The Ditch Witch SK3000 is powered by a 59hp engine to cope with a range of attachments, can lift 1400kg but weighs in at less than 3.5 tonnes.

 “The SK3000 has the power, lift capacity and stability to complete the larger jobs that a traditional skid steer can, but it comes with the ability to easily step on and off the operator’s platform and have increased visibility while operating the equipment,” says Chris Thompson, Ditch Witch product manager, compact equipment.

The operator’s station comes standard with dual-lever ground drive controls or an optional single-lever joystick, allowing the operator to control each track independently.

There is also the option of a dual self-levelling kit that keeps loads level as they are raised or lowered.
