a first main blade horizontally disposed on the frame so as to be separated from the metering blade by a first open distance, the rust main blade having a first blade defector disposed thereon;
a second main blade horizontally disposed on the frame so as to be separated from the first main blade by a second open distance, the second main blade having a second blade deflector disposed thereon,wherein each blade is disposed flush with the right and left skid plates such that, with the device towed over a turf surface having elevated areas and depressions, the skid plates cause the metering blade to rise above elevated areas of the turf surface.

Abstract
A turf leveling device includes a metering blade together with first and second horizontal and parallel main blades separated by first and second open distances. The blade are supported by a frame with spaced frame arms adapted to provide three point hitch attachment points. Skid plates mounted on left and right sides of the frame prevent the metering blade from scrapping or cutting elevated areas of the turf surface. The metering blade and the first and second main blades with deflectors effectively redistribute and level the gathered material. A vertically adjustable verticutting knife roller having keyed knife discs extending through slots in a grating insert is preferably disposed in the first open distance.
