In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure a circle drawbar for a motor grader has a drawbar frame having two elongated members, and a circle frame that has a surface defined by an inner and outer diameter. The circle frame has a circle gear located radially inward of the inner diameter, allowing the circle frame to rotatable relative to the drawbar frame around an axis of the circle gear. A platform having a top, bottom, and an edge depends from the drawbar frame and covers the circle gear. A debris remover is connected to the platform and removes debris from surface of the circle frame as the circle frame rotates.

Work machines including automatic grading features and functions. One exemplary embodiment is a work machine including a chassis, ground contacting members rotatably coupled with the chassis and an actuator coupled with the chassis. A pole assembly extends above the chassis. A receiver is coupled with the pole assembly and structured to detect a wireless signal. An electronic controller is in operative communication with the receiver and the actuator, the electronic controller structured to adjust an actuator in response to a wireless signal detected by the receiver. The actuator is adjustable to vary position of the receiver and to vary position of a grading tool assembly coupled with a suspension.

A sealing assembly for a circle member of a motor grader is provided. The sealing assembly includes a plurality of cover segments disposed adjacent to an inner circumference of the circle member. At least one of the plurality of cover segments defines a gap in association with a component disposed adjacent to the at least one of the plurality of cover segments. The sealing assembly also includes a sealing element removably disposed on the at least one of the plurality of cover segments and extending into the gap. The sealing element is adapted to sealingly engage each of the at least one of the plurality of cover segments and the component.

A work vehicle includes an axle frame extending in a left-right direction, a cylinder coupled to the axle frame, and a first supply conduit connected to the cylinder and configured to supply hydraulic fluid to the cylinder. The first supply conduit is fixed to the axle frame.

A road grading blade teeth removal apparatus operable to provide removal of teeth from a road grader blade. The apparatus of the present invention includes a frame having an upper end and a lower end. The upper end of the frame has a pair of upper spring mounts secured thereto on opposing sides of the frame. The upper spring mounts have springs suspended downward therefrom and are operably coupled to a pair of lower spring mounts that are axially aligned with each of the upper springs mounts on opposing sides of the frame. A center force plate is secured intermediate the lower spring mounts and has a movement member superposed thereon. The movement member is further operably coupled to a cross member proximate the top of the frame and is configured to leverage thereagainst to move the center force plate downward. A pin assembly is located underneath the mounting plate.
