SCRAPER
•Unique machine for digging and long-distance
hauling of plough able materials.
• self-operating machine
• It is not dependent on other equipment.
• Wheels of machine cause some compaction.
• The basic parts of scrapers are the bowl, apron
and tail gate or ejector.

BULL DOZERThe heavy blade attached to the tractor pushes the material from one place to another.The tractor can be of the crawler or the wheeled type.
Classification of bull dozer
1. Position of bladesA. Bull dozers in which the blade perpendicular to the
direction of movementB. Angle dozers in which the blade is set at an angle with the
direction of movement.

2. Based on mountings A. Wheel mounted B. Crawler mounted
3. Based on the control C. Cable controlled D. Hydraulically controlled

Applications
Bull dozers are mainly used for the following Operations
1. For spreading the earth fill2. For opening up pilot roads through mountainous and rocky terrains.3. Clearing construction sites.4. Maintaining haul roads5. Clearing land from the trees and stumps.6. back-filling trenches at construction sites by dragging the earth from one place to another

Tractor Multi-purpose machines used mainly for pulling and pushing the other equipment.
Tractors may be classified as a) Crawler type tractor- Used to move bull dozers, scrapers.
The crawler has a chain by which these tractors can be very effective even in the case of loose or muddy soils. The speed of this type dose not exceed 12 kmph normally.
b) Wheel type tractor- The engine is mounted on four wheels. The main advantage is higher speed, sometimes exceeding 50 kmph it is used for long-distance hauling and good roads.
