Vermeer has introduced the FTX25 — a stand-on, track- mounted trencher built to dig footings up to 26 inches (66 cm) deep and up to 12 inches (30.48 cm) wide for residential concrete slab installations. This machine offer two boom lengths — 20 inch (50.8 cm) or 26 inch (66 cm) — and can cut a footing trench up to 12 inches (30.5 cm) in width. A variable-position boom can be offset up to 2 inches (5.1 cm) outside the track undercarriage, allowing the operator to trench flush with the footing backer or form board. The trenching boom can be easily repositioned to a center-mount position to accommodate other trenching applications, such as utility and irrigation installations.
