Boasting an 8.6-cubic-yard capacity, the PAT blade empowers you to tackle dozing, grading, and material movement tasks with exceptional prowess. The hydraulic dual-tilt option allows operators to conveniently adjust blade pitch from the cab, making it ideal for applications requiring frequent pitch modifications. Programmed return-to-pitch settings enable operators to preset blade-pitch positions, easily activated with a button press.

With a substantial 6-Way PAT blade width of 184 inches, each pass covers more ground, reducing the need for multiple passes.
