Thanks for subscribing glad you like the videos thanks for watching!

That’s awesome I have run the sharq edges and I did like them a lot I got a new video coming out in a couple weeks of some new sharq edges I’m very impressed with the edges I’m trying out glad to hear you like the videos thanks for watching.

Thanks glad you liked the video I’ve been around a few 130G machines great machines and I gotcha we don’t use any salt so nice to have the right edges to make roads safer to travel on thanks for watching!

Thanks Jack!

I belive that these boards are a little bit further spaced then the sandvig boards I would agree with you on taking every other bit out on them boards would cut better and not take as much power I’m suer it’s nice to have a more laid back winter after last year we’ve had a mild winter here up until last 3 weeks we’ve had lots of snow and wind. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!

Depending on what Sandvik boards you have they are spaced anywhere from 1-2" between the bits. The boards Graderman140M is running are the non-rotating carbide bits, those are spaced maximum 2.25" apart but there are wider bits available that bring that spacing down or touch each other giving you a full solid carbide blade. Like Graderman said if you knock every other tooth out that will help with cutting but make sure to keep an eye on the open holes in the board because if material is flowing through those holes it could wear the inside of the hole and might making it harder reinstalling the bits.

Yeah up here in South Dakota we can see all kinds of different weather so it’s nice to have specialized blades to deal with it thanks for watching!

I’d definitely try a set out they definitely are useful in certain situations.

Glad to hear that and I was in 4th gear when I was cutting the ice thanks for watching!

I don’t have it in float I have a little pressure on it to keep cutting the snow and ice,yeah I can believe it’s a steep learning curve plowing snow in a grader is a challenge for a newer operator hopefully my videos will help you out and I’m glad you enjoy seeing me work thanks for watching!

I do like these cat style bits for cutting hard pack and ice and like them for mixing material in the spring I would recommend not running them through the summer though there to aggressive once roads get dry and hard these are to aggressive I’d recommend you look in to a rotating carbide bits like you have on your mulcher you can use them year round is what I’d recommend you use here is a link of what I run on the one blade hopefully have the same setup on this machine this spring. equipmentblades.com/products/carbide-faced-4ft-bit-board and here is the bits I use equipmentblades.com/products/c87wfrkcsb

I don’t have the blade in float the snow and ice is hard enough the blade in float will just ride on top of the snow and ice thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed watching it this is in wall lake township South of Hartford thanks for watching!

@@graderman140m I may need to take a trip down to see some live action

I am also new at the job but I’ve learned that if you attach your dozer to the front and have it lowered enough it will bust up the small drifts enough so your front tires don’t ride over the drifts causing you to bounce. Good luck.

@@levivilandre2571 there is no such attachment that exists where I work. I wish there was…

@@bigjm83 there’s no such thing as a stupid question and unfortunately without a front plow of some sort you will continue to have your issues of bouncing that’s mainly why I also have my dozer blade on or my v plow or directional plow on my front end to break up the drifts to keep machine from bouncing thanks for the question and thanks for watching!

@@graderman140m no thankyou for the great videos.

Glad you liked the video and I’ve run these around the township and the middle teeth are wore pretty good but outside are still like new get very good wear life on these.

The main reason I pulled it to the center like I normally blade in the summer was is there were spots where there wasn’t much snow and ice and I was mixing a fair amount of gravel in with the snow and ice so I did it that way we did have a warm up and majority of it melted so it worked out great. Thanks for the question and thanks for watching!

So you bladed both sides to the center? Then did a flat pass to knock it down?

@@Ranchpig67 I pulled one side to middle then cut from the middle to the opposite shoulder

Just keep watching his videos and you’ll have those doniphan county roads tip top shape.

I’m in SE South Dakota here so not a long ways away from you and yes send me an email at graderman140m@gmail .com and can answer questions for you.
