Highlights
Ideal For
- Gravel Driveway Maintenance: The most efficient tool for restoring gravel driveways; it cuts down high spots and fills in potholes in a single pass without the "washboard" effect of a bucket.
-
Site Grading & Leveling: Perfect for general contractors preparing a job site for sod or seed. It smooths out ruts and bumps to create a perfectly flat finish.
- Backfilling Trenches: Uses the rear cutting edge to drag loose soil back into open trenches, leaving a smooth, finished surface behind you.
- Breaking Up Hardpack: The heavy steel design allows the unit to bite into hard-packed dirt and gravel, loosening material for re-grading.
'Need to Knows'
- Dual-Action Grading: Designed to work forward and backward. As you push or drag the plane, it accumulates material from high points and automatically deposits it into low points, leveling the ground effortlessly.
- Heavy-Duty Frame: Unlike light-duty drags that bounce over hard ground, this unit is built with 3″ x 3″ square steel tubing and a 3/8” thick frame. The added weight keeps the plane planted for a consistent cut.
- Aggressive Cutting Edge: Equipped with a 1/2” thick x 4″ wide cutting edge that shears through compacted soil and roots rather than just floating over them.
- Visibility: The open-frame design gives the operator excellent visibility of the ground engagement point, allowing for precise adjustments near curbs, sidewalks, and buildings.
- Simple Operation: Requires no hydraulics or complex controls—just hook up and drive. It turns a novice operator into a professional grader.
Warranty & Specs
- Standard Width: Comes in a 49″ width, perfectly sized to cover the tracks of most mini skid steers while remaining maneuverable in tight spaces. (Custom sizes available upon request).
- Steel Construction: Fabricated entirely from structural steel with a powder-coated finish to resist rust and abrasion from gravel and sand.
- Mount Compatibility: Available with mounts for Toro Dingo (Mini-Universal) and Bobcat MT series (MT50/MT52/MT55/MT85/MT100).

Product Info
Loflin Mini Skid Steer Land Plane
Stop Fighting the Washboard and Start Grading Flat

Trying to grade a gravel driveway or level a job site with a standard bucket usually leaves you with a washboard mess and a lot of wasted time. The Loflin Mini Skid Steer Land Plane solves this by acting like a heavy-duty grooming tool, cutting down the high spots and carrying that material forward to fill in the potholes automatically. You get a perfectly level, professional finish in a fraction of the time it takes to back-drag with a bucket.
Most light-duty drags just bounce over hard-packed ground, doing little more than scratching the surface. This unit is built from heavy 3″ x 3″ square steel tubing and a 3/8” thick frame, providing the weight needed to keep the plane planted. It bites into the ground instead of floating over it, ensuring you are actually moving dirt with every pass.
To cut through compacted gravel and clay, you need a serious edge, not a thin strip of metal. Loflin equips this plane with a rugged 1/2” thick x 4″ wide cutting edge that shears through roots and hardpack. This aggressive design allows you to reclaim gravel that has been pushed into the mud, saving you the cost of bringing in new material.
One of the biggest advantages of this tool is its simplicity; there are no hydraulic hoses to hook up or cylinders to leak. You simply attach it to your machine and drive, letting the rigid structure do the work for you. The durable powder-coated finish protects the steel from the abrasion of sliding over sand and stone, keeping rust at bay.
Visibility is key when you are working up against a garage door or a sidewalk. The open-frame design gives you a clear view of exactly where the cutting edge is engaging the ground. This allows you to grade tight to obstacles without worrying about hitting them, making it ideal for residential prep work.
We offer this attachment in a standard 49″ width, which is perfectly sized to cover the tracks of most mini loaders while staying narrow enough for tight gates. Whether you have a Toro Dingo or a Bobcat MT series machine, the Loflin Mini Skid Steer Land Plane turns your compact loader into a finish-grading machine.
