I had a similar rock bucket and it definitely worked good, but that one works amazing and it is super simple. I love that you can take it apart with pins easily and you have a bucket.

Stan for you to go out and say how much you like it, probably it is because you got all kinds of crazy machines. From what I can see it is a big time saver and it works well. Stan, I think you found your dream tool for dirt work.

Thats a really sweet attachment. My favorite attachment for grading is our 3-point rototiller. Becuase thats all that i got for now. Thanks for the vids💪💪💪

Hey Dirt Monkey, Great video! I've been following your site for a long time .I have a suggestion for you. Ryan doesn't know it yet but he needs you to finish his new property. This Rockaway would be a key thing to use ! He needs a retention pond built on the new property he bought .I think you are the man . He's been leveling out the new land in preparation to move VICTORY OUTDOOR SERVICES. You should call him ,I'm pretty sure you know Ryan ,anyway not sure how far you live from Victory but it could be a decent amount of work for you . Thanks for your site! Dan. (DDMAU) TAYLOR

Stan, works like the FMC Preperator We used in the 90's. It had a rotating drum with teeth and a brush to opposing it to brush loose dirt thru the bucket that had holes in it. It could eat a 20+ inch rock.
@Dirtmonkey Жыл бұрын
That is pretty cool.
@dexewing1 Жыл бұрын
The "work smarter not harder" saying applies here to the Rockaway. Pretty much one or two passes and the ground is ready for seed application. Time saver and labor saver. Who can argue with that?

Stan they are basically in my back yard was just on job where another site contractor rented one worked well but as you said seems to pick up a lot of god soil withe the bad. When I use my rock hound I’ll tilt the bucket forward and just rake with teeth first all heavy material then go back over with bucket on ground and pick up remaining rocks and debris. Don’t know if that attachment is capable of doing that. But grading with a York raked and hand grading when I was younger great strides in new equipment to reduce labor 👍

Might need a metal cover over the hose connection into the equipment. Some of the rocks popping out or debir could possibly puncture the lines

Looks very similar to our FFC Preparator. Tilt your bucket 45-90 degrees and back drag just the attachment. Then you won’t fill your bucket with as much topsoil. Once you make several passes and have a debris pile formed and you can collect the rocks in the bucket.

Definitely for the king of finish grades. Otherwise I would go for a Harley/ruckus rake to get some depth and pulverization of small stuff in the seed bed. Having some lose soil for water to soak into would help with keeping the lawn watered.

Only looked to be a couple inches of soft soil on top of that hard pack. Ideal to get grass going but as the root develop they’ll have nowhere to go. The hydra bucket does a better job in my opinion for hard pack. I mean you went over that area multiple times. Best set up is hydra bucket and rockhound for grading.
