I thought they came with the side shifter model BD4271 with the foot pedal release. I know the 64 604 we had had the plow you pictured with the 702. Maybe they used both and was a buyer's choice?

Handy Don 15,739 #104 Posted 4 hours ago (edited) ’63 Blade was the last model with the foot-pedal release for rotation and the last time the quadrant was open at the top with close-spaced holes for three positions. Also first time trip springs had cast iron end-pieces. Blade Dozer 42in 1963 BD-4263 newer.pdf Starting in ’64, quadrant was enclosed (top and bottom) with handgrip actuated rotation release. Blade Dozer 42in 1964 BD-4264.pdf ’63 also last to have welded-on skid holders Edited 1 hour ago by Handy Don 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s a ’64 or later plow (enclosed quadrant, handgrip rotation release) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
