Gday

I Have started to make the graderblade for my simplictiy 7013s
it is to hard to get 1 from the usa.
i have been going on pics a member from MtF has kindly sent me cheers for that.
ok i have to make all this outside and pack it up at end of the day or rain i got a shed but it only got a pa door and it got to much junk in it to weld or grind inside.
in 1 pic it is sitting on the ground where it will sit in the tractor. I got to fix the homemade press i used to bend the main frame i broke it lol i was bending the lift bracket and it not cope but it did the 1st lot lol.
i am making it out of 5mm x 10mm bar and 5mm plate.i should be picking up a piece of 2mm by 1ft high 46" long steel for the blade than i only got to make the mounting bits up and then i want to make a mmm finger tine or something like that to run over the dirt about 1-2" deep just to brake it up so i can push it around.

i have gone into a spot never cut before only stalled it 2 times i need to move the dirt into the holes 1 day soon
oh and i put a bit of a stone deflector on the deck much better! but if weeds are thick it clumps but i just go over it 2 or 3 times

has any 1 got a top lift hitch from a 7000 range simplictiy i cant get 1 here i need a tape run over it and the cable so i can start to make 1 i am getting the bottom hitch made.

heres a pic of the scrap that i have picked up around the yard? where i have been cutting the weeds i can still find bits of wire and stuff.
i went to replace the deck belt and decided to replace the bearings on the spindles they was noisy when i got it should cope for now? lol wow $99au for 6 of em if i ever have to replace em again ill do more looking on ebay this time?
oh i have picked up a simplicity 4211 with no deck or lift mec or motor for $100au got to find a motor for it now it can be a trailer tower and it should keep Shannon of my 7013 cos she likes driving mine all the time lol
ok heres the pics
thanks and cheers

Hitch looks good. Just need to add a couple of holes so you can angle the blade and a lift arm.

Carry on,

Scummy, are you looking for dimensions on the rear lift assembly?

My apology. The extra holes are in the attachment (dozer blade) and not the hitch. Your two holes in the hitch are correct.

The sleeve hitch looks fine. When did you get the 4200 series?
