What is straight frame mode used for?

Straight frame mode is specifically designed for long distance grading operations. This mode allows the grader to maintain a consistent blade position and angle, which is essential for achieving a uniform slope and surface over extended areas. The straight frame configuration aids in stability and control, enabling the operator to effectively manage larger grading tasks without having to frequently adjust the equipment. By using this mode, operators can efficiently cover significant distances, ensuring that the grading process is both effective and efficient.

In contrast, other modes might be more suitable for different tasks, such as heavy load management or operations on extreme slopes, where other features or adjustments to the grader might be more beneficial. However, for long distance grading specifically, straight frame mode offers the optimal balance of control and productivity.
