Trenchers
COMPACT RIDE-ON
The Ditch Witch RT30 ride-on trencher makes installations on
tight jobsites easier thanks to its compact footprint and tight
turning radius. The trencher features a robust trencher drive
motor with large shaft for reliability, a maintenance-free pivot
design that reduces dirt and debris and a comfortable operator's seat. The machine is powered by a 24-horsepower Kubota
diesel engine and has a 42-inch boom that provides a 36-inch
cover depth, a four-way backfill blade for filling trenches and
hydrostatic ground drive with simple pedal controls for forward
and reverse. The RT30 weighs 3,150 pounds and has a transport length and width of 138.8 and 48 inches, respectively.
