Grading a Back yard with an ASV Tracked skid steer

What happens here

The operator begins the active grading process by using the ASV RT-75's front bucket to push and redistribute the excavated dirt and new fill material across the backyard. This initial phase, known as rough grading, focuses on eliminating major uneven spots and establishing a general, consistent downward slope that directs water away from the house and patio areas, following the pre-determined drainage plan.

Goal: Establish the general slope and eliminate major uneven spots in the backyard.
