure that we can do our job safely
[1:03] and effectively to where we can get you
[1:04] to go where you need to go safely and
[1:07] effectively and in one piece.
