Of the vehicles we've tested, utility tractors and four wheel drive ATVs perform best for towing the Power Grader. Lawn tractors, including zero turn models, also work very well. Towing requirements when using a lawn tractor are:
- 48" Model: must have a tractor with 14 HP or greater, weighing 400 lbs or more.
- 60" Model: must have a tractor with 19 HP or greater, weighing 500 lbs or more.
The Power Grader cannot be used with a Truck (2WD or 4WD) or SUV. Towing the Power Grader with one of these vehicles wouldn't give you the results you would be expecting. It is best being able to see the gravel/dirt when you are grading so you can adjust the teeth accordingly. Trucks are wider then the Grader which means you will not be able to get along the edges. Also, use of a truck will void the Power Grader warranty.
