  • Easily install underground cables and flexible pipes with little or no damage to roads, sidewalks or other existing structures 
  • The hydraulically powered attachment bores horizontally to accommodate pipe or cable up to 4 inches in diameter 
  • Boring unit’s drive head can be operated from the center or either side of the loader for greater versatility near buildings and other obstacles 

 

Features & Benefits

 

Boring Depth

The attachment boars up to 2 feet deep and 30 feet horizontally. 

 

Manual Guide Rod

The manual guide rod aligns the bit at the proper angle to ensure accurate drilling, an ideal feature when working in tight spaces.  

 

Three Positions

The boring unit frame allows the drive head to be mounted on the front of the loader in three positions: on the center, right or left side. This allows the attachment to be positioned directly next to obstacles, such as buildings, and bore exactly where the operator desires. 

 

Versatility

The boring unit accommodates various sizes of bits, reamers and rock heads, allowing for maximum versatility and performance in a variety of environments. 

 

Top Tasks

  • Install electrical, telephone and television cables
  • Install irrigation lines and flexible water pipes for sprinkler systems

 

How It Works

The loader’s auxiliary hydraulics power a motor that drives a screw-type boring bit through the ground as the machine is driven forward. The ground is compacted to create a tunnel under the driveway or sidewalk.

When the bit reaches the other side, a reaming bit is installed. The loader is backed up and the rotating reaming bit further compacts the soil as it pulls the service through the enlarged tunnel.
