Power Grader

Towed behind an ATV, utility vehicle, or lawn/garden tractor, this Power Grader is designed to smooth out unpaved roads, lanes, driveways, parking lots, farmstead graveled areas, horse arenas, etc. The implement’s carbide-tipped steel scarifying teeth is designed to loosen hard compacted materials to remove high spots and washboards. The rear leveling blade then spreads the loosened material to fill in potholes, ruts, and washout. An actuator, operated by remote control from the towing vehicle driver’s seat, makes height adjustments and regulates how deep the grading teeth penetrate. Available are four models, varying in width, weight, and number of teeth, as is an optional drag screen attachment to produce a final groomed surface.
