Lightweight Belly-Mounted Blade TRACTORS Accessories 19-5-9 "Works great for leveling my driveway or yard and is small enough that I can even use it inside buildings that have dirt or crushed rock floors," says Richard Cox, Franklin, Ill., who mounted a 5-ft. wide, belly-mount blade on his 1961 Allis-Chalmers D-14 tractor.
Cox fashioned the blade out of a 3-pt. blade he already had. Part of the blade mounting system he used came off an old horse-drawn road grader. The blade is sup-ported by a cable that runs over a pair of pulleys and is connected to the tractor's 2-pt. lift arms. Cox raises the blade by operating the control lever for the lift arms. He can rotate the blade left or right by turning a lever equipped with a cam. Blade pitch can be manually adjusted by turning a threaded crank mounted behind the blade.
"It takes only a few minutes to put the blade on or off," notes Cox.
