    Which is better, v blade or KG?

    let the opinions fly, looking at cutting a timber logged 8 years ago, like to use D65-15 as I have that tractor. Will it perform? Heavy enough?

    JCB 214 transmission

    I have a 1997 sitemaster, it has jumped out of gear in the past but was a bad relay issue. They have relays for most functions so check electrical system first. Have had my machine for 10 years with no other issues, a good work horse.

    Finish Grading Tips

    time in the seat, and a good teacher best for beginers. problem is no one wants to baby sit new operators. but having a small amount of material in front of the blade does help considerably, especially on smaller short tracked machines.
