40" mid-mount grader blade decal

Recommended Posts

Fun Engineer

I'm finishing up the restoration of a 40' mid-mount grader blade model 7-1112 and need a picture of an original Safety First decal that mounts on the blade. I removed mine before I could take a close up photo and measurements. That wont happen again.  www.redoyourhourse.com has the newer "CAUTION" decal but I'd like to do an original.  Terry is willing to add an original to his offerings if I can get pictures and measurements.  Can anyone help me out? It would be appreciated.

Here is what I know it says.

                 SAFETY FIRST FIRST

1. DO NOT "LOCK", "UNLOCK", "BLOCK" (this is unclear) BLADE WITHOUT

    QUICK HITCH LOCK PIN IN PLACE

2. KEEP KNEE CLEAR OF THE LEVER

3. DO NOT PLACE FEET ON BLADE

Here's the only picture I have.

Thanks Shynon, this is a start. I'm sure there is some difference from year to year. I agree that yours looks smaller. Wish I could read that first line on my picture. Maybe someone else will chime in.

Terry's first draft is 1 1/2 x 4 1/2 so were close to yours.  His wording is also the same as yours.

I'll take a trip to the barn in the morning and send some measurements and photos.

PS, if you don't put your feet on it they don't work as well.  :ychain:          :ROTF:

The warning decal on my 40" grader blade measures about 4 1/8" wide by 1 1/4" high. I think this will be clear enough for Terry to do his magic.Grader_blade_2.thumb.jpg.4634f6456505257

Thanks 953 nut and Shynon.

I guess I'll have him use your wording and measurements. Hopefully next time I remember to take better pictures and measurements.

Thanks bmsgaffer. Not sure what blocking the blade means.

I sent the information I received on this post and from my Facebook request to Terry at redoyourhorse.com. He will probably make this decal available at his online store for anybody with a 7–1112-6 mid-mount grader blade.

Here's the results of www.redoyourhorse.com on the Mid-mount grader blade "Safety First" decal, Wheel Horse part # 5684 and the rest of the decals. [emoji3]

Great job Terry. [emoji106]
