About Trenchers
While there are several methods to construct a trench, there are two primary mechanisms which are commonly utilized by trenching equipment. Wheel trenchers implement a series of excavating buckets placed around the circumference of a driven wheel. Ladder trenchers place excavation buckets around the periphery if a roller chain. Ladder trenchers are capable of significantly larger and deeper trenchers, but the maintenance and expense of ladder trenchers is considerably more.
First introduced more than half a century ago, compact ride-on trenchers have become nearly indispensable to equipment fleets. Known primarily for their ability to squeeze into tight spaces, compact ride-on trenchers are well-suited for a variety of projects. Jobs that used to involve a spade and lots of sweat can now be completed in a fraction of the time, thanks to the reliable and maneuverable compact trencher.
Trenchers are efficient, labor-saving machines. It would be difficult to accurately estimate the cumulative amount of time, labor and expense these small workhorses have saved, but it certainly can be said the impact has been significant.
Manufacturers have responded to customer feedback by developing models that are not only compact in frame, but pack enough power to complete an array of jobs in varying soil conditions. The equipment’s small size also contributes to its ability to keep ground pressure low and minimize surface disturbance.
Categorizing compact trenchers
Although a compact ride-on trencher category has not officially been defined, the machines are most often classified by tractor horsepower and width of frame. Machine weight also plays a role, but industry experts concur that what matters more than total weight is the impact, or “footprint,” the machines make on a jobsite.
Although opinions may vary, most manufacturers would likely concur that as a category, compact ride-on trenchers would be defined as tractors under 50 horsepower (37 kW) less than 72 inches (182.9 cm) wide and generally under 10,000 pounds (4,535.9 kg) total machine weight (including attachment). Trenching widths and depths for compact ride-on trenchers most commonly range from 2 to 12 inches (5.1 – 30.5 cm) wide, to a maximum of 5 feet (1.5 cm) in depth — ideally suited for shallow- to medium-depth installations.
These machines are more portable, and, with the use of different attachments, often more versatile than their larger conventional trencher counterparts. Their overall weight also makes impact to sensitive jobsites less destructive.
Performance in a small footprint
The ability to maneuver effectively in and around tight spaces is one of the most beneficial features of compact trenchers. They can fit through most gates and into tight spots, making them ideal for jobs in crowded urban or residential areas.
Engineers consider weight, size, steering angles, turning radius and overall ease of operation when designing compact trencher models. Maintenance and operator safety are also major factors.
Hydrostatic drive is one of the most significant features offered by a compact trencher — it allows operators to maximize production efficiency with minimal operator effort. Hydrostatic-driven machines also require less maintenance due to fewer moving parts.
Compact trenchers developed in recent years also place an emphasis on safety. Features such as operator presence systems which automatically shut down trencher and ground drives when the operator leaves the seat, and advances in comfort have helped lessen operator fatigue and increased productivity. Padded seats that can be adjusted for height and position relative to steering and adjustable armrests help reduce tension and back stress.
A big advantage for compact ride-on trenchers is that they can be outfitted with multiple attachments, making them ideal for contractors who take on a variety of tasks. In addition to conventional chain-and-boom trenching attachments, many models can be easily adapted with a vibratory plow, auger/boring attachment, backhoe, reel carriers and trench backfill blade attachment.
