VERMEER PTX40 SERVICE PLOW
WITH FORWARD-MOUNTED TRENCHER
The Vermeer PTX40 service plow with an optional forward-mounted
trencher and boring attachment was designed primarily for irriga-
tion and utility installations. The PTX40's walk-beside design helps
contractors work in areas other machines would struggle to access.
It has a minimum width of 40.2 inches and is 84.8 inches long. The
center-articulated PTX40 oscillates at the point of articulation, offering
maneuverability and performance on uneven terrain and in narrow
spaces. Operators can use a remote control for flexibility in congested
areas. The plow has a maximum depth of 24 inches, and the trencher
cuts a maximum of 42 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches wide. Plowing
and trenching performance is optimized with an electronic control that
allows for convenient setting of the creep speed. A 46.8-hp. Kubota
WG1605 gasoline engine powers the PTX40.

The W.E. Trim Bag fits on the handlebars on many different types of
equipment, including all 18- to 26-inch walk-behind mowers, small and
large garden tillers, push blowers and edgers. The bag provides a place
for operators to put all the trash and debris they find without having to
stuff their own pockets. Two top straps wrap around the handlebars and
secure with hook-and-loop fasteners or quick-release plastic buckles.
The 10-inch-wide by 12-inch-long bag is designed to stay open for easy
access and for extra storage capacity.
