So Kent, the purpose of leaning front wheels is to counter the side thrust produced by an angled blade that is pushing a heavy load. Vertical tires don’t have as much side trust resistance as an angled tire with the same front end weight. The weight is spread over a larger area thus producing a lower psi ground pressure. Leaning wheels are also important when cutting ditches on the side of the road. It prevents the top of the tire from hitting the vertical bank on the outside of the ditch
I’m in college for HEO and I just got my certification for motor graders today. They’re comfortable machines, but they can be a pain to operate. Great video.
Ok, I just have to ask, and I know I'm not the only one wanting to ask this. What is the purpose for having the steer wheels leaning to one side or the other on graders?
now that road grader is a beast. thanks for the awesome content bud. stay strong, stay safe out there and take care fella.
