The gravel spreader is a well-proven product that is usually regarded as standard equipment for road graders. The gravel spreader has a hydraulic lift with a shock-absorbing operating mechanism, and the blade position can be adjusted sideways. The draw beam has extra reinforced couplings and bushed joints to minimise maintenance.
Standard:
• As standard, the gravel spreader is delivered with flat, reversible cutters without teeth and a hitch that fits VV´s coupling plate
• 4 hydraulic hoses + Tema 5011 with guard
Accessories:
• Pivot wheel assembly (solid rubber wheels)
• Hitch with hooks for Stora BM
• Hydraulic control of movable blade
• Hydraulic control of angle adjustment
• Quick hitch for road grader - Auta a dopravní prostředky
This product has worked for over 50 years in Sweden very well and we have very tough conditions here.
Ground looks excellent after grading is completed!
Based on the comments, it seems that the purpose of this device is not fully understood outside of Scandinavia, excluding Canada. Here this is fairly common attachment on graders, used primarily on maintaining old gravelroads, moldboard cuts potholes and windrow are spreaded back to surface. Could be necessary to do second or more pass per lane if holes are deep. Name of this attachment is "karheenlevitin" in finnish, you can search it, this would be "windrow spreader" in direct tranlation.
So much satisfaction
trabalho muinto bom com esta motoniveladora, gostei!!
Congrats, hope it doesn't rain
bom trabalho
Wow there seem to sssssso many outstanding operators commenting here all running down this attachment, have any of you used it? Tossers.
Yes, I hated it, only used it when I was getting a visit from the forestry commission who owned the grader.
I was much happier when the apprentice backed it into a tree, broke it and then took it off for repair and it never went back on, we fitted a set of chisel ploughs and never looked back, the chisels broke the surface and the mouldboard graded the surface, it worked really well and there was a sense of satisfaction in my work.
A lot of comments are correct that this is a device that will enable companies to pay a lesser rate as there is a lesser skill, much like the up and coming dozer and excavator drivers I see with machine control, they can drive to machine control but without it they're lost, shame really as it is hurting the already carved out construction industries where pay was once good but hasn't gone up much in a decade while simultaneously housing has gone up 10X the price in the same space of time.
cuantas vueltas dura este juguete y si ay un material mas grueso
That wouldn't work here on our public roads!
+Michel Louiseize I can see this coming in handy on some of the northern Ontario bush roads. When a road is being graded up here, it's always done with one machine, usually no traffic control, and the operator has to travel sometimes the entire length of the road in one pass. With this, at least it would flatten out the worst of his windrow as he goes so he's not leaving a hazard for any traffic that might come up behind him.
It's not spreading as wide as the cut. Spreading with the blade does a better job.
looks pretty cheezy. the blade has to crawl at a snails pace, and whatever happened to the idea of an operator running a single moldboard blade sittin in a deep seat with both feet flat on the floor with a far-away look, he's the dirt mover that's gonna make you money. This contraption is heading towards minimum wage, right to work state types of employment. It's ironic, a 1 million dollar machine like a 657 caterpillar scraper to be run by some completely unknown half crazy and intoxicated earthmoving dirt hand, that in the hills will scare most observers and sometimes the owner unless he knows what he's watching, and they want to pay meager wages, low pay? It's nuts.
just looks like something to drag along to fix the operators mistake with the left over winrow... like spell check does for me lol
Would've been great without music. This isn't a rock video.
Or you could just learn how to operate the levers in the cab of the grader.......
chhh...i could do that with just the mould board....
Yeah you could.... but it would take you 2 additional passes. First one to pick up the wind row and the second to feather out and lose the rest! I see the potential here to POSSIBLY save fuel and time by eliminating the extra 2 passes. There's nothing wrong with trying to increase time and fuel efficiency!
main problem i see with this grader set up is no scarifier. you're screwed if you need to rip. Would be decent with front scarifier instead of dozer blade
looks like a cheap pos! wouldn't hold up for SHIT not to mention trying to turn around in a narrow spot lol IL keep my ripper thanks!
CAT DIESEL POWER, obviously this attachment is for a specific purpose, pretty sure your rippers couldn’t run material back across like this does. Go through South Australia and you’ll see the same attachment being used for shoulder grading along the highways.
Saves time and money
