Four Wheel Drive Trencher
Easy to understand and use control system features a safety clutch that does not kill the engine or require re-adjusting settings to resume operation. The unique manual chain control allows trenching through extra tough soil, roots, or rocks without the need to continually adjust the ground speed.
The wheel drive hydrostat
pump and
digging chain gear pump are coupled
together and then to the
engine for a
clean and simple application, with
easy access for
maintenance or
adjustment.
The patented SnapLoc™ four wheel drive system delivers performance that the two wheel drive models cannot. The rear wheels help keep the digging boom in the ground. The extra driving traction keeps your trencher working in soft soil conditions or when cross-trenching.

The Barreto Advantage
Direct Hydraulic Drive to Head Shaft: No belts - No gears - No chains
Lower Center of Gravity
Safety Clutch Stops Wheels & Chain Immediately: No micro switches to fail. Engine continues to run. No need to re-adjust ground speed when resuming operation
Hydraulic Chain Reverse to Dislodge Rocks: Operator need not leave control position.
Finer Degree of Control for Trenching Ground-Speed: Ground speed control lever to ground-speed ratio is 2:1 in reverse and 1:1 in forward.
With SnapLoc™ in down position: Superb traction in mud, sand, and soft ground. Shifts fulcrum point applying more pressure on longer booms for better ground penetration. More floatation and better traction for crossing furrows or cross-trenching. Maintains effortless straight-line trenching. Eliminates kick-back when hitting rocks or other obstacles. Boom will not "ride up" when digging shallow trenches, or when trenching downhill. Maintains constant depth. Eliminates weight shift for safer loading & unloading on inclines such as ramps and drop-gate trailer.
With SnapLoc™ in up position: Better balance and weight distribution for easy pivoting.
