Crown a Road

I'm gonna go just below grade just below red right there and the other side I'm going to raise I'm gonna raise off so what I'm technically going to do right now is I'm going to take the center of this road and I'm gonna kick it toward that edge I'm gonna put both of my skids down flat on the road and my wheels flat so that it's all levels as I'm rolling along if I feel like I need to adjust that grade up or down on either side I can do it from inside of the cab with just the flick of a thumb so I'm going to try to grab this Edge and kick it this way so I'm attempting to Crown this way one thing to note if you're familiar with box graders the sides on this one are extra long which helps you to really grab a large pile of unwanted material and carry it a long distance to be able to move it off site and out of your work Zone [Music] s better than what it was [Music] let's raise that side up I'm gonna bring that side down and put both sides out foreign so I'm guessing some of you guys can look at this and tell that I'm starting to carry too much material but I can adjust that from inside of the machine so that's exactly what I do right here that took three passes on the front end of this you're gonna see you're gonna see two blades which are already angled this front end is a serrated edge and the back end is a straight edge that's serrated edge allows for any buried materials that have been washed out or covered in Grass what have you to come up to the surface roll over the top end of this front blade and go underneath of that smooth blade in the back to finish it out okay so looking at it from inside of the cab I have a depth gauge over there and I have a depth gauge on that side and where your red bar is going to be your at grade point if you can see here you got black and
