Moldboard condition, circle wear, articulation, tandem drive and grade-control equipment deserve close attention. All-wheel drive, front attachments and ripper/scarifier packages can materially change suitability.

Machine types and configurations

  • Compact and municipal
  • Construction
  • Mining and haul-road
  • All-wheel-drive
  • Snow-equipped
