Heavy-duty cone head with hard-faced 3/8" thick blades provides even flow of soil and the curved depth slide keeps ditches clean, allowing for good field drainage.
The Ferguson power take-off driven ditchers are designed to provide clean and uniform ditches in widths of 12" and 18" at depths to 12". The Ferguson drain ditchers adapt to all 3-point lift tractors in the 35 and up horsepower range. These drain ditchers allow you to cut clean ditches with no mounds of soil to block free passages of excess water because the delivery chutes are designed to spread the soil over an area 10 feet to 20 feet from the ditcher. Recommended in all type field conditions, bedded or flat, where water drainage is desired.

SHEAR PLATE SAFETY. This safety is designed with two machined plates. One is attached to the input shaft of the ditcher and the other is welded to the end yoke of the universal joint. The two plates are then bolted together with shear bolts. When an embedded object is struck, the bolts will shear and the shear plate attached to the universal joint will spin independent of the input shaft. The universal joint is held on by retaining bolt.
