A JUST RIGHT FOR EVERY USE SLOPE-METER NO. 1 Used for all slope and crown construction. The figures represent slope. For instance, when the indicator ball is over number “8”, it indicates an “8-to-1” slope. The small triangles represent degrees, for reference purposes. Slope-Meter No. 1 is widely used on motorgraders, bull-dozers and similar equipment. SLOPE-METER NO. 2 Slope-Meter No. 2 is calibrated in hundred .01-.16. A major use is on crown work, but it is also used to determine “percent of grade”.

FASTER, BETTER WORK ON CROWNS AND SLOPES With Motor Grader Scraper Cutting Back Slopes A motor grader working on a “6-to-1” back slope may be used either to true or finish the slope, or to spread topsoil in a uniform layer. The Slope-Meter can be mounted any convenient place on a scraper, that maintains a fixed “side-tilt” relationship with the cutting edge. The Slope-Meter will indicate true slope as long as the blade clears the entire surface on which the back wheels travel.

Equipment Leveling and Signing Curves APPLICATION When Slope-Meter is correctly installed on a motor grader or other machines, it will accurately and continuously indicate the slope of the ground being graded. This accurate indication of slopes between surveyor’s stakes is very helpful, as it enables operators to construct true slopes without waves. With a Slope-Meter on each of your machines, you can be sure you will not move more yards of dirt than you will be paid for.
