TILTING THE TRENCHER
Tilt the trencher unit up or down by tilting the toolbar / attachment plate back
or forward through its skid steer control. We recommend a 60° digging angle for
general trenching as measured from ground level (the horizon). (See Figure #2)
SIDE SHIFTING THE TRENCHER
Your trencher has an adjustment to shift the whole unit to the side on its own
mount. To shift the unit sideways, first remove the locking pin from the back of the
unit.
Lower trencher until trencher frame is resting on the ground, then counter-
rotate the tires so that the skid steer moves in a sideways motion. Continue moving
until side shift holes are aligned and replace locking pin.
IMPORTANT: Always reinstall the locking pin to prevent the trencher from
shifting sideways during operation.
NOTE: Slight shifting of the trencher from side to side may be necessary to
align the side shift holes for reinstalling the locking pin.
