The PD-BLACK machine is the finest high performance grading system of any kind. While it is a complex and highly accurate system, it is simple to use and even the most inexperienced operators can enjoy professional grading results. The PD-BLACK machine is built tough to withstand the most rigorous of conditions and has a greatly increased high power tilt action to allow the unit to cut even highly compacted surfaces to the required grades effectively. Uniform and consistent grades are easily achieved with unmatched speed and accuracy.
High performance features include grease-free composite bushings, reversible cutting edges, urethane filled tyres on highway wheel bearings for extended service life and minimal down time. The anti-clog hinged blade system, with forward and reverse blades, allows the active blade to cut and the trailing blade to float without restriction. The trailing blade also provides a secondary screed effect leaving a ‘dining table’ finish.
Automatic machine control system types include GPS, UTS and Laser Guidance as fully developed options, available on all Level Best machines, with factory made harnesses and in-cab controllers to suit your machine. The in-cab controllers include a manual-override lift/tilt joystick and a remote offset option to adjust the ‘on grade’ point of the receivers up or down in millimetres. This is a very handy feature allowing the operator to make height adjustment offsets on-the-run without leaving the cab.

TESTIMONIALS
“The time a Level-Best saves you on site is unbelievable. I recently moved approx 250 ton of roadbase in about 5 hours, spread it over a 3000m2 area, I was within a few mm over the whole area once it was rolled and trimmed.” Greg Buxton Excavations, Hunter Valley NSW
“The Level-Best is such an excellent bit of gear. I’ve heard people say that they wont cut material but I’ve quickly proved them wrong. It will cut pads and its great in that it makes pricing so much easier. I love the fact your jobs go in so accurately when you prep your sub-grade, your sub-base and your base-course. Jobs that would previously take days can now be done in hours. There is just no guess work. Once its set up, you just sit there and drive and let the machine do the work.” Gav Moore, M&M Equipment, Hunter Valley NSW
“Our whole business now revolves around the Level-Best. I don’t know how we managed without it” Nick Wortley, Victoria
“I just had to ring to say that our new dual axis Level-Best has exceeded all expectations.” Bob Wortley, Victoria
“This attachment is the best thing that we have ever used and I cant believe we were in business without one… Our productivity has greatly increased and we look forward to the benefits this set up will bring, with its speed and accuracy like nothing we’ve seen before.” Dave Hough, Canyonleigh NSW
