Graders [noun]

Joining the line two or three miles down the valley, he found a track-grader's tool hut and went in and smoked.

As already mentioned, a machine frequently found in wholesale plants is the separator, or grader.

The motive power for the elevating grader is either a tractor or five or six teams of mules.

When the wagon is loaded, the grader is stopped while the loaded wagon is hauled out and an empty one drawn into position.

Generally four mules are hitched to a pusher in the rear of the grader and six or eight in the lead.

A tractor may be used to draw the elevating grader and one having a commercial rating of 30 to 45 horsepower is required.

The pull required to fill a Maney grader is so great that a tractor is ordinarily employed in place of a "snap" team.

These machines have a device which permits the operator to steer the grader independently of the tractor.

The sods and weeds will be drawn into the road along with the earth just as they are when the elevating grader is employed.

The tractor is hitched at the end of the tongue, without interfering with the team drawing the grader.
