Mounted on a 16G. Think these systems are becoming outdated.
What blade control systems are others running?
Handy cleaning terrace ends where they go into the waterway, terraces run 3 tenths fall per hundred feet.
I use mine for field drainage mostly. Have cleaned up existing drains that have as little as 1/2 inch fall per hundred feet. Flatter than that doesn't hardly work.
On an irrigated field that was gravity irrigated I used the system to take out holes and humps and make the water flow evenly from one end to the other.
The owner got me into an interesting discussion about the curvature of the earth, and how flat would hold water since the earth itself is curved.
