The Ditcher is designed to remove both debris and dirt from ditches.

When operating, the Ditcher can reach from up to 12’, and has a cutting width of 22”.

When operated in reverse rotation the spoil is

deposited between the tractor and ditcher. When operated in forward the spoil is deposited away from the tractor.

N O T E : Creeper Gear Is Recommended! Operating with out Creeper Gear on tractor (1/4 mph) will not allow ditcher time to cut.

OPS-B- 0045

The rotating parts of this machine have been designed and tested for rugged use. However, the blades could fail upon impact with heavy, solid objects such as metal guard rails and concrete structures. Such impact could cause the broken objects to be thrown outward at very high velocities. To reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury, or even death, never allow the cutting blades to contact such obstacles.

All Safety Shields, Guards and Safety devices including (but not limited to) - the Deflectors, Chain Guards, Steel Guards, Gearbox Shields, PTO integral shields, and Retractable Door Shields should be used and maintained in good working condition. All safety devices should be inspected carefully at least daily for missing or broken components. Missing, broken, or worn items must be replaced at once to reduce the possibility of injury or death from thrown objects, entanglement, or blade contact. (SGM-3)
