<strong>RT120Q</strong> Operator’s <strong>Manual</strong><br />

10 Hour<br />

Check Digging Chain Teeth and Bits<br />

Check teeth (1) for wear every 10 hours. Replace<br />

worn teeth, using <strong>Ditch</strong> <strong>Witch</strong> replacement parts<br />

and maintaining original tooth pattern.<br />

For more efficient digging, contact your <strong>Ditch</strong><br />

<strong>Witch</strong> dealer for information about the tooth<br />

pattern best suited to your jobsite.<br />

If using rock chain bits, check that bits rotate<br />

freely. Clean chain and check bits after each use.<br />

Replace bit when carbide cap or insert is worn or<br />

adapter can be damaged.<br />

Check chain every 10 hours. Replace worn or<br />

broken chains. If sidebars (2) are bent or loose<br />

on chain pins (3), chain spacers should be used<br />

to join sidebars.<br />

Check Boom Mounting Bolts<br />

Check 14 bolts (7 on each side) every 10 hours<br />

and tighten as necessary to keep bolts and other<br />

fasteners tight. Check for looseness or wear.<br />

Check that bolts are tightened to 250 ft•lb (28<br />

N•m).
