What happens here
Begin grading the road by making multiple passes. Start by positioning the Roadrunner blade to pull material from the outer edges towards the center. The dual hydraulic system allows for precise angling of the blade, which is essential for establishing the road's crown. The wheel kit provides stability and ensures a smoother, more consistent grade by reducing bounce and shake. For the initial pass, focus on moving enough material to start forming the convex shape of the crown, allowing water to shed to the sides. Angle the blades to push material from the left or right side towards the center as needed.
Goal: Create a proper convex crown on the road for water drainage
