DITCHING
CROSS ROOM DITCHING
When removing hard to remove ceramic, Vct or vat, cross-room ditching will help to make the removal
easier. Using a blade 2" to 6" in width, make ditches 1' to 2' apart in the same direction the machine will
be removing the goods (Figure A). This "relieves" the pressure holding the tiles together. If ditching helps
and the goods are coming up easy, try using a wider blade to ditch with.
CHECKER BOARD DITCHING
To make carpet removal and debris cleanup easier, checker board ditching is very helpful. Using as wide
of a self-scoring blade as possible, make ditches 4' to 6' apart crossways from the way the machine will
be removing the goods (Figure B). Running the machine crossways from the ditches will make smaller
pieces of debris to be hauled away. Instead of large gummy rolls of carpet, there are small squares that
can be rolled, palletized, put on a dolly or folded with the sticky side in. This makes removing the debris
easier and reduces the amount of debris.
