Hey everyone,
I recently went to the shelves to see the Cat grader for sale, and, frankly speaking, it is not as easy as it looks. Listings can be found on various websites but one that is actually in good condition with good hydraulics, well maintained blade and little wear on articulation joints are hard to come by.
It is not only the cost but how to determine what is really going on behind the glossy photographs. Certain machines may appear to be flawless over the internet, but say otherwise after they are examined.
To buyers of used Cat graders, what is your best way of ensuring that you are getting a good offer? Any particular checks or red flags that you check out before purchasing?
