Russell Mogul Road Machine-12 Foot Blade-Weight 7300 lbs.
For high-power tractors we recommend the Mogul. It will produce the best results
with a tractor of 25 H. P. and up. We advise the purchase of the largest machine
that available power will handle.
Here Is What a County Road Commissioner Said:
"I have built one mile of road in ten hours using a Russell Mogul Grader and consider it the strongest
grader 1 have ever seen, and when pulled by engine has a greater capacity for road work of anything in my
experience.'-WILLARD SNOW.
