A reciprocating type of bulldozer blade which blade is mounted on a telescoping member for telescoping engagement with a support arm carried on the bulldozer proper, the improvement including a flywheel disposed on a powered shaft which is rotated, the rotating powered shaft operatively connected to a bulldozer blade through a cam system to provide reciprocal movement of the blade in response to powered shaft rotation. The flywheel provides a more uniform shaft rotation and therefore a greater force on the bulldozer blade as it cycles back and forth. In addition, the relatively telescoping support parts for the blade have provided thereon a supporting instrumentality connected to a stationary portion of the telescoping assembly, and a cylinder having a spring device on the moving reciprocatory part, a shaft extending therebetween so that in combination with the flywheel, additional force is provided on the bulldozer blade by cyclically loading and unloading the spring, which works against the shaft.
