Duct Installation

 

The trench is again started with a mini digger.

An adapted mole plough blade is used, to which the draw hawser is linked it is then threaded through the ploughing head and through the laid out duct pipe and the end stop attached to the end of the duct.

The machine starts forward drawing the duct installation gear and duct and cable if required through the mole ploughed trench.

 

Additional duct lengths can be added as work progresses. The end of the trench is excavated by mini digger and the installation finished off.

Start and finish trenches are backfilled and the mole plough line is compacted by rolling with the machine wheels - again minimum disturbance to the terrain.
