Features
Heavy-Duty Planetary Drive

The trencher features a heavy-duty planetary-drive design, leveraging more hydraulic horsepower from high-flow hydraulics. This design is optimal for high-duty cycles in commercial and heavy construction applications, offering robust performance.
Trencher Chain Options

The trencher comes with varied chain options suitable for different digging conditions. The "standard cup every station" chain is designed for moderately compacted soils, while the 70/30 combination shark tooth chain is for heavier-duty applications like rocky soils.
Convenient Two-Position Manual Side Shift

Equipped with a two-position manual side shift, the trencher can trench close to structures. This feature enhances functionality and adaptability on commercial construction sites, allowing for precision trenching in tight spaces.
