Heavy Dozer Blade Fitted To Farm Tractor

Heavy Dozer Blade Fitted To Farm Tractor MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Earth Movers 24-1-28 Mounting a heavy dozer blade on the front of a Case 1070 farm tractor lets Bing Ribble, Hettick, Ill., move more dirt, rock and snow than he could ever handle with a conventional rear-mounted 3-pt. blade. The dozer blade came off an Allis Chalmers crawler tractor. Ribble had to build mounting brackets that reach back under the Case frame. The brackets are hinged to allow the blade to move up and down. He also built lift brackets on front with two hydraulic cylinders that lift and lower the blade. He can angle the blade for plowing snow by installing a spacer on one side. Ribble carries extra weight behind when plowing snow to give extra traction to the rear wheels.
