What Can You Use a Skid Steer Laser Grader For?
A laser grader for skid steer turns the machine you already own into a precision levelling tool. The laser control system holds a consistent grade automatically, so instead of relying on manual eye and multiple passes, you're hitting your levels first time around.
Less rework. Better material use. A cleaner finish.
The OzGrade skid steer grader attachment is well suited to:
- Paddock and irrigation levelling – consistent grades across large areas for drainage and water management
- Building and shed pad preparation – concrete sub-base work where your levels need to be exact
- Rural road and driveway grading – maintain drainage profiles between wet seasons
- Earthworks and land clearing – spread and level material efficiently across open areas
- Sporting ovals and recreational surfaces – where precise tolerances are part of the spec
If you're currently doing any of this with a standard bucket, you'll finish faster and with a more consistent result using the OzGrade.
Why Choose OzGrade?
Parts You Can Source Anywhere
Most imported laser graders look fine on paper, until something wears out. Then you're waiting weeks for components to arrive from overseas.
The OzGrade is built differently. As part of our broader
metal fabrication for the agricultural industry, every machine we make uses standard, readily available parts. If something needs attention, you can source it locally without tracking down an overseas distributor.
That matters when you're on a rural property in regional NSW and the nearest large dealer is already a long drive away.
Heavy-Duty
as Standard
There's no lite version of the OzGrade. It's built to the same standard as everything else that comes out of our Walgett workshop: heavy steel, structural welds, designed to work hard and keep working.
For grading work, that means the skid steer grader attachment handles the abrasive conditions and long hours that would wear out a lighter-built unit well before its time.
Ready for Machine
Control
The OzGrade ships with proportional valves fitted and ready for 2D laser control. Connect your laser receiver setup and you're working. It's compatible with standard rotary laser systems used across the industry, you're not locked into a proprietary control package.
If you want to move to a more advanced 3D GPS setup down the line, the OzGrade is designed to accommodate that too.

OzGrade Skid Steer Laser Grader: Frequently Asked Questions
What skid steers is the OzGrade compatible with?
The OzGrade is designed to work with standard skid steer loaders. When you call us, we'll confirm compatibility with your specific machine before anything is ordered. If you've got the make and model handy, that conversation takes two minutes.
Does the OzGrade come with a laser control system?
The OzGrade ships ready to take machine control, proportional valves are fitted as standard. The laser transmitter and receiver setup is separate, as most operators already have a preferred system or want to choose their own. If you need guidance on what works well with the OzGrade, we're happy to talk through options.
Can I use my existing machine control system with the OzGrade?
Yes. The OzGrade is compatible with standard 2D rotary laser control systems used across the industry. If you're running a more advanced 3D GPS setup, talk to us – we can advise on what's needed to get the two working together.
How is the OzGrade different from imported laser graders?
The main difference is parts availability. Imported laser graders can work well, but when something wears out or breaks, you're often waiting on components from overseas. The OzGrade is built from standard, readily available parts you can source locally – which matters when you're in regional Australia and need to keep things moving. It's also built here, by people who understand what Australian conditions actually demand from equipment.
What's the lead time on an OzGrade?
It depends on where we're at with current orders. Call us directly on 0427 281 527 and we'll give you a straight answer on timing. If your situation is time-sensitive, let us know and we'll do what we can.
Can you build a custom size or configuration?
Possibly. We handle custom steel fabrication work alongside our standard range, so if the OzGrade's standard spec doesn't suit your setup, it's worth a conversation. Bring us what you need and we'll tell you what's achievable.
Do you service or repair laser graders you didn't manufacture?
Yes. Our workshop handles repairs and servicing on agricultural machinery we didn't build. If your current skid steer laser grader needs attention, get in touch and we'll tell you what we can do.
