Standard 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 four (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”x10” steel case, 
easily accessible by two removable end plates.

The cutter head has four (4) heat treated high carbon 
steel blades with a cutting diameter adjustable from 18” 
to 20”.

The D5P18A Power Ditcher is designed for use on 
tractors with 50 to 110 PTO horsepower and 540 RPM 
PTO. The D10P18A Power Ditcher is designed for use 
on tractors with 80 to 150 PTO horsepower and 1000 
RPM PTO.

NOTE

D10P models can be used with 540 PTO tractors by 
reversing sprockets and replacing the tractor end PTO 
yoke.
