Grading Revolution

One Scandinavian inspired attachment which seems to be top of the wish list for “tilty” users these days is the grading beam. Just like tiltrotators, our Scandinavian cousins have been using grading beams for many years and in familiar style, UK adopters are now enjoying the benefits that a grading beam can offer.

Another operator who is a regular grading beam user is Steve Hill, who ply’s his trade for Geoff Cooke Equestrian Arenas on a Volvo excavator with a Rototilt R4 tiltrotator.
