Easy access

Eliminate windrows and washboarding with Roadrunner’s grading blade. A low mounting plate facilitates cab entry, and heat-treated wear pads extend the life of skid bars. An optional serrated cutting edge offers increased performance for demanding applications. Grading blades are available for tractors and skid steers. Tractor-mounted models feature a three-point hitch, dual blade configuration and independent blade adjustments on each side. Skid-mounted blades offer a three point hitch or universal skid steer mounting plate, dual blade configuration and independent blade adjustments.

Accurate and adaptable

HitchDoc’s Dual Dozer provides accuracy and adaptability with its laser-controlled grading box. The attachment’s mount allows the blade to operate independently from the skid steer and holds its grade by receiving laser signals from each sensor simultaneously. Its hydraulic cylinders maintain grade level and subgrade accuracy within 1/8 inch. The Dual Dozer attaches to a tractor three-point hitch and most skid steer models. It comes standard with two blades for forward and reverse grading.
