Ditch Witch introduces the Zahn R150 power unit, which includes a Honda gas engine, operator’s console and an articulation joint that provides improved maneuverability. The power unit drives a front-end trencher that is designed to concentrate its weight on the digging chain, so it penetrates the ground easier and enhances overall stability. The R150’s fully hydraulic, articulated steering provides maneuverability, enabling the operator to easily trench a curve around trees, swimming pools, and other obstacles that utility workers and landscapers inevitably come across.
