Product Overview
Description
The Mini Skid Steer PG3 Power Grader is a compact, high-performance grading attachment designed for mini skid steers and compact loaders. Built with the same carbide-tooth drum and multi-edge grading system as the full-size PG3, this unit allows operators to loosen, grade, and finish material efficiently on small job sites.
Designed for tight access work, this grader is ideal for landscaping, driveway repair, and site prep where maneuverability is critical. The carbide drum is used to break up hard-packed material, while the cutting edges are used to level and smooth, giving operators full control over each step of the grading process.
Features
- Carbide-tooth power drum pulverizes hard-packed dirt and gravel for better grading results
- Dual forward cutting edges provide controlled grading and material movement
- Rear AR400 rake edge allows back dragging and finishing in one attachment
- Adjustable mount plate controls grading depth and aggressiveness
- AR400 steel construction built for long-term wear resistance in tough conditions
- Depth control skids help maintain consistent grade across uneven surfaces
- Designed to grade, pulverize, and rake in a single pass without switching attachments
Benefits

FAQs
What does the PG3 do that a standard land plane or grader doesn’t?
The carbide drum breaks up hard-packed material before grading, giving you a smoother and more consistent finish.
Can this be used on gravel driveways?
Yes, it’s ideal for driveway repair and maintenance by loosening, leveling, and finishing in one pass.
Is this aggressive enough for hard ground?
Yes, the carbide drum is designed to break up compacted dirt and gravel that standard blades struggle with.
Do I need to make multiple passes to get a smooth finish?
In most cases, you can loosen, grade, and finish in fewer passes compared to traditional grading attachments.
How is this different from a Harley rake or power rake?
This combines grading blades and a rake edge with the drum, giving you more control over final surface finish.
Can I back drag and finish with this?
Yes, the rear rake edge allows you to back drag and smooth material after grading.
Who is this best for?
This is ideal for contractors and landscapers doing driveway repair, site prep, and gravel grading with a mini skid.
