2025 Ditch Witch® Ride-On RT80

MID-SIZE MACHINE. HEAVY-DUTY WORK ETHIC.

This versatile machine is designed for heavy-duty trenching and vibratory plowing; backhoe and reel carrier attachments are also available.

Features may include:

POWER AND PRODUCTIVITY
  • Powered by a 74.5-hp (62 kW) Deutz®, Tier-4 diesel engine for a broad range of applications. When equipped with a plow, the machine has a best-in-class 35,215 lbs (156,644 N) of breakout force for plowing applications.
EASE OF USE
  • Equipped with a push-button return to center so operators can automatically return the rear axle to center. An active management system maintains the rear axle’s center position, eases machine maneuverability. An enhanced rear-steer indicator is integrated into the operator display for easy viewing of rear wheel positioning.
DESIGN
  • The modular track-frame design is the simplest in the industry and improves machine versatility and utilization by allowing tracks and tires to be interchanged in the field. An updated hood design helps pull away high air temperatures to keep the machine running cooler and improve operator comfort.
OPERATOR'S STATION
  • An ergonomic, high-back seat rotates 90 degrees with the operator for easier, more comfortable operation. Improved design adds additional operator room for greater comfort. A newly designed venturi hood reduces temperature level near the operator’s station, improving comfort.
