The worlds Most Advanced Road grader!

What happens here

The grader's design includes a serrated front edge to cut through hard-packed material and a smooth straight edge at the rear for finishing. This combination ensures that buried materials are brought to the surface and then smoothed out. Additionally, the grader can be fitted with a bolster wheel kit, which adds weight (approximately 330 pounds) to the front. This extra weight slightly lifts the front blade off the ground, reducing wear and tear on the skid plates and providing a smoother ride for the operator. The bolster wheel kit can be easily attached or removed with just a couple of bolts.

Goal: Understand how the grader’s blade design and optional attachments improve performance and operator comfort.

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 then you go red add great yep you typically want to start that at grade when you're and then you have the ability to adjust the opposite side but when you're going in this direction and as you can see on this roadway you have that Mohawk grass stain up the middle yeah which you're going to be able to pull that out and then get your crown set okay foreign [Music] we can take this from the front of my skid dogger to put it on the back of a tractor right and that's all works right here right so this this model we we sent to you our beefiest Mercedes type version with the Dual hydraulic and the bolster wheel kit this bolster wheel kit is just assembled by a couple of bolts it comes right off uh you can put a three-point hitch on here which has category one and two available on it so that when you know depending on what tractor you have it's going to fit either either type cat one or two um the the welds are already here so even if you decide down the road hey I want to add that bolster wheel kit or I want to add that three-point hitch it's already there so you can add it on down the road this bolster wheel kit is about 330 pounds of add-on and that's just from here to here okay what that's going to do is it's going to lift the front end up off the ground slightly so that you don't get so much wear and tear and you take some of the shaking out of your gr your uh skid steer as you would typically get as you're grading along so it's going to give you a smoother ride and it's going to keep your shoes from wearing so quickly as you can take a look at those skid plates skid bars there those are made of steel and bolted on so they can be reversed once the front end starts to wear out so you've got this skid plate designed with this curve here and the curve on the back end here so you can just switch it around so when the front…
