Weighing in at nearly 25,000 pounds, the new Ashland CS18-HD is one of the industry’s heaviest offerings in the 18-cubic-yard-capacity class of carry-all scrapers. For use with high horsepower (325+) rubber-tracked or wheeled tractors, the CS18-HD transfers a portion of the weight for greater traction. The CS18-HD’s lift cylinders are mounted high to keep dirt and rocks out, while its four tires are set away from the bowl, allowing dirt to flow through to the ground and preventing the tires from plugging or skidding.
