Abstract: A concrete buggy operator protector consisting of a “U” bracket having a rearward end, a left arm, and a right arm, the left and right arms each having a forward end, the rearward end of the “U” bracket in combination with the left and right arms defining an operator protection space; cowl mounting slip pins fixedly attached to the forward ends of the left and right arms of the “U” bracket; an impact column fixedly attached to and extending downwardly from the rearward end of the “U” bracket; and a step mounting slip pin fixedly attached to a lower end of the impact column.

Abstract: A screed consisting of a screeding implement suspension frame; a first screeding implement having a first grading blade attached to a forward end of the screeding implement suspension frame so that a lower end of the first grading blade extends downwardly to a first elevation; a second screeding implement attached to the screeding implement suspension frame rearwardly from the first grading blade so that a lower end of the second screeding implement extends downwardly to a second elevation below the first elevation; a second grading blade; and spirally threaded nuts and bolts removably attaching the second grading blade to the first grading blade so that the lower end of the second grading blade extends downwardly below the second elevation; a third screeding implement attached to the screeding implement suspension frame rearwardly of the second screeding implement.
