I am taking delivery on my JD 2305 this week. I am looking at getting a 48" boxblade to do some earth work. Here is what I have:
A low area about 50' by 50' surrounded on both sides by about the same area to pull dirt from. In total about a 50' by 150' patch that needs to be levelled. The total difference might be 6-12" of dirt that needs to be pulled into the low spot. Is this too big of a task for my little JD, or will this be ok, just taking some time to get it done. Also is this hard on the machine to do this kind of hard pulling work? The ground is basically hard packed black dirt with the odd small rock in it. There is about 2-3 feet of this hard pack clay like topsoil.
Let me know your thoughts
