What size box blade for ck3510

[ironhayden86]

Not sure what size box blade to get a 66" or 72" from ea attachments. I have a 72" land plane I was thinking the 66" so it would be more compact unit I have r4 tires as well.

I vote 66”

I just got a 60" with my ck3510se. I was debating bigger, but after talking to some friends and neighbors, I went with the 60. I think it was a wise decision for the soil conditions here. I didn't get to use the box blade much this summer, but the little I did, I found I'd lose traction somewhat easily, especially with the rippers set down low. There's lots of rock here, and even with loaded tires, the tractor just isn't heavy enough to do deep cuts. If your ground is less rocky, you might be ok with a larger blade, but I'd try to talk to someone local with a similar sized machine, and see what their experience has been.

You always want a box blade at least as wide as your tractor or a little wider. How much wider(66" vs 72") really depends on how maneuverable you need it to be.
People tend to go narrow if they have tight areas to fit in.
People tend to go wide if they want to grade up next to something...trees/house/wall...without running the tractor right up next to it.

The Xtreme Duty Compact Box Blade is a nice fit for your tractor.

Our Xtreme Duty 30-70 is a step up in weight, so they're really popular with CK/DK owners!

Do you have R1 or R4 tires?

If you want to get the rippers engaged with a single pull of a bar, I would consider a 65"ROBB. I little heavier unit than most and a dream to work with. :thumbsup:

Thanks guy I ended up getting a ea atachments 66 box blade for the SD compact model.

That looks very nice. I think it's Jeff who also posts pics of a similar style rollover. Every time I see pics of them makes me wish I had at least checked into that type before getting a typical one.

They really do work well. I opted for them over the hydraulic units. Each type, like everything have their positive and negative aspects.

That pic with the blue tractor - wow that's cutting nicely! Mine won't do that even weighted down @ 1,000 lbs total. Of course could me my high rock content & red clay.... But still, a cut that deep mine's either gonna want to skim or try to bury itself cutting down as it goes. No in between on somewhat moist soil like that for me.

Are those rippers fixed or can you still adjust each ones individual height on that kind?

Also....back on topic and to OP's questions....I think I'd go with a 5' for a CK3510. EA would know better I guess, but with fairly larger tires & a decent amount more weight, I can still anchor mine @ 72". I think a CK would be a little worse about that @ 66". Of course if just spreading or taking care of a gravel road, it wouldn't matter.
