Compac Hydraulic Auger/Post Hole Borer User Guide

This Barreto 20RTK Stand-on Track trencher will dig a trench up to 3’ deep and 6” wide. With a 7.1” wide track that creates 241 square inches of footprint on each side of the machine, the RTK provides outstanding traction on most normal ground conditions, while softening the impact on any existing landscaping.

The RTK features a fixed platform and with the added weight advantage improves traction, reduces impact on the operator, and provides stability. The Adjustable Trenching Control (ATC) can be positioned to modify the trenching speed of the tracks individually while on the go. By utilising the individual track controls, the operator has the ability to keep their trench straight when working on uneven terrain.

N.B. It is advisable to check/scan/survey the area for all hidden services prior to trenching.
