To allow grading on banks up to 90° an optional rotating
saddle is available. A hydraulically operated lock pin

released the saddle rotates, allowing the circle and
moldboard to pivot for side grading.
Five positions are available with the center position used
for most types of work. For grading up to a 90° bank, the
saddle should be rotated to the farthest hole

the blade and circle to hang from the side of the frame.

The hole and pin on the saddle are not self-
aligning. Manipulate the blade to rotate the saddle
and allow pin to seat properly.
