Used Changlin 717T Motor Grader 17 Ton Articulated Hydraulic Blade Diesel Engine Road Grading Equipment

Machine Overview

The Changlin 717T motor grader is a versatile earthmoving machine engineered for precision surface finishing across road construction, maintenance, and infrastructure development applications. Powered by a Weichai WD10G220E23 diesel engine producing 162 kW / 220 HP, this grader delivers consistent power for blade work, scarifying, ditching, and slope cutting operations. The articulated frame design with ±25° steering angle provides tight turning radius and excellent maneuverability, while the 360° rotating moldboard blade enables grading on slopes, in ditches, and around obstacles.

This pre-owned unit has completed our comprehensive multi-point inspection covering engine performance verification, transmission shift quality testing, hydraulic system pressure and flow measurement, blade control circuit function check, articulation joint wear assessment, circle rotation mechanism inspection, brake system evaluation, and complete operational testing. Service documentation is available for buyer review, confirming proper maintenance history and current operational readiness.

Key Features

• Articulated Frame: ±25° articulation angle combined with front wheel lean enables tight turning radius and crab steering for working adjacent to curbs and barriers
• 360° Rotating Moldboard: Fully rotating blade with hydraulic side shift and tilt provides versatile grading angles for ditching, slope cutting, shoulder work, and flat grading
• Powershift Transmission: Hangchi 6-Speed Powershift with torque converter provides smooth on-the-go shifting under load for productive grading cycles
• Balanced Weight Distribution: Optimized axle weight balance ensures consistent blade down-pressure for uniform material cutting and spreading across the full blade width
• Blade Control System: Hydraulic controls with fine-metering valves provide precise blade positioning for achieving tight grade tolerances required in finish grading
• Operator Station: ROPS-certified cab with panoramic visibility to blade and tires, adjustable seat, climate control, and ergonomic control layout reducing operator fatigue during long shifts
• Service Design: Ground-level daily check points, swing-out cooler package for cleaning access, centralized grease banks, and easily accessible filters minimize maintenance time
