Thank you for saving it from the scrap yard. I to love working on the old stuff and think about its history and boy if they could talk what stories they could tell
I used to blade or ranch road that was originally pull behind pony blade. We could sure dress that road nice. She slower the speed on raising and lowering the moboard,the smoother the road will Be. Nice video and nice machine!
That's a cool piece of machinery! Thanks for saving it from the scrap heap! Once they're all gone we'll never have this great educational tool to show us how it was back then again.
Don't know if you're familiar with a tv show called CLASSIC TRACTOR Federer not but you should.they would love this thing.kudos to you for still keeping it
That brings back some memories of the Cat road grader we had. It was from the 1920's. It had mechanical levers to to manipulate the blade. If you took the blade to the ends of its range, the kickback force on the lever could hurt you. We would have 2 people operating it, because after a day of snow plowing you were beat up. A very physically demanding machine.
@Geo Thomas The levers were just part of the fun / I mean hazards of that beast. Just trying to get it started with the hand crank was just as much fun. I can't tell you how many times the engine would kickback while attempting to start it. My neighbor learned that lesson the hard way when it kicked back and the handle smacked him upside the face and broke his nose. There is a correct posture to use when hand starting an engine, fortunately I learned that lesson at his expense.
That's SWEET! It does the job! A buddy of mine has an Adams made in the 50's. Still runs (4 -71) but needs brake work. He'll get it done and it'll go once more. All manual jaw clutches, either in or out like the old Cat #12's. Good Video and Good workmanship too!
Effrey Jeppstein. Sounds like a small four cylinder engine. And there is no smoke for the guy maintains his equipment. Nice try you dumb fk, go. Ru somewhere else.

Cool attitude for the good ol machinery that still gets the job done, but wonder why the 10 people left thumbs down
Back when odot employees actually worked.
the kids need to learn on one of these instead of having gps
Dan Brunskill I totally agree, these kids should learn how to operate the equipment free of tech before completely relying on it.
Dan Brunskill Unfortunately the bigger companies want production and won't let them develop an eye for grade and a bubble in their "seat" lol
How many years you run one
Hahahaaa! Really!! It'd look like a choppy sea!!! ;~`)
Is that a number 9
Laser doser?)))
Sad the motor is not original. Any chance to rebuilt original engine?
