Shipping & Freight

Most equipment and attachments sold by Hardscape Heavy ship by parcel, LTL freight, or specialized freight depending on product size, weight, palletization, and destination.

Commercial delivery locations are preferred when available. Residential delivery, limited-access delivery, liftgate service, appointment scheduling, and other carrier requirements may affect final delivery handling.

Lead times vary by product type, manufacturer availability, selected options, and freight lane. Some configured, special-order, or non-stock items may require additional processing time before shipment.

Buyers should inspect freight shipments at delivery before signing. If visible damage is present, note it with the carrier and contact us as soon as possible.

If you need freight, delivery, or lead-time guidance before ordering, contact our team before purchase.

Compatibility / Fitment

Compatibility varies by product type, machine setup, selected options, and intended application.

For machine-mounted equipment and attachments, buyers should confirm fitment before ordering using the relevant machine information, including model, attachment style, mount type, coupler type, hydraulic requirements, and any other product-specific requirements listed on the page.

Hardscape Heavy can assist with pre-order fitment guidance based on the information you provide. This guidance is limited to purchase and compatibility review before ordering and does not include field installation, hydraulic modification, fabrication, or on-site setup support.

If you are unsure whether a product will work with your machine or application, contact us before placing the order.

Returns & Warranty

Warranty coverage is provided by the product manufacturer where applicable. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures vary by brand and product type.

Hardscape Heavy does not create separate warranty coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty unless explicitly stated on the product page.

Please review our full return policy before purchase. If you have questions about return eligibility or manufacturer warranty coverage for a specific item, contact us before ordering.

The Skid Steer Rock & Utility Trencher Attachment is built for utility trenching, irrigation and conduit installation, hardscape ditching, and rock cutting on contractor jobsites. It mounts to compatible skid steer loaders using a universal quick attach system and is driven by the machine's auxiliary hydraulic circuit.

Selectable chain configurations — earth teeth for standard soil and clay, or earth-tungsten combination for harder ground, caliche, and fractured rock — let operators match chain setup to actual site conditions without switching attachments. Adjustable trenching depth from 800 to 1,200 mm covers most utility and drainage trench requirements.

Common Applications
- Electrical conduit and communication line installation
- Irrigation line and water service trenching
- Drainage and French drain installation
- Gas and utility line ditching
- Hardscape and rock trenching where a standard earth trencher cannot penetrate

Selection Notes
- Chain configuration should be selected based on expected ground conditions — earth teeth for soil and clay, tungsten combination for hard ground and rock
- Confirm machine hydraulic flow — high flow recommended for consistent performance in rock and hardscape
- Trenching depth is adjustable within the 800–1,200 mm range on the attachment
- Not designed for deep excavation trenching requiring depths beyond 1,200 mm

The Skid Steer Rock & Utility Trencher Attachment is a hydraulic chain trencher designed for skid steer loaders with universal quick attach systems. A hydraulic motor drives the trencher chain around a fixed boom, cutting a clean trench in soil, clay, caliche, and fractured rock depending on chain configuration selected.

Drive System
- Hydraulic motor-driven chain trencher
- Motor powered by skid steer auxiliary hydraulic circuit
- High-flow recommended for sustained performance in rock and hard material
- Chain speed and cutting performance scale with machine hydraulic output

Chain & Cutting
- Selectable chain configuration: earth teeth or earth/tungsten combination
- Earth teeth: optimized for soil, clay, and soft to medium ground conditions
- Earth/tungsten combination: suited for hard ground, caliche, and fractured rock
- Chain and teeth are field-replaceable for ongoing serviceability

Depth Adjustment
- Adjustable trenching depth: 800–1,200 mm (31–47 in)
- Depth adjustment made at the attachment — no special tooling required
- Spoil auger moves excavated material away from trench during cutting

Mount & Interface
- Universal quick attach plate
- Compatible with most skid steer loaders running standard or high-flow auxiliary hydraulics
- Hydraulic connections: standard auxiliary flat-face couplers

Build
- Heavy-duty steel boom, chain housing, and drive assembly
- CE certified
- Designed for repeated daily use in utility and hardscape trenching applications

Machine Notes
- Hydraulic flow must fall within 20–35 GPM operating range
- High flow recommended for rock and hardscape chain configuration
- Final compatibility depends on machine make, model, and hydraulic configuration

Included with Purchase
- 1 Skid Steer Rock & Utility Trencher Attachment
- Universal quick attach mount
- Hydraulic drive motor and trencher chain assembly
- Selected chain configuration (earth or earth/tungsten)
- Spoil auger assembly

Not Included Unless Stated
- Skid steer loader
- Replacement chain or teeth
- Alternate chain configuration (if not selected at time of order)
- Hydraulic hoses or fittings on the machine side
- On-site installation or machine configuration
