Engine
- 37 horsepower water-cooled diesel engine (33 hp net)
- Kubota V1505-B engine has tunnel bore crank shaft for low vibration
- TVCS (triple vortex combustion system) provides a very fuel-efficient engine
- Single stage air cleaner
- Warning light for plugged air filter
- 2 year or 1000 hour engine warranty
- 2-position tilt-up hood allows easy access to engine
- Glow plugs in combustion chamber for pre-heating for cold weather starting
- An optional block heater is available also
Propulsion system
- Hydrostatic propulsion system has infinite speed control
- Equal speeds (0-3.9 mph with large tires) forward and reverse
- Directional change forward to reverse without clutching or shifting
- No belts, chains, or drive sprockets to maintain
- Hydraulic pump connected to motor mounted on transmission
- Motor drives mechanical transmission connected to rear axle
- Driveshaft connects transmission to front axle
- Dana model 44 axles have limited slip differentials to proportion torque to wheels
- Frame oscillates 10 degrees to allow wheels to stay in contact with ground in uneven terrain
- Propulsion speed is controlled by (tall) 2-lever control
- Crowd speed is controlled by (short) 2-lever control
- Hydrostatic drive provides hydrodynamic braking feature
- Tire options include 23x10.50x12, 4pr standard and heavy duty, and 26x12x12, 8pr heavy duty
Brakes
- Hydrodynamic braking occurs while engine is running
- Emergency / parking brake is hand actuated over-center design
- Brake exceeds SAE qualifications for an emergency brake
- Disc and caliper brake is mounted on driveline
Steering System
- Articulated steering provides excellent maneuverability
- 28 degree steer angle obtains a 6' inside-tire turning radius
- Steering is controlled using 2-lever control on console
- Front and rear wheels follow same track
- Trencher does not under-cut trench in turns and plow follows on center
Hydraulic System
- Tandem hydraulic gear pump is direct driven off hydrostat pump
- One section for steering and attachment lift flow
- Other section provides flow to attachment circuit
- 16.4 gpm flow to plow, hydrabore, or trencher
- Hydraulic controls are located within easy reach of operator
- Hydraulic oil cooler maintains optimum operating temperature
- Hydraulic filter installed to purify oil during operation
Electrical System
- 12 volt system
- 30 amp alternator
- 1.4 Kw starter
- Seat interlock system
- Ignition key for engine starts and stops
- Warning lights and analog gauges to monitor systems
- Seat interlock circuit prevents operation when not in seated
- Neutral-start switch on propulsion linkage for safety

- P40 or P75 vibratory cable plows capable of installations to 24" deep
- Mounted on center and has free-swing to trail unit -- pin to lock in transport position
- Two-position mounting for use with either tire size
- Isolation mounts on plow links reduce vibration transmission into machine
- Maximum blade vibration 2381 oscillations per minute on P40
- Maximum blade vibration 2200 oscillations per minute on P75
- Vibration generated by counter-rotating weights inside gearbox
- P40 with 7000 pounds of vertical force
- P75 with 12000 pounds of vertical force
- Plow has hydraulic lift and down pressure to maintain blade depth

Front mount reel carrier attachment is available
- Maximum spool size of 22" wide and 32" diameter
- Maximum reel weight capacity is 200 lbs
- Cable guides available to direct wire from reel to plow
Front mount trencher attachment is available
- Weight of engine stabilizes trencher while digging
- Shock loads from trenching are away from operator's seat
- Trencher is driven off hydraulics with relief valve to protect drive components from shock load
- Heavy Duty booms lengths to attain 24" and 36" dig depth
- Cup teeth set-ups to trench 4" or 6" trenches

- Pin-on trencher design allows quick installation / removal and allows it to be swung out for access to battery
Front mounted hydraborer for horizontal boring under obstructions
- Motor positioned low to minimize bow in drill stem
- Stem rotation (320 rpm) is bi-directional (291 ft lbs torque)
- Drill stems (10' length) and variety of bits / compactors / reamers to bore up to 6" diameter holes
- Guide posts and level guide are available for safe operation
Dual wheel kit is available to increase flotation and unit stability
