Barreto Manufacturing

Barreto Manufacturing introduces the new TK track trencher for challenging trenching applications. Because of their large footprint, tracks are less invasive on the landscape. Cross-trenching is made simple by combining tracks with additional weight, and the ability to keep the trench straight is greatly improved. The TK features an ergonomic single-handed control and handles trenching applications ranging from 24 to 48 inches and up to 6 inches wide. The TK is available in 13-, 16-, 18-, 20- and 23-hp models.
