Some blades come with multiple adjustments, others only allow you to turn the blade from side to side. The design of the blade will determine whether or not you can angle it enough to make the cut you want to make.

I have a blade that allows me to swing the blade around, stopping at several adjustment points with the blade pointing forward and backward. It also allows me to tilt the blade to either side at various angles. The final adjustment on the blade allows me to slide the blade further to one side or the other for an offset cut. This would allow the tractor to remain on the road and still make a cut several feet off to the side. If the rental tractor you look at has the kind of blade, you're set. If not, you may not have the adjustability to make the necessary cuts.

The leveling box on the tractor allows you to angle the blade several inches which may be enough to do the job for you as well.

Check out the equipment before you rent it so see if it will do the job.
