Ditch Witch M422 Trencher Manual And Have

The upshot is re-digging all those trenches out by hand with a contractors shovel, or cobbling up something that allows the CUT to help with the chore.

Been stalking them for some time, but the or condition put me off.

Until now. This antique Ditch Witch C-99 is an awesome little digger.

I can share one painful way not to do it, but it works pretty well once you get the hang of it.

I can run an easy 2 deep when and wherever I want, and its at least a little more maneuverable in some of the tighter places.

You trench in the reverse creeper gear, and once its all going you can sit down and watch.

It will just pull a straight line unless you hit something you should have known was there.

Ditch Witch M422 Trencher Manual And Have

If anyone else has one, I have scanned the owners manual and have the parts book as well.

I have finally got my pipes from the well to the house (and under the driveway, courtesy of a rental UnderWonder) and am finally making some real progress.

Engine was locked up, all sheet metal had fallen off, tires rotted, rims rotted off of tires, no chain You get the picture.

Trenchers are FUN I had a Bobcat Ride On w6 chain and 35hp Kabota Engine that I got a great deal on but found out that Bobcat didnt build it and didnt parts support it.

The hydraulic drive motor quit working, I sold it for over twice what I paid.

I also bought a Case 100 (about like yours in size and design) at an auction for 90.

The manual might be useful for someone, as I found they are hard to find via Google.

I now need to replace the main drain down to the septic (they installed drainage pipe, instead of ABS, and the roots have gotten in) and I am wondering if I could trench either side of the existing pipe to remove and replace.

Once you have one, youll find all sorts of things that you want to do that you hadnt considered.

Ive been looking at them, but most of the ones I see on Craigslist are either really expensive, or in really bad shape.

To be fair: Ditch Witch tech support sent me the hardcopies for this long-discontinued trencher at no charge.

They are a stand up outfit Personally I prefer everything electronically so I woulda scanned em anyway.
