How to Clean Out Vacuum Excavator. How Much Maintenance Ditch Witch Equipment How to Trench Safely

Alright contractors. When we bought this Ditch Witch vacuum excavator it was brand new. I put together some video of our very first washout. As long as you have a half hour at the end of the day, the driver of this machine can dump it, and go through and clean it. The filter doesn't need cleaning every time you can just keep an eye on it. Let me know in the comments what you think of this vacuum excavator.

    I always appreciate when operator's take the time to clean up a machine after use. I'm always letting the guys know to clean up after themselves. Edit; Another informative video thanks.

    Its a beautiful machine. I come from alberta and I see more and more of these units. I've been swamping on the big tridrives tornado and foremost. Awesome content

    Thank you for commenting and watching. It's been a good machine. I thought I would need it more and be using it more than I do. But maybe that's what I had to do was to buy one to get out of all the fiber optic lines I was running into. 😂 Figures 🤷‍♂️

    First rule is ppe. The safety glasses on top of your hat doesn't protect your eyes. Personally I use a full face shield. Id rather have to stop excavating or cleaning the machine to clean my shield instead of losing an eye or tooth.

    I want to take a minute to thank you for posting these 2 videos on your Ditch Witch! When it gets full on a job but your not finished, do you haul it away, dump it and return? and the 2 tanks on the machine, is that the water your using with the vacuum, if so why is it blue?

    The tanks grow alge. The blue in the water is an algicide. Alge plugs the system, and it blows to have to clean the screens, etc.

    It dumps like a dump trailer. The back opens and all the mud runs out.

    is the demand sufficient enough to pay the payments? If so what size city are you in so I can compare the rate of demand

    In truth it's the first piece of equipment that you can do without. If you already have everything you want and the money is not a problem it's a nice luxury to have. Safely hand dig a area.

    60k with trailer or 48k for unit. Trailer is 12k and worth it. Truly custom.
