10-4 good buddies, message received loud and clear. Yes, it's the front blade and the tractor is a 1650 which btw does a heck of a job moving topsoil around. I ended up with an area packed down by the tires and I was trying to cut it back down to level it. Should have got the tiller out and loosened it up first, I guess. Thanks for the info, probably saved me from a pita goof up. As always, the forum rocks.
