TCI 747 MOTOR GRADERS

Technical Description

The 1987 TCI 747 Motor Grader is a compact earthmoving machine powered by an Isuzu engine delivering 60 horsepower, making it suitable for light to medium-duty grading operations. The machine features a 10-foot moldboard for material spreading and finishing work, complemented by a 7-foot front push blade for additional material movement capability. The 7-tine ripper attachment enables soil breaking and loosening for various ground preparation tasks. Equipped with shuttle shift transmission technology, the grader allows operators to quickly change direction between forward and reverse without requiring throttle manipulation or use of the inching pedal, thereby improving operational efficiency and reducing cycle times. The articulating frame provides enhanced maneuverability in confined spaces and complex terrain, while wheel tilt functionality offers improved blade control and pressure distribution. With an operating weight of 10,200 pounds, the machine maintains a relatively compact footprint suitable for smaller job sites and applications. The unit shows 4,362 hours of operation and includes practical amenities such as an enclosed cab with heating for operator comfort. This grader configuration is ideal for road maintenance, site preparation, land leveling, and similar construction applications where precision grading and efficient directional changes are required.
