Production diggers: 60- to <130-horsepower trenchers keep you focused on installing product

摘要

Trenchers in the 60- to <130-horsepower size classes are production machines, prompting manufacturers to key in on features that keep your attention dialed in on putting product in the ground instead of constantly monitoring machine functions. For example, says Jon Kuyers, Vermeer's utility product segment manager, some control systems automatically maximize the productivity of the machine by keeping the engine operating within its maximum torque range without the operator having to constantly adjust controls. These systems decrease the ground drive speed when going through tough soil and automatically speed up when the ground is softer.
