350s...

Post by JAY AND EBBEN » Wed Sep 28, 2011 5:52 pm

Even though 350s are small, our good old 350B has been getting a work out lately and has done a great job! we have dug four feet into a hill and leveled it out... see attached

I am amazed how much my 350 will move if I take my time and don't over work it.

With the amount of water it looks like you have... make sure you get your grades right to keep the water away. Looks like you picked the wettest time of the year to dig. Here in Mid-Michigan we are still real dry from the summer, even with the latest rains.

Pretty deep, gives me hope mine will work well once I get her a fixed up.

Your shots remind me of a tennis court project one very wet spring where we established the grade using the belly pan and back dragged; not fun, but satisfying when things finally dried out and the blade was of better use. Have fun with your machine. Paul
