Hurricane Ditcher Model 3-PT 26
These machines are made to work with, not to work on !
Description
The model 3-PT 26 3-Point ditcher is designed to provide an economical way to make surface drainage ditches using your own farm tractor. Like all the Hurricane 3-Point models, the 3-PT 26 is equipped with parking stands for easy hook-up and disconnection. It can be used with Cat II or III quick hitch by moving the bushings to the desired location.
The 3-PT 26 has a 5-paddle impeller (digging wheel) with hard-surface paddles that are designed to be resurfaced as they wear. To protect it from damage when larger objects are hit, the 3-PT 26 has a shear bolt in the 26" wheel. An optional ripper tooth is available for running in extremely hard or rocky conditions.
The rear shoe (or dragplate) gives the machine stability, helps prevent gouging and helps form the ditch in loose or wet conditions. An adjusting screw is provided.
Has a longer gear box than comparable 3-point ditchers which enables it to reach greater depths when digging.
