Key Features of the Bradco Skid Steer Land Plane
- Exclusive staggered grate design — separates soil from debris as the plane works.
- Heavy duty beveled front cutter bar.
- Adjustable rear scraper for optimum land shaping.
- 78" working width, at 515 lbs bare or 810 lbs with comb and scarifier.
- No hydraulics required — a mechanical land leveler attachment.
- A land sculptor in Bradco's own naming, and a soil conditioner attachment in practice.
- A skid steer grading attachment for finish work — a driveway grading attachment and a box scraper alternative in one pass.
Why Choose This Skid Steer Land Plane
- Cutting and finishing in one pass. The front bar cuts, the grate sifts and the rear scraper shapes — which is why a plane leaves a finer surface than a blade.
- The comb and scarifier change what it can do. Bare, it levels; with the scarifier it breaks compacted ground first, which is the difference between grading a driveway and rebuilding one.
- Mechanical means fewer failure points. No hydraulic circuit means nothing to leak, nothing to plumb, and no auxiliary flow to find on your machine.

78" Land Plane Questions, Answered
What does the staggered grate do?
It separates soil from debris as the plane works, so the surface left behind is finer than the material going in. That is what distinguishes a plane from a blade.
Bare or with comb and scarifier?
Bare levels and finishes ground that is already loose. The comb and scarifier break compacted material first, which you need on hard-packed driveways and tracks.
Is this better than a box scraper?
For finishing, generally yes — the grate and rear scraper produce a finer surface. A box scraper moves more material in a pass but leaves a coarser result.
Does it need hydraulics?
No. It is a mechanical attachment with no powered function, so any skid steer that can carry 515 to 810 lbs on the quick attach can run it.
How does a land plane differ from a dozer blade?
A blade cuts and casts material to one side; a plane carries material along in front, sifts it through the grate and lays it back down level. The blade moves earth, the plane finishes it.
Can it maintain a gravel driveway?
That is one of its main uses. The scarifier breaks the compacted surface, the grate separates the fines from the stone, and the rear scraper re-lays a level surface in the same pass.
Do I drive forwards or backwards with it?
Forwards for normal levelling — the front cutter bar takes material in and the rear scraper shapes what is left. The adjustable rear scraper is what sets the finished profile.
What width machine does 78 inches suit?
Wide enough that the plane covers the machine's own track width, which is what stops you driving over ground you have just finished. Check it against your loader before ordering.
