Blade & Grading Attachments for Leveling, Driveways & Site Prep
Moving dirt is the easy part. Leaving it flat, smooth and sloped so water runs where it should is the skill.
Blades and grading attachments help you spread, push, cut and level material — whether you're fixing a washed-out gravel drive or prepping a pad for a new shop.
How Blades and Grading Attachments Work
A box blade is a three-sided box with a cutting edge. As you drag it, it shaves material off the high spots, carries it along and drops it into the low spots. Scarifier teeth in front loosen hard ground first. A dozer blade pushes and spreads material, and it can angle and tilt hydraulically from the seat.
A landplane uses a long frame with blades set inside it. The length bridges over bumps, so it planes the ground flat instead of following every dip. For the tightest tolerances, grader attachments can work with laser or GPS systems to hold an exact grade.
Tips for a Better Grade
Take light cuts and make more passes. Digging in too deep leaves waves.
Keep a steady ground speed so the blade cuts evenly.
Crown gravel driveways so the center is slightly higher than the edges and water runs off.
Use scarifier teeth to break up hard, packed ground before you grade it.
What You Can Do With a Blade
Spread it, push it, cut it, level it — and send water where it should go.
Maintain gravel drives
Fill potholes and restore the crown on gravel driveways.
Spread material
Spread gravel, topsoil and fill evenly.
Backfill
Backfill around foundations and trenches.
Prep pads
Prep pads for sheds, slabs and shops.
Cut drainage swales
Cut swales and set slope away from buildings.
Level fields & lots
Level arenas, fields and parking areas.
Push snow
Push snow with a dozer or angle blade.
Common Types of Blades & Grading Attachments
Five tools, from rough pushing to laser-precise finish grade.
Box Blades
The all-around leveling tool. They cut, carry and spread material in one pass, and they're especially popular on compact tractors.
Dozer Blades
Turn a skid steer or track loader into a small dozer for pushing, spreading and rough grading.
Angle Blades
A three-point blade for tractors. It angles and tilts for grading driveways, cutting ditches and moving snow.
Landplanes
A long frame that smooths large areas and driveways to a flat, even finish.
Graders
Precision grading attachments that work with laser and GPS systems for commercial site work.
How to Choose the Right Blade
Four quick checks and you'll land on the right setup.
Rough or finish work
Dozer blades move a lot of material. Box blades and landplanes leave a smoother finish.
Your machine
Loaders run dozer blades, box blades, landplanes and graders. Tractors run three-point box blades and angle blades sized to their hitch category.
Pick the width
Your blade should be at least as wide as your tracks or tires, so you grade over your own tire marks.
How precise you need to be
For driveways and yards, your eye and a level are enough. For slabs and commercial pads, consider laser-ready grading.
