Kubota L4610HSTHC what size Land Plane

[martialplumber]

I was looking at the Everything Attachments Tractor Land Leveler V2.0 - Land Plane and was wondering what size would work for my tractor.I have a couple 1/2 mile long roads to tend to and I think this would be much better suited to do the job than a box blade.Does anyone have any experience with this product?

I've got the Land Pride GS1572 (6ft) for my L4330. It's just wider than the outside of the rear wheels (good) and is quite a bit wider than 1/2 of my road width. Only 1/2 of your road width, plus 6" or so is all that's necessary. Everybody says that the heavier the better, but the modest weight GS1572 is plenty heavy to cut into my road top dressing (crusher run) even without the scarifiers down.

You will have a Much better result with a land leveler... and from what I have seen the Everything Attachments line is the best.
I use to do a about 2 miles of road driveways using rear blade, Box Blade, Adams Road Patrol and a Land Leveler... Then finally a Cat Motor Grader... By far the Cat was the Best, but the Land Leveler was the next best and very far Above the Box Blade. KennyV

The EA landplanes all look too light,, for my use.

I built one,, just because I wanted twice the weight.
EA even has a video showing them hopping around,,

How do you get a level surface if the LP hops??

As to the size... Get the one With the rippers, You will likely only find an occasional use for them, But when needed it will save you using multiple attachments... Tell the folks at EA your tractor model they will steer you toward the correct size, they know Kubota tractors.
The majority of my roadways were sandy soil with heavy rock base, but there were some areas that got into heavy clay with rock base... I went with a oversized in width LandLeveler and I never regretted getting the next size larger... If your road way is exceptionally hard to work you might want to stay with one more suited toward the recommended width. KennyV

Light? Never. Did you see the size of some of those rocks Ted was flying over?
Here's our new & improved version 2, which is even taller, deeper and heavier than the one in the videos.

I went 84" with rippers from Ted and use it on both my tractors. Now I have to say I can't rip with the B3200 but it will move plenty of CA6 around.

Depends on what you're doing with it. I only have a box blade for use with my L4610, but my medium duty 72" box is no challenge for it. For soil work, an 84" would work well, although for road maintenance I would prefer a heavier 72" blade that would better handle hard-packed gravel, dirt and rock in our unpaved road.

As far as size, it really depends on how much material you end up moving.
My tractor is 60HP, and weighs double what your Kubota does.

In this pic, I was moving so much material, I had to use 4WD,,,
it was the first attachment I have ever used that made the 'ole IH "snort"!!

The LP is 7 feet wide.
It is new, and I need to adjust the blade height, that will happen in a couple months.
Right now, I simply adjust the 3PT hitch to keep the left side up an inch.
If you look at the left runner, you can see it is not leaving a track.
The right side leaves a track an inch deep.

So, I guess, if 6 feet is as wide as your tractor, I would recommend 6 feet.
You definitely want one at least as wide as the tractor.

BUT, expect a 7 foot one to be able to stop your tractor.

There are some very good LP builds here on TBN. CADplans is one of them.

In my naïve old thoughts, I question the need for scarifiers on a properly built and used LP.

If your intent is to only use it once a year and move mountains,,,, then you probably need scarifiers.
