My New BFF: 84 inch Bradco Roller Attachment

[@aaronburford5701]

Love it! Camera view that attachment! It's the best! Need more videos like this! Liked, Viewed, Shared, Subscribed!

I need to make more before and after vids. It's satisfying to see it make rough gravel looks smooth.

10,300 a year ago! Geeze... that thing is 14,300 now! You purchased at the right time.

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

Wow! Lucky me.

I've been thinking about one of these skiddy mounted rollers for quite awhile, thanks for the show. BTW..I work in the wind quite a bit; to avoid losing fines, work tail end to the wind, spreading going forwards with the bucket lip about 2" off the ground. Lift/tip/lift/tip, combine the functions. You actually get a nicer more even job of spreading that way, although it does take a little practice.

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

Thanks for the tip. I'll try that on my next gravel job. I think the roller would be a good investment for you. Let me know if you get one.

Great advice on the fabric. Nice video!!!

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching!

Would you feel confident compacting a house pad with that roller and passing compaction density tests?

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

Nice video bud.

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

Thanks!

[@bryans5339]

How well would that roller do on compacting clean #4 limestone?

[@RottenRandy]

Awesome video. What type of fabric did you use?

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

6 oz. Geotec fabric

Would you say it’s the best roller attachment on the market?

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

I can say it's the best one that I've ever used.

[@NS-vp6nq]

Just got a new one never used 1200 at a auction

[@charlesguptill446]

What brand of rock bucket or grader bucket do you have? Thanks. Very nice video. I just ordered a new Kubota SVL 97 2s. Supposed to receive it the first week in April. I am planning on purchasing this roller as well. Land Pride offers the same roller now. I would purchase the Paladin over the Land Pride. The price of the Paladin / Bradco was $200.00 less. LOL

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

I believe the rock bucket is made by Titan. I'm very curious about the new SVL 97. Hopefully they have fix some of the Def issues.

@@shamrockdirtwork7945 I was on the track to purchase a new SVL 95 when I learned about the update to the SVL 97. Naturally I wanted to wait for the newer machine. In the last year of the 95 production Kubota updated the Def rail, better sensors design and everything. This is continuing on the 97. Otherwise not major differences. Improved glass and cab insulation to eliminate glass chatter. Telematics, self diagnostics, with GPS. Also the back up camera is standard from Kubota. The camera can be left on all the time, or come on only when the machine is reversing. 3 year warrantee on the emissions. A big thank you for the information on the rock bucket. I will check it out. I really appreciate the video on the Bradco roller. Thank you!

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

I misspoke. The bucket is made by Midstate Attachments. www.msattachments.com

[@charlesguptill446]

@@shamrockdirtwork7945 Thank you! I appreciate the update. Could you tell me if the spacing on that bucket is 2 or 3 inches between the tines? Thanks for all of your help.

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

I believe it's 3 inches.

[@zachwolfrom4522]

I just drove the forklift all over it and didn't tear up your smooth surface. Probably due to the permafrost!

[@shamrockdirtwork7945]

That's good to hear. It got up to 19 degrees today. Had to turn the A/C on.
