The console and back seat swivel together up to 270 degrees. “It includes heat, air, pressurization, standard sound and vibration dampening, and an operator’s console like no other. “The spacious cab traverses left or right for maximum visibility,” Seabolt said. This patent-pending design also includes a float feature track to automatically tilt to adjust to changing conditions throughout a job, enabling the unit to make installations in roadside ditches and similar conditions.” Comfort, practicalityĪn obvious difference between the HT275 and other trenchers is the operator environment. “Not only does the main frame tilt to five degrees on each side to allow for vertical trenching on sloped terrain,” said Seabolt, “but each of the tracks tilts independently, working at a different angle for maximum traction on uneven terrain. The earth saw attachment can be used for excavating a ditch or pre-ripping in advance of a plow unit.Ī unique feature of the HT275 is its tilting undercarriage. An earth saw disc trencher attachment is available that digs to depths of 54 inches and widths to 14 inches.

An optional truck load conveyor can be used with the sliding trencher to streamline the job site, by simultaneously loading spoil into a truck. The sliding trencher attachment traverses from center to right and can dig to 6-foot depths and 24-inch widths, depending on boom and chain.īoom and chain options include single or double line booms, dirt bits, rock bits and multiple chain patterns for most soil conditions.Ĭenterline trencher and sliding trencher attachments are equipped with standard cross conveyor spoil systems, allowing spoils to be placed on either side of the trench. The centerline trenching attachment is capable of digging to depths of 10 feet and widths to 26 inches, depending on boom and chain. “It can do offset trenching along the side of roadways, with the sliding trencher attachment.” “The unit can do heavy duty rock trenching when equipped with a centerline attachment,” Seabolt continued.

Attachments can be changed in a few hours in the field without heavy hoists or cranes. “Purpose-built” attachments add to its versatility.
DITCH WITCH INSTALL
The HT275’s value is not limited to these specific markets, but it is well-suited for any long trenching run to install underground pipe. Primary markets are expected to be small-diameter pipeline installation and other energy-related work, such as wind farms and solar installations, “underdrain” slotted pipe adjacent to highways, and agriculture tiling installation of slotted drainage pipe to drain water from fields. “Together these features add up to increased utilization and, ultimately, greater return on investment,” said Seabolt.

Seabolt said features that set the HT275 apart from other equipment include: With its power and 70,000-plus pounds of mass, the HT275 is significantly smaller than most big track trenchers, can do jobs that smaller trenchers can’t, and is much more versatile than other trenchers of comparable size, according to Steve Seabolt, product manager for heavy duty trenchers. Ditch Witch has introduced a new 275-horsepower track trencher named the HT275.
