I used my new Bison blade (hydraulic angle NVHA-240)for the first time with the recent snow. It has skid shoes and I'm using it on a dirt driveway until I get gravel down in the spring. My question is about rutting. The blade essentially bounced or skidded creating shallow ruts. I assume that's due to the angle. I changed the height of the skid shoes to various heights but found no distinct change. If it's the angle, do I want to increase or decrease it? If not the angle, what ideas?
