Jon - mid mounting the blade is the way to go for grading.
There are pictures on the TM Tractor website for both front mount and mid mount blades. They are under the implement mounting section.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Jon, BD is right a mid mount is the way to go for grading just take a little at a time don't over do and you'll get a very nice job when you finish. TM's implement scetion has some very good pictures if the setup.
I bought an old tractor all dusty and worn,
knew nothing about her just the year she was born
I washed her and greased her and painted her red
Now she lives happily right here in my shed.

Jon, If you can send me some of that rain, I'll come out with my Cub and help you grade. We normally have about 5" by now (Jan-June). Until a heavy rain last week we had accumulated less than 1/2". It's been so dry here, my wife wants to water the weeds so they'll grow enough for me to spray them! I'm sorry to hear about the damage, but maybe you can get some good seat time repairing it.

Magman...

I was in Syracuse on Wednesday at a Clam Bake at Hiderwadel's (sp?) and we got CREAMED by rain. They ended up sending us home early with a lobster in a bag... There was water EVERYWHERE... The swamp drains filled up and then the sinks started backing up...

When you guys in New York State get rain...YOU GET RAIN!!!

Hope everyone enjoys the HEAT this weekend!! Going to be 100 in La Crosse!!!
