AMCO Manufacturing Vertical Rotary Ditcher

Vertical Rotary Ditcher Features & Benefits
High-performing in dry conditions and still a solid choice for creating ditches in wet conditions, the AMCO Vertical Rotary Ditcher weighs 120 pounds less than the offset model and will dig a deeper ditch than the offset. The cutter head is a traditional center placement. It straddles the ditch during cleanout.
- Driving the cutter head is a dual, heavy-duty, endless double #80 roller chain with 1″ pitch that runs continuously in a sealed oil bath
- Each chain drive is equipped with an adjustable idler sprocket with case-hardened teeth
- An all-welded main frame has chain-case construction of 6″ x 10″ x ¼″ tubing
- The 3-point hitch A-frame fits category II and III with quick-hitch compatibility
- Our standard parking stands allow you to park your drainage ditcher in the upright position for easy connect and disconnect
- AMCO’s standard buster shank rips through tough dirt, allowing penetration to the desired depth and clean passage for the cutter head
