An improved system and method for controlling turf grading equipment is described. The system comprises a turf grading device wherein the turf grading device is moved longitudinally over an area and the turf grading device comprises a left side and a right side with each side being able to independently move vertically and in concert provide a motion of pitch and yaw. The system includes a control system wherein the control system controls movement of the left side and the right side independently. The control system comprises a controller interface capable of selecting between a manual override mode and a module selection mode wherein the module selection mode selected from a grade adjust laser mode, a grade adjust autograde mode, a grade adjust autodepth mode and a grade adjust slope mode

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for controlling a work implement (e.g., front-mounted blade) relative to a work vehicle to produce a desired profile in a ground surface. Chassis-mounted sensor(s) detect an actual pitch velocity and an actual pitch angle of the chassis relative to the ground. Further sensor(s) detect an actual lift position of the blade relative to the chassis. A desired profile to be produced by the blade with respect to the ground surface is determined, for example via an automated grade control system, via manually-initiated trigger(s), and/or via time-based rolling averages of detected values. A position of the implement is automatically controlled as a function of each of the actual pitch velocity, the actual pitch angle of the chassis relative to the ground, and the actual lift position of the work implement relative to the chassis, corresponding to the desired profile with respect to the ground surface.

Systems and devices for use in executing a tree felling operation are disclosed. A tree felling blade for use in connection with a tree felling operation includes a leading cutter comprising a leading cutter point and a leading transverse cutting blade. The tree felling blade includes a trailing cutter comprising a trailing cutter point and a trailing transverse cutting blade. The tree felling blade comprises a roller portion comprising a concave curvature, wherein the roller portion is connected to the leading cutter and the trailing cutter.

In some implementations, an implement control system includes an operator control configured for manipulation in one or more motions and a controller. The controller may be configured to, based on a particular motion of the one or more motions, cause actuation of one or more first actuators, configured to selectively raise or lower a first lateral side of a work implement of a machine, and one or more second actuators, configured to selectively raise or lower a second lateral side of the work implement, in tandem. The one or more first actuators and the one or more second actuators may be controlled by independent control systems.

A box scraper assembly includes a box scraper that is attachable to a tractor for scraping dirt. A plurality of teeth is each movably disposed in the box scraper to dig into the dirt when the box scraper is drawn along the ground. Each of teeth is adjustable between minimum height and a maximum height. An adjustment unit is movably integrated into the box scraper and the adjustment unit is in mechanical communication with each of the teeth. The adjustment unit adjusts each of the teeth between the minimum height and the maximum height. Furthermore, the adjustment unit is in communication with a control on the tractor for actuating the adjustment unit to adjust the teeth between the minimum height and the maximum height.

A frame assembly for supporting an implement on a vehicle includes a support frame attachable to the vehicle, a lever pivotable about a first axis between first and second positions, and a biasing assembly connecting the lever to the support frame. A first end of the biasing assembly is supported against the lever to pivot about a second pivot axis being parallel to the first pivot axis and being vertically spaced relative to the first pivot axis when the support frame is removably attached to the vehicle and the lever is in the first position. A second end of the biasing assembly is supported against the support frame to pivot about a third pivot axis when the lever pivots about the first pivot axis. The third pivot axis is parallel to and is spaced from the first pivot axis when the support frame is removably attached to the vehicle.

The present technology generally relates to an auto-release cable management assembly for operating a work implement mountable to an implement mounting assembly of a vehicle, the auto-release cable management assembly comprising: a mounting structure connectable to the implement mounting assembly; the mounting structure forming a first underside guide surface for guiding a retractable cable operatively connectable to the vehicle; a hook connected to the mounting structure and suitable for retaining the retractable cable; a gate structured and positioned with respect to the hook to be movable between an open position in which the hook is accessible to the retractable cable, and a closed position in which the hook is inaccessible to the retractable cable; and a guide forming a second underside guide surface for guiding the retractable cable towards the hook and the gate.

An excavator coupling system for coupling a trailer hitch device to a dozer blade of an excavator. The excavator coupling system includes a keyhole component disposed on a front surface of the dozer blade of the excavator and a key component coupled with the trailer hitch device. The keyhole and key components are designed to forming a positive connection to couple the trailer hitch device to the dozer blade. The keyhole component is on the front of the dozer blade and provide for coupling the trailer hitch device to the dozer blade without accessing a rear portion of the dozer blade.

A work machine includes a work implement. A control system for the work machine includes a controller. The controller acquires cliff position data. The cliff position data indicates a position of a cliff included in an actual topography of a work site. The controller determines a target design topography located below the actual topography. The controller determines an end position of work by the work implement from the cliff position data. The controller generates a command signal to move a work implement according to the end position and the target design topography.

A connection system for coupling a working assembly to a work vehicle includes a frame having a mounting portion at a first longitudinal end of the frame. The mounting portion is configured to directly couple to a frame of the work vehicle. The connection assembly also includes a mounting assembly at a second longitudinal end of the frame of the connection system. Additionally, the connection system includes a receiver assembly movably coupled to the frame of the connection system. The receiver assembly is configured to rotate about a point of rotation positioned along the frame of the connection system. The receiver assembly is configured to couple to a connector assembly on an arm of the work vehicle. A top part of the receiver assembly is substantially longitudinally aligned with the point of rotation while the receiver assembly is in a receiving position.
