The full-width, flow-through horizontal cutter head helps to ensure maximum material uptake by sucking from the full
width of the cutter head rather than just from the center. This allows more material to make its way to the suction inlet of
the pump. Interchangeable trencher and paddle teeth enable the cutter head to chew into material, while at the same time
paddling the material into the suction inlet of the cutter head. 30,348 in-lb of torque is provided to help the teeth eat away
at tough materials. Shock absorbers come standard to reduce shock loading and protect critical components and
assemblies. The cutter speed is fully variable both forward and reverse to allow the operator to adjust the speed for
maximum material uptake while dredging forward or in reverse. An open cutter cage allows material to freely flow
through the cage while cutting instead of flowing around a pipe or tube. An integrated suction clean out hatch allows easy
removal of any large or trapped debris. Sturdy steel construction with strength bracing add durability to handle tough
abuse. It all adds up to increased performance and productivity when you need it most!
