A GRADER ,is a
construction machine with a long blade used to create a flat surface during the
grading process. Typical models have three axles, with the engine and cab
situated above the rear axles at the end
of the vehicle and a third axle at the front end of the vehicle, with the blade
in between. In certain countries , for example in Finland, almost every grader is equipped with a second blade that is
placed in front of the front axle. Some constructional personnel refer to the entire machine as" the
blade" capacities range from a blade width of 2.50 to 7.30 m and engines
from 93-373kw (125-500hp).Certain graders can operate multiple attachments, or
be used for separate tasks like underground mining.
