Graders For Sale in Namibia
What is a Grader?
A grader, also commonly referred to as a road grader, motor grader, or simply a blade, is a form of heavy equipment with a long blade used to create a flat surface during grading. Although the earliest models were towed behind horses, and later tractors, most modern graders are self-propelled and thus technically “motor graders”.

What is the application of grader?
Graders are commonly used in the construction and maintenance of dirt and gravel roads. In constructing paved roads, they prepare a wide flat base course for the final road surface. Graders are also used to set native soil or gravel foundation pads to finish grade before the construction of large buildings.
What is the difference between grader and dozer?
Motor graders can even be used to move small amount of materials like dirt etc., but they cannot move large or heavy loads unlike the bulldozers. This is majorly due to the physical size and the blade location of motor grader which makes it unsuitable for moving heavy materials.

How many levers are in a grader?
In the left section of our control panel, we have at least 4 levers with two levels of freedom up and down without counting the neutral position of the same that is in the central position. Up: Lower the blade on the left side. Down: Lift the blade on the left side.

The first documented grader of this type was invented in 1885 by Joseph D. Adams, in Indianapolis. Named the “Little Wonder”, it made use of the leaning wheel principle, with two wooden wheels that could be angled to the side.
