I have a 299C and running a Bobcat box blade that was setup for Bobcat skid.There is lots of issue with a skid and grading box.One of the main things is that they are not deep cutting attachments ,just carry and fill loose material.Like if you have an area that need 5/10 cut then the box blade won't cut it off,especially if the cut in hard ground.The front wheel on box blade come up ,but the box won't cut.One reason it that once the lift arms are down on the stops you can get no down pressure.
If you tilt the box scraper ahead with the bucket cylinder it will try to deep,but then you override the laser and all the wheel on the box scraper raises higher trying to tell you that you need to go deeper.Yes i realize it trying to make adjustment,but it just doesn't cut,but the skid need to have the arms on stops and tilt locked also to do fine grading with the laser attachment.Clear as mud i know.
Where as with a dozer you don't have the limits of the stops on you depth like at skid has.
Skids are limited to there ability to cut because of the stops for the lift arms,compared to dozer where you don't have that limitations.
