These plans are for a hydraulic lift attachment for your garden tractor.
Lifting a heavy bulldozer blade
manually is for the birds even
when it's only a fairly small one on a
garden tractor. Pulling a lever to raise
and lower the blade can make you arm weary
after only a few hours of grading
or snow pushing.
That's why this plan's author decided
to do it the easy way and add a hydraulic
lift so a mere push of a button would
lift and lower the blade. Says the author, " Now I feel like
a big-time heavy-equipment operator!"
The power
unit a is hydraulic system from the convertible
top of a car. Bought from a junkyard, you can make this system cheaply.
