Special Plowing
Your Ditch Witch equipment allows you to plow four
ways: normal plowing, offset plowing (1), coordinated
plowing (2), and crabbing (3).
Offset Plow
Offset plowing can be used to plow next to a road while keeping tires on a more stable surface or in similar
conditions.
1. Use plow swing to move plow to planned trench line.
2. Use blade steer to position blade parallel to direction of tractor frame.
Coordinate Plow
Coordinated plowing can be used to turn a tight circle around a jobsite obstacle or in similar conditions.
1. Move rear steer control to desired position.
2. Slowly move tractor forward.
3. Plow as normal.
Crab
Crab plowing can be used to plow along edge of jobsite or in similar conditions.
1. Move rear steer control to desired position.
2. Slowly move tractor forward.
3. Plow as normal.
NOTICE: Oversteering blade may damage blade or
cable.
IMPORTANT: When coordinate plowing, keep plow blade straight or in the same angle position as rear
tires.
