Four new Ditch Witch compact walk-behind trenchers, the RT12, RT16, RT20, and RT24, incorporate a stacked, in-line hydraulic pump configuration that eliminates vertical shafts and the use of belts and/or flywheel reduction systems.
Four new Ditch Witch compact walk-behind trenchers, the RT12, RT16, RT20, and RT24,
incorporate a stacked, in-line hydraulic pump configuration that eliminates vertical shafts and the use of belts and/or flywheel reduction systems.
The units feature fully hydrostatic ground drives with hydraulic skid steer-style steering. Simple hand controls—one hand to mobile, two hands to trench—mean there's less operator training necessary.
Solid, adjustable trail wheels help keep the machines stable and reduce breakover when loading, unloading, and traveling over curbs and other uneven terrain.
The trail wheel gives the machines another point of leverage, beside the track undercarriage, to keep the trencher boom in the ground during operation and/or maintain down pressure when placing the boom in the ground.
The RTX250 walk-behind trencher digs to 48 inches at a width of 8 inches.
The construction-grade ST37X ride-on trencher has a 37-horsepower Tier 4 Yanmar 3TNV88C diesel engine.
