Sheepsfoot roller for CUT? Pic

Slacker · Apr 6, 2011

I've got two sets of remotes, flow is around 8.5GPM. Has anyone ever seen a vibrating roller attachment for a CUT? Building a dam in 12" lifts, it sure would be handy to rent one.

The Bobcat vibratory roller requires 20 gpm for the smaller units. You don't have the optimum flow. The smaller rollers also weigh 1800 lbs. Can your CUT handle the weight? I would just load down your CUT with dirt in the bucket and heavy rear attachment and just pack it as you build the dam.

If you have universal skid steer mount you could look at an American Compaction wheel. They don't use hydraulics, but compact very well. Compaction Wheels, Skid Steer Wheels, Excavator Wheels, American Compaction Equipment, Inc.

12" lifts? That's too thick.

6" lifts would be much better.

You can pack it with heavily loaded tractor tires. Fill your loader bucket and tote a round bale on the back and just drive back and forth.
