Before you buy
- John Deere 5045E is utility class — more frame mass and lift than compacts, but implement sheets and PTO still govern the buy.
- Verified hitch: Category II. Implements must name that class explicitly — adapters do not add lift.
- Verified PTO rating: 37 PTO HP. Size PTO implements from this number — not from engine HP.
- Catalog rear lift: 3,192 lb @ 24″. Heavier box blade tools need headroom over shipping weight (we screen with ~20% margin).
- None of the curated box blade classes clear hitch/PTO/lift on paper — try a narrower tool, a hitch-rated variant, or a larger tractor.
- Next step: open the Fit checker with John Deere 5045E and a specific box blade model, or read the fit guide for this implement type.
What Fit checks for this implement type
Box blades (box scrapers) are usually non-PTO grading tools. Fit centers on hitch category and rear lift capacity — plus ballast when you work on grades.
What usually fails first
Lift and hitch class, not PTO. A blade that pins can still overload a light sub-compact on a crowned driveway. Watch shipping weight versus lift at 24 inches.
How to use this hub
Use the curated weights and hitch lists below, then Fit-check your tractor. OEM sheets and tire ballast still decide real-world grading.

On the John Deere 5045E, none of the 11 curated box blade classes clear hitch/PTO/lift on paper — usually hitch category (e.g. 60″ box blade (compact class)). Try a narrower tool or a larger tractor class.
