super6 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Some pictures of blade. Sorry no dimensions as not in my front garden, but there is a golf ball stuck between two pieces of metal on the cross bracing of the frame, last picture of this bunch, to give you some idea of the physical size. This was fitted to a 1124 Underside from left View of left side. The rectangular plate attached to side of blade is not part of the original dozer blade Pin that holds blade to frame. I do not think that the blade can be adjusted/tilted from side to side as there are no more holes for pins to go in to allow any adjustment Two more to follow...............

super6 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Not a great picture, below, but does give you some idea of the blade construction, I think. Oh and it's upside down again Tractor bracket and ram, nearside Tractor bracket and ram, offside Can do more and better pictures of tractor brackets, with any dimensions you require, as this is in my front garden at the mo' To follow............................ I should imagine that the tractor bracket for the four cylinder models was/is very similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick a Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 blenhiem estates use to have county 1124 with a bomford sapper snow blade like that, in summer they adapted a puhoff buck rake for the subframe for on the clamp. if the clamp was well rolled the county could climb nearly vertical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super6 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Offside bracket first. This has the hydraulic distribution block mounted to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super6 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Controls. Pipe work connected to this at moment have nothing to do with the blade as they head to the back of the tractor and have quick couplings attached to the ends In this picture (below)you can just about see the hoses from the mounting bracket, below the grey area. I do not know which way round they are supposed to be connected. It may not even matter. Not very tidy around the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super6 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Nearside bracket. Rear fixings pick up on the four nuts and bolts that secure the front axle support to the side bearer plates. The front part of the bracket is secured by studs and nuts to the four taped holes in the tombstone casting. The rear two being recessed to allow for clearance of the ram You can just see the two rear fixings on the tombstone to the right of the ram (below) The triangle of nuts/studs are where the side bearer plate is bolted to the front end of the sump. The hole below this is the pin hole for the back part of the dozer blade, to hinge on. It is slightly proud of the surrounding metal. The rear part of the bracket overlaps the front part as can just be seen here (below) and also in picture above, to right of ram. Overlapping and recessed studs/nuts behind ram Overlapping, viewed from above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super6 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Control lever The two pipes with silver coloured ends are where the dozer ram supply/return pipework would be connected. I will have to check the location/destination for the other two pipes as seen in top picture, too dark now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
