2025 Ditch Witch® Directional Drills JT10
THE MOST POWERFUL DRILL IN ITS CLASSThe JT10 boasts unbeatable power in a compact, yet sturdy frame for easy transportation and improved maneuverability on tight jobsites.
Features may include:
POWER- Powered by a Tier 4, 66-hp (49kW) Deutz® diesel engine, the JT10 is the most powerful drill in its class. It can provide 1,100 ft-lb (2066.7 Nm) of rotational torque for maximum strength and durability.
- With the quickest cycle time in its drill class, the JT10 allows operators to put more pipe in the ground faster. Plus, an onboard fluid tank with the capacity for 40 gal of fresh water provides fluid for short bores and easy cleanup. Allowing operators to effectively drill in tight spaces where an additional fluid mixer wouldn’t fit.
- Equipped with a heavy-duty anchor system and integrated remote tracking display, the JT10 is the shortest drill in its class, giving it the ability to effortlessly maneuver in tight jobsites. Small and compact, this machine is easy to transport from job to job with a rear ignition for faster jobsite setup.
- With no grease zerks and easy access to all service points, maintenance is simplified on the JT10. The standard drill pipe lubrication system allows operators to drill for longer periods of time and improve uptime. A field-proven rack-and-pinion thrust drive with a welded-on double rack reduces operator maintenance, increases reliability and improves sturdiness.
- The JT10 is equipped with a single joystick for quicker and smoother operation, freeing a hand for operators to focus on other tasks. An advanced operator display provides a clear view into all engine diagnostics for boosted performance and productivity. The machine’s open-top vise wrenches are angled toward the operator for an excellent view of the tool joint
