Ditch Witch RT24 Trencher

Dec. 21, 2010

With trenching capability of 48 inches deep and 8 inches wide, the RT24 hydrostatic trencher is designed with more weight on the digging chain, which is said to put more product in the ground faster. When ground conditions get harder, the unit's chain speed can be adjusted by using a 10-tooth sprocket instead of the standard 12-tooth. It travels on high-flotation tires, but it can also be equipped with heavy-duty tracks that oscillate 12 degrees. Optional RotoWitch boring attachment is available.
