The JT60 delivers up to 12,200Nm of rotational torque
7307 Ditch Witch has introduced two directional drills, the JT60 and the JT60 All terrain. Both drills offer 267kN of thrust and pullback, along with up to 12,200Nm of rotational torque. Customers can choose between a 142kW Tier 3 engine or a 149kW Tier 4 Interim diesel, depending on territory. Both come with a 560l/min fluid pump that helps to ensure productive drilling, which is fully enclosed to reduce noise and to protect components.

In answer to customer research, the JT60 drills come with a climate controlled cab, a heavy-duty thrust drive and improved serviceability. The JT60 All Terrain uses a two-pipe all terrain drilling system to provide more power than many machines in this class.

Both drill rigs come with Ditch Witch GPS as part of the standard specification, allowing customers to remotely view engine hours, machine location and other performance data. Installation and one year of premium service is included in the purchase price.
