HT300
Heavy Duty Trencher

The king of the Ditch Witch mountain is the HT300, a rock-digging workhorse capable of trenching up to ten feet (3.1 m) deep and up to 36 inches (914 mm) wide in the most extreme jobsite conditions. The 300-hp (224 kW) HT300 is designed to deliver maximum trenching power even on rocky and/or uneven terrain, making it the ideal trencher for wind-farm construction, pipeline work, installing and repairing energy-distribution facilities, and other heavy-duty applications.
    Key Features
  • Exclusive flywheel gearbox delivers maximum power to the trenching attachment on demand while minimizing shock to the hydraulic system.
  • Forged, heat-treated, high-alloy steel headshaft is guaranteed for life.
  • Reversible conveyor effectively deposits spoils on either side of the trench.
