need to move dirt with 300 utility

Posted by Ken in Pa. on January 14, 2005 at 15:31:18 from (66.187.167.135):

This coming spring,I need to "skim" a lot of dirt(with thick grass growing on the top)and move it about 30 feet to fill in a ditch. Now here my idea, tell me what you think. I have 3 point adapters for my fast hitch.So I'm thinking of using eather a 3 point scraper box blade or a 3 point scoop. If I use the scoop will it break through the grass (puuling forward) and will my fast hitch lift it up high enough to dump it? If I use the scraper box after pulling the dirt forward and the box is full than what do I do, just lift the box up a little so as not to scrap anymore dirt( but not high enough to lose the dirt in the box, can this be done?) till I get close to the ditch, than lift it up completely and then come back around and use the back of the scraper box and push the dirt into the ditch? Thanks for the help guys!
