Ken White Construction everyone says they don’t back blade for grading because they are trying to look better than the next guy. I don’t care what way it gets graded, I care about if it’s graded correctly, looks good, and the job was done as fast as possible so we can move to the next job.
Only reason your not supposed to back blade is because while in reverse on track machines your undercarriage wear is much worse than it is while going forward but like u said for finish grading gotta do what ya gotta do to get the job done
We used leftover asphalt grindings for our main entrance. They work pretty well. After a few hot weeks and driving it basically turns into a paved road lol.
I get it a lot of old school Operators hate on back blading but I still find it Necessary sometimes. But if I only have minimal lines at the end I honestly just go over each one with the track them reverse on the same one and track compact. Easy way to smooth out small lines and keep your grade.
YES DOZER CONTENT! It’s 2021 right now and we haven’t seen the dozer since last years snow storm witch was 2019-2020 so we need to see some nice dozer content soon, I know that your on break now but when you come back I would really love to see some dozer content! Have a great week my dude!
Doze it brother! Great video as always! When you’re as good as me you don’t have to back blade 🤣🤣 JK I always back blade when finishing. 👍🏻. Thanks for the video!
More dozer action! Also, back blading is not a crime when finish grading. I’ve seen it done. I’ve been told it’s fine. Some people say it wears the cutting edge down faster and exposes all the hoses and hydraulics to danger, but 🤷🏽♂️. Also, the little 450 sounds dirty when she’s idling #Dozin
I agree with you on back dragging. Your not the kind of person that cares what other people think. At least from what I see and know of you on these videos. Keep making the content that’s all I care about watching.
I don’t see a problem blading both ways, as long as you aren’t trying to move tons going backwards. On loaders they say its bad because it can bend cylinders, Only thing it does is more wear as it’s touching the ground both ways. But if not, no deal.
Hey Guy ! Im a French contractor in the excavations and i love so much your video ! I made vidéo in my UA-cam Chanel again :) One question , what is your drone for filming in thé Sky ? ;) Good day for you and your team 😁👋
I've heard of you guys a lot. I live around the carp area and my grandpa has an old 1985 John deer 450C and some excavators. we should meet up sometime and do some jobs together.
Nothing wrong with back dragging for normal people. All equipment is made for such. Some equipment transmissions clutches can't take loading in reverse as can in forward but back dragging don't load as much. Ignorance started the no back dragging crap.
@@KenWhiteConstruction I never thought I needed one either till I bought one. Works great for snow. I bought a nice Champion that was owned by the state hwy department for less than 30k. AC works and machine is in great shape. You don't have to buy new especially if you don't use it a lot. I even push my scrapers time to time with it if dozer is busy.
Well the problem with your comment is the whole saying don’t buy fancy shirts, I ordered 2 of those Oakley shirts about 2 years ago and still Rock them, and I order hats and work shirts for my guys because I want them to look clean and professional. We get comments all the time about how presentable we look on site. Especially Ottawa being a government city. That being said I really appreciate the comment and the support! Thank you
Haha I get told all the time Brian oh you should never back drag...well how do you get rid of track marks than? Yes we are right beside a Komatsu dealer. Very handy.

what is your take on back-blading for final grading? also do you want to see some more dozer content? lemme know down below!

Knock it down the first pass going forward and while reversing to setup for your second pass back drag. That way you’re always moving material
What’d the paint job cost?
Floating the blade and finishing the grade looks smart. It’s an actual function mfr’s out into the machines for a reason, so it’s correct to do lol.

yes we use asphalt grindings as well, they are great!

I'm going to make a video of just the audio of it, it does sound amazing, very throaty
Nice machine! When I’m finishing I backdrag, but just enough material to cover the tracks. Doze it.
Love the chrome stack man!
How can you not miss it? I enjoy it too!

Coming up!
i have run equipment the better part of my life,you are absolutey right about back blading,rule of thumb,set grade with push finish with back drag
I guess AL can't back up and spread at the same time ??
What are that have cooler.on the cab
I like to keep the bucket or blade working both directions if possible yes backdrag
I love to hear that! My old man always said a good operator can doze both ways
Back dragging is the way i would do it
Thanks Colton! Appreciate hearing that
I back blade everything and what kind calcuim were u using the power stuff or liquid calcium??
Flakes mixed with water
@@KenWhiteConstruction try using magnesium chloride its a liquid it is what i use for dust control around northern Ontario

Awesome!
Something was flying around at 3:40
The dozer looks tinted out. What percentage is it? I’m taking my Takeuchi track loader in on Friday!
I think it’s 30 percent
Ken White Construction I’ve been debating between 30% and 50%
I 100 percent agree with you on back blading, doze it
Doze it, now where is your old case 450 track loader it was a digging machine lots of basements dug by it in the west carleton
Haha I wonder where it is now! I’d love to find out
What's the name of the music you got in this video
Doze it man it's ok to back blade every one does it. Love the vids keep it up
Everybody does not do it.

If someone doesn't understand why you backblade, they understand a bulldozer. I'm just sayin' , with my 25 years/ 25,000 hours experience.
Compactor
if back blading is your way then doze it, and it dose make a more professional look
Love it! Thanks man

Buy a grader instead of the fancy shirts hats and decal stickers
For the one time a year a need a grader? Makes sense. Can I borrow 300 thousand dollars?
