The worlds Most Advanced Road grader!

What happens here

The Roadrunner C-Series grader is highlighted for its unique ability to 'crown' a road, meaning it can create a slightly raised center to ensure proper water drainage. This is achieved through its dual hydraulic system, allowing independent adjustment of the left and right sides of the grader. Each side has a depth gauge (marked in black and red) to indicate the blade's position relative to the ground (2 inches below to 2 inches above grade). The grader also features a serrated front blade for breaking up hard material and a straight rear blade for a smooth finish, enabling it to manage and transport unwanted material effectively.

Goal: Familiarize with the unique capabilities and controls of the Roadrunner grader.

Tools and materials

  • Depth Gauge — Providing visual feedback on blade depth (2 inches below to 2 inches above grade)
  • Hydraulic Cylinders — Allowing independent height adjustment of the grader sides
  • Roadrunner C-Series Grader Roadrunner — The equipment being described
  • Serrated Front Blade — Breaking up compacted material and vegetation
  • Straight Rear Blade — Smoothing and finishing the graded surface
