Model Specifications
The D5P/D10P Series Power Ditchers are connected to
the tractor PTO shaft by means of a shielded double
u-joint. The 2-3/16" diameter alloy steel in-put and
out-put shafts are connected by a #80-2 double roller
chain drive. The drive system rotates on (4) tri-ply seal
ball bearings in a continuous oil bath.
The D5P18A has a 22 Tooth In-Put sprocket and a 16
Tooth Out-Put Sprocket. The D10P18A has a 16 Tooth
In-Put Sprocket and a 22 Tooth Out-Put Sprocket. This
combination gives a Cutter Head speed of 740 RPM on
both models. (D5P18 @ 540 RPM PTO and D10P18 @
1000 RPM PTO.)
The entire drive system is inside a 6" x 10" steel case,
