Features
Breakaway Feature

The breakaway feature includes two large coil springs that help the blade edge retract when encountering a solid object. This reduces the operational shock experienced by the driver and minimizes the risk of blade damage. A locking pin keeps the blade secured in the desired position.
Heavy-Duty Construction

A reinforcing angle behind the blade's front edge ensures durability. The blade has a replaceable cutting edge that forms a continuous curve, rolling material rather than pushing it, which enhances capacity and extends the blade's life.
Adjustable Skid Shoes

Adjustable skid shoes offer eight different height settings, enabling operators to choose the appropriate blading height for various tasks. This adjustability simplifies achieving uniform grading and prolongs skid shoes' utility. Optional heavy-duty skid shoes available for purchase.
