Features
| Features | Benefits |
| Quality hydraulic motor available in two volume flows | Provides long life, durable construction. Two flow options allow the trencher to fit many skid steers. |
| Reversible motor | Helps in areas where rocks may lodge and stop chain, can back out and try again. |
| Boom ball bearings are selfcontained ball bearing with triplelip seals and metal shroud covers | Boom ball bearings are protected against dirt invasion and do not require greasing. |
| Drive bearings are self-contained, single & double row ball bearings with extra heavy duty seals. | Drive bearings are protected against dirt invasion and do not require greasing. |
| Motor case drain | Reduces back pressure at motor thus delivering more power for trenching. |
| Hardened cup teeth | Increase life and productivity of the teeth. |
| High tensile strength trencher chain C | Chain stands up to rugged use. |
| Trencher chain side links | Designed for anti-flex without binding or piggybacking. |
| Full length bolts securing teeth with spacers at every station | Helps to distribute load equally on both sides of the chain. Minimizes chain wear. |
| Side shifts from center to 22" to the right | Allows the operator to get up close to buildings and fences. |
| Grease cylinder chain tightener | Makes tightening the chain easy |
| Connect under pressure hydraulic couplers | Couplers are easier to connect and disconnect. |
| Removable spoil auger | Helps dig a trench closer to fences and buildings |
| Floating crumber shoe | Improves the performance of the crumber shoe. |
| Depth indicator (Patent-pending) H | Helps the operator judge the depth of trench from the operator’s seat. |
| Numerous chain options | Plenty of options to choose from to match your local digging conditions. |
| Heavy frame construction | Stands up to rugged use. (5/16” Thick hitch plate with 3/4" reinforced bar around three sides of the bottom lock pin slots.) |
| TR48: 4' digging depth TR60: 5' digging depth | Customer can choose which trencher best suits his/her needs. |
| 221-373 fpm chain speed (Skid steer hydraulic flow and pressure ratings vary.) | Good operating speed to get the work done. |
