The MD-822-SP is a one of a kind dredge featuring a twin auger drive system. The MD-822-SP features both a cable drive
system and the twin auger drive system allowing the ability to switch between propulsion methods for different operating
conditions. You can switch between the twin auger drive system and cable propulsion with the flip of a switch and one
lever. The augers have high/low speeds which can be shifted on the fly at any time by simply pressing a button on the
control joystick. A steerable rear thruster allows independent control of the rear of the dredge for maneuvering. A color
display screen inside the operator's cab allows the ability to display video from a camera.
The twin auger drive system is fully removable allowing the ability to shorten the dredge and operate with cable if desired.
