Dozer blade assembly
A vehicle dozer blade assembly 20 comprises a blade that is movable between a raised, stowed position and a lowered, dozing position. The blade is turnable in a first direction relative to the dozing position to a stabilising position, and turnable in a second direction to an earth anchoring position. A flat of the blade may be parallel to the ground in the stabilising position. The blade may be moved from the stowed position to a manually lowered position. The blade may be connectable to a vehicle by a boom (24, fig 7), a pair of pitch actuators (32) and a pair of lift actuators (30). The assembly may have a vehicle recovery feature, such as towing eyes (41, fig 4). A vehicle 10 with the dozer blade assembly may have a winch, which is obscured by the blade in the stowed position and accessible in the lowered position.
