DESIGN
Sometimes the job demands more compact approach without sacrificing production speed. To meet the need of the residential contractor who may be working in tight spaces this self-propelled trencher can easily handle sprinkler systems, electrical lines & other shallow trench applications the 912HM saves on space while still provide the horsepower necessary to trench up to 24 deep the boom pivot design keep high wear component out of the dirt & is easily maintained. The front end pivots on a pin instead of a boom pivot bushing. This reduces maintenance issues often caused by dirt & debris.
CONTROLS
The control panel is simple and understandable for even the novice operator. The safety clutch engages and disengages the wheel and chain drives. When the clutch is released, the engine continues to run & the controls remain in place, ready to resume trenching at any time. Variable speed drive allows the operator to adjust their wheel speed to the soil conditions the reversible chain drive can be operated manually to dislodge obstructions or debris.
ROI

TRENCHERS
Barretos comprehensive trencher line offers models for every job, ranging from micro and mini units designed for tight spaces to heavy-duty track trenchers capable of digging trenches up to 48 deep. The 712MTH Micro Trencher employs a load-sensing hydraulic valve that automatically adjusts wheel speed to maintain constant engine load, taking the guesswork out of operation. For compact job sites and shallow trench needs, the 912HM Mini Trencher provides up to 24 of digging depth and features a pivoting front end to minimize wear and maintenance. The 1324D & 1624D Standard Trenchers use an all-hydraulic, belt-free design that lowers maintenance requirements and extends component life, while their variable speed drive and reversible chain drive help dislodge debris and navigate changing soil conditions.
For enhanced traction and maneuverability in challenging terrain, Barretos 13STK & 16STK Track Trenchers include a floating track system and Adjustable Trenching Controls (ATC) to independently fine-tune track speeds on the go. The stand-on 20RTK & 23RTK Track Trenchers add higher horsepower, a wide track footprint for stability, and an optional backfill blade attachment, making them ideal for larger jobs that still require precise control. Across the board, Barreto trenchers prioritize simple controls, robust hydraulic systems, and adjustable digging speeds, helping operators of all experience levels work efficiently while reducing stress on components for a longer machine life.
