646fel earning it's keep!

Post by Harry »

I decided to resurface my stone driveway with #1 crusher and run stone. Moved 20 ton and waiting for the next load today.

Eugen the back blade I picked up a few years ago from a place that was closing. It is 48" wide and has no identification tag on it, so I'm not sure about the manufacturer. This is the second time I've used it and it worked fine for grading.
Tim I've had no problem with traction with the ags on the rear. I'm planning on doing some work later this summer in the back where this year still has standing water. The thunder storms just keep continuing here in Western New York.

I removed the back blade yesterday and found this decal on one of the support tubes. It's a bit hard to figure out who the manufacturer is.

Harry that seems to be a Howse implement

I got some gravel work in the near future but no rear blade yet. Got an old big scraper from a friend which I hope to adapt to the 644 though.

She’d probably handle a bit more blade. I have a 60” on the 7020, the tractor itself is 48” wide.

These machines are really powerful and I'm sure they can handle a 60" blade. The 48" blade I picked up was at a price that I couldn't pass up and I figured it was an item that I wouldn't use that much. This is the second time I used it which was for stone not dirt. An experienced operator can back drag using a bucket, which I am not.
