BUILT FOR ACCURATE, PRODUCTIVE MILLING
Blue Diamond Cold Planers are designed to remove asphalt, concrete, and other hard compacted surfaces with controlled depth and positioning. The self-leveling system follows the working surface to help maintain a consistent cut, while independently adjustable left and right sides allow operators to compensate for uneven pavement and create accurate adjoining passes.
Hydraulic side shift provides additional reach for milling alongside curbs, walls, pavement edges, and fixed obstacles. A direct-drive hydraulic system transfers power efficiently to the milling drum while keeping the drive system straightforward and serviceable.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT COLD PLANER FOR YOUR MACHINE
Matching hydraulic flow, cutting width, and production requirements is critical when selecting a skid steer cold planer. Blue Diamond offers both low-flow and high-flow models to cover precision repair work through larger-scale pavement removal.
| Grinding Width | Type | Cutting Depth | Hydraulic Flow | Max. Pressure | Approx. Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14" | Low Flow | 4.3" | 12–21 GPM | 3,625 PSI | 1,350 lb |
| 16" | Low Flow | 5.9" | 17–30 GPM | 3,625 PSI | 1,450 lb |
| 18" | High Flow | 6.7" | 27–40 GPM | 4,500 PSI | 1,900 lb |
| 20" | High Flow | 6.7" | 27–40 GPM | 4,500 PSI | 2,000 lb |

LOW-FLOW COLD PLANERS
14" AND 16" MODELS
Low-flow models are well suited for localized pavement repair, potholes, utility cuts, strip removal, curb work, and jobs where a narrow milling path provides greater control.
With hydraulic requirements beginning at 12 GPM, these models extend cold-planer capability to a wider range of standard-flow skid steers and compact track loaders.
HIGH-FLOW COLD PLANERS
18", 20", 24", 30", 40" AND 48" MODELS
High-flow models are designed for machines with greater auxiliary hydraulic capacity and applications requiring increased milling width or production.
Choose narrower high-flow models for controlled pavement repair and trench work, or move to 30", 40", and 48" widths for higher-production resurfacing and surface-removal applications.
PRECISION WHERE THE JOB DEMANDS IT
SELF-LEVELING MILLING
The self-leveling system allows the cold planer to follow the working surface instead of relying entirely on the position of the host machine. This helps maintain a more consistent milling depth as pavement contours and machine position change.
INDEPENDENT DEPTH CONTROL
Independent left and right depth adjustment gives operators greater control when matching existing surfaces, creating transitions, or making adjoining passes. This also helps the planer compensate for surfaces that are not perfectly level.
HYDRAULIC SIDE SHIFT
Hydraulic side shift allows the cutting drum to move beyond the centerline of the skid steer or CTL, making it easier to work along curbs, walls, pavement edges, and other fixed obstacles.
8° TRANSVERSE TILT
The tilt function helps the planer follow sloped pavement and changing surface contours while improving control during transitions and edge work.
BUILT FOR DEMANDING SURFACES
Cold planing places continuous load, vibration, and abrasion on an attachment. The Extreme Duty Series 2 is designed for demanding milling and scarification work on asphalt, concrete, rock, sediment, gravel, and other hard compacted surfaces.
Direct-drive hydraulic power, replaceable cutting teeth, serviceable wear components, and rugged construction help keep the attachment productive in high-use applications.
BUILT FOR CONTRACTORS. READY FOR RENTAL.
Blue Diamond Cold Planers give contractors and rental fleets the flexibility to turn existing skid steers and compact track loaders into specialized pavement-milling machines.
Multiple cutting widths and hydraulic configurations make it easier to match the attachment to the machine and job, while precise depth, tilt, and side-shift controls give operators the versatility to handle everything from pothole repair and utility cuts to larger resurfacing projects.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a skid steer cold planer used for?
A skid steer cold planer removes controlled sections of asphalt, concrete, and other hard surfaces. Common applications include pavement resurfacing preparation, pothole repair, utility trenching, shoulder widening, drainage restoration, concrete scarification, and localized surface correction.
What grinding widths are available?
Blue Diamond Extreme Duty Series 2 Cold Planers are available in 14", 16", 18", 20", 24", 30", 40", and 48" grinding widths.
How deep can a Blue Diamond cold planer cut?
Maximum cutting depth varies by model from 4.3" to 6.7". The 18", 20", 24", and 30" models provide up to 6.7" of cutting depth.
What hydraulic flow does a skid steer cold planer require?
The Blue Diamond lineup covers hydraulic flow requirements from 12 to 50 GPM. The correct model should always be matched to the skid steer or compact track loader's available auxiliary hydraulic flow and pressure.
Can a Blue Diamond cold planer mill concrete?
Yes. Blue Diamond Cold Planers are designed for milling and scarifying hard compacted materials including asphalt and concrete.
What is the benefit of a self-leveling cold planer?
A self-leveling system helps the planer follow the working surface and maintain more consistent cutting depth as the host machine and pavement contours change.
Can the planer work next to curbs or walls?
Yes. Hydraulic side shift allows the planer to move away from the machine centerline, providing better access along curbs, walls, pavement edges, and other obstacles.
What is the difference between low-flow and high-flow cold planers?
Low-flow models work with skid steers and CTLs that have lower auxiliary hydraulic output and are well suited for narrow, localized repairs. High-flow models use greater hydraulic capacity to operate wider drums and support higher-production pavement-removal applications.
