BETTER TRACTION EQUALS BETTER PRODUCTIVITY.

Features May Include:

POWER

• 16-hp (11.9-kW) Vanguard™ engine keeps the C16X performing for rental income you can count on, year after year.

CX TRACK DESIGN

• Exclusive, patented CX Track design puts more track on the ground for better traction while increasing stability for better production. The shorter left track on the CX Track design allows for a more compact piece of equipment than competitive designs, offering more maneuverability in tighter spaces.

RELIABILITY

• Robust, straightforward pivot design is maintenance-free and increases unit uptime. Greaseless sealed bearing design with construction-grade seals help increase machine longevity. Standard outboard bearing support stabilizes the headshaft and auger for reliable productivity trench after trench. 

EASE OF USE

• Easy-touch controls are smoother and lighter for less operator fatigue and increased machine responsiveness. Hydrostatic, skid-steer style steering provides easier operation. Simple, open design allows for quick, easy service access.

OPTIONS

• Easy-to-operate backfill blade is much faster and less expensive than shovels, increasing productivity and rental revenue. Ditch Witch also offers the S3C Trailer, a single-axle design with a new rail system for easy loading and unloading of equipment of up to 3,500 lb (1,588 kg).
