    Thanks Tim, this is a great video showing the capabilities of the Land Leveler! Thank you for the partnership and showing our products to your subscribers. We are very blessed for all the support and wonderful customers that we have that share our products with others!

      I'd be interested in demoing one of these if possible! Repairing/reclaiming rock is basically all I do with my sub compact and my grading scraper.
      I have many videos of doing it.

  • @komitadjie
    @komitadjie 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

    Dang, that is really cool! A land plane with better surface-busting capability, downpressure, AND really good manipulation. That's a great idea!

  • @bartonmd
    @bartonmd 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Just the control to add and subtract weight with this is really cool!

    Good idea that tool. Kudos to heavy hitch for bringing it to market. Thanks Tim and Christy for showing us.

  • @maintenancewithmike
    @maintenancewithmike 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    That thing works Great! I love that you can just quick attach it onto the loader and not have to go through the three point hitch process for a land plane or box blade. Nice find Tim!

  • @Tony2tall
    @Tony2tall 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I like the forward mounted implements.
    Agree with your analogy of limestone roadway. The road is dusty when dry and slimy when wet and plant life enjoys the borders.

  • @arhzee3310
    @arhzee3310 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This attachment is exactly what I need. I have a gravel driveway and parking lot that always needs to be leveled. I think the land leveler and box blade would make a great combination to level my yard. I ordered one yesterday.

    My uncle built some similar and we call it a dirt dog. Its great to leveling graval and finish grading or stirring up dirt before spreading grass seed in your yard.

    Great attachment, it does a nice job on the gravel driveway and works well even with the wet soil.

  • @BrickyardPowerMan
    @BrickyardPowerMan 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Like how flexible it is in the odd areas like the edge and corners of your driveway. Was equally impressed with the ability to use in gravel and dirt. I think I prefer my box blade with ripper shanks to really turn over my gravel drive but do like how quickly this can create a smooth driveway surface without a dozen passes which I invariably do with my box blade.

  • @denisewildfortune4058
    @denisewildfortune4058 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Thanks for the real-world demonstrations, Tim. I've avoided several specialty implements due to low utilization, not the lack of need. This multi-task tool looks like the Goldilocks tool I've been looking for. Tim and HH for the win!

  • @jakeschisler7525
    @jakeschisler7525 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    My driveway is a pain because not only all downhill but at an angle. Last year we got a hold of a guy who owns a dump truck and some of it he drove and unloaded a lot of it and then behind the house he dumped it in a huge pile. That area has different angles and i never ever messed with gravel and a tractor. It was a learning experience. Some of it turned out not bad but some not so good. That bucket contraption is pretty cool as others have said.

    I did the same thing with my grapple last fall. Tilt it forward and back down the driveway only about 8 things digging in but worked good backing up. Just worried about messing up the grapple doing it. Seemed unhurt but still wasn't designed for that but use what you got.

    Very interesting Tim, I’ve seen FEL mounted land planes, but this definitely seems to work very well. As you mentioned, I like that it doesn’t move a lot of material, just loosening and leveling.

  • @RonaldDean-eq2cb
    @RonaldDean-eq2cb 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I like it, that’s my job for today rebuilding the driveway from the winter use and damage. I have to use my box blade though. The only concern about the leveler is the teeth. If you use it a lot it looks like you will be r-ring teeth after a while. It looks like it would be worth it though. Great video Tim I’m glad there’s another option and I will be looking into it

      @kivetts04dmax 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The ones I saw had a spot on the top where the angled braces come down they had like mounts on the bottom of the angles so you could put it on your trailer and put your bucket on it to save space.

  • @NotMuchHere
    @NotMuchHere 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    roads are fun ... a little rock on the top is ok/good, but its slippery and slides to the edges. Rock is cheaper than crunsh and run / dusty but the dusty stuff packs and makes a great base. Its a balancing act. Thanks for showing alternative tools ... no to convince the boss/wife

    Land Plane on the back, and this tool on the front and you are in business. I think just this though wouldn't leave me satisfied. Having the ability to comb out the gravel and humps better at the end of the land plane run would be a great bonus though.

    Yep looks like a great tool for many reasons, how about redoing an existing area of lawn that u want to bust up the existing sod layer, level soil, and reseed maybe after the harrow goes over it. Id like to see a video like that, like in place of an expensive harley rake.

  • @thomasjfarver2101
    @thomasjfarver2101 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    @karldawnlang8936 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Awesome video! Which this was out before I got a DR power rake several years ago. DR works just more money. Have actually been drawing up much the same except from the chain harrow vs spikes perspective. Spikes would be awesome 1 or 2 passes then pure leveling function for my tasks though. However, the loader float function could less aggressive too. HH products rock!

    Good video Tim. I'm sure it has it's place, but not sure this is better than the land plane I already have (at the same price) as I can drop the ripper shanks and get down deep to pull up the compressed gravel if needed, and also leave a smooth surface, put a crown, and even go faster.

    Interesting attachment. The lines would drive me crazy. It would be great if the scarifiers could retract and have a more of a land plane effect with a couple of angled cross bars on the frame. This definitely solves the end and beginning issues which accompany the use of box blades and land planes.

    Damn Tim, you did it again! Show me something I need. I grade my driveway and another gravel road at least once a year. I have used my Heavy Hitch tooth bar on my bucket to loosen areas, but always afraid of using too much down pressure. And with my new yard needing grading, this looks like a win win. I hope Heavy Hitch is still using Fastenal as a shipper.

    No one ever puts enough crown in their roadways in my opinion…. I built mine 15 plus years ago and have NEVER had to do any Maintence of any kind to it. It has at least a foot of crown in it and was set up like concrete, I also let the grass grow into the edges to hold the gravel so it doesn’t push out and just mow the edges. Built right driveways require little to no on going Maintence because they receive so little actual traffic. Handle your water correctly and most issues will disappear. Cool tool for the weekend warrior though…. I really enjoyed the deere repair series on the auction tractor. 🔥🔥👍👍

  • @wraith3951

    A good road or even a long driveway needs crowned for drainage and packed in with a good hard pan. if it’s left loose you’ll have washboards,pot holes,dust, along with the loose rock will be pushed to the side in a very short time period.
    If it’s a short driveway or just parking spots clean rock is fine and looks good.
    Long driveways/ roads do not last long when left with clean loose stone I would recommend watering and packing it as soon as everything is regraded this alone may make your road last years before needing regrading again.

    Well, old boy, I think you have sold me on that unit. I think what it needs is a flopper plate like a rototiller has to smooth it out, one that could be let down to complete the task 🤔 and left up to do the heavy work.

    Small tractors' loaders are not bulldozers, and I always worry when people try to start pushing their buckets hard they may bend/break the loaders. Tim's 1025R may have the a useful "safety" feature that it loses traction and spins the tires before it over stresses the loader. The control it does offer is surely nicer than using a three-point hitch tool, and the fact the loader's hydraulics does let you put more weight on the front tool will help give such a relatively lightweight tool the bite a similar weight tool would not have on the 3 point.
    But this is definitely a tool that should be used only with a good understanding of just how much force you are trying to make your loader exert.

    I wish I could justify one of these. I need a leveler, but only a few times a year. It would be better if 3 or 4 people bought one together and shared it, but that is hard to do.

      That is an excellent plan for many attachments, such as tillers, grapples, stumpbuckets, etc.

    Have you thought about adding some ballast weights to the implement so it will have more down pressure, but not relying on the down force from the loader? It might be an option to put the loader in float and help maintain steering.
    Over here in Australia we have something similar for skid steers and 3-in-1 buckets, we call it a smudge-bar.
