will a scrape blade cut a ditch? I have a 1/2 mile road in NC Mountains and I was wondering if the Scrape blade would be the tool to cut a ditch in the side of the mountain beside the road. It doesn't have to be a deep ditch just enough angle to keep the water in the ditch. The road was cut about 25 years ago with a Dozer. the mountain dirt has slowly washed and fallen down the mt and filled the ditches. We need to just drag this red clay dirt out of the ditch. I am thinking about renting a Mahindra 5500 http://www.mahindrausa.com/Products/df_PRODUCT.aspx?proid=6 with a front end loader and scrape blade. I am being told that the 3 point hitch will raise the blade up and down but not cock the blade at a angle to cut the ditch. Will a 3 point hitch angle this blade or does it take a special blade. Any advise
