New EA Land Plane(LPGS)

[EverythingAttachments]

Here's a sneak peek at the new Land Shark land leveler with ripper shanks, which will be offered in 48", 60" and 72" widths.
It is made in our factory and outfitted with US Made cutting edges and ripper shanks.

This one isn't as robust as our current models, which have fully welded, category 1-2 combination hitches, but it's really plenty for most compact tractors.

Comments and questions are welcome!

I wonder how well the scarifiers work. My LPGS is a seven foot heavy duty model and without scarifiers it digs in more than I would like. With 100hp on a tracked machine it will dang near bring me to a stop in the right conditions.

How much does it weigh? I find the rippers need a lot of force when my driveway hasn't had rain for a few weeks. In mid to late summer it can get packed hard enough so I really can't do anything to the driveway.

The scarifiers really add versatility, so I've heard.

Can anyone who has used both share some thoughts?

The weight ranges from just over 400 for the 48" to just under 600 for the 72".

These models really are ideal for small/mid size compact tractors. Those who prefer more weight and more aggressive cutting edge angles will choose our EA Land Leveler. Customers have really raved about the awesome job it does!

I will be constructing a new road to house we will be building on our land and maybe someone can clear up confusion I have concerning use of this attachment. I understood that you would want a road that was high in the center to drain water off the road instead of a flat road. If that is the case why would you want to level the road? Seems this would create standing water on road and this more likely to create ruts and holes in road. [SUP][/SUP]

People often use the terms "flat" and "level" as synonyms. A common wall is "flat," but a floor is both "flat" and "level."

On a crowned road, each side is flat, but not level. Your LPGS should ideally be the width of half your road. It makes one side flat, then the other side. Don't run it down the middle.

Many roads and driveways aren't crowned, but sloped one way all the way across. OK to run the LPGS on the sides and center.

What you want to avoid on a graded road is flat and level.

Why would you go backward??
I thought the goal was to make the next generation stronger, better, and more capable!!??

I want one that is stronger, better, and more capable than your current offerings,,, :thumbsup:

Price. Some people need economy tools rather than premium ones.

It depends on how you define level. Level can mean many things... lateral level (with or without crown), level as in taking out a hill, or level as in smooth by getting rid of ruts & potholes.

You can adjust your side links on the 3pt so your land leveler is leveling things relative to the implement & build a crown rather than level to the bubble in a level.
