INTRODUCTION
You are now the owner of a Brown TRENCHMASTER®.
The term TRENCHMASTER®is used throughout this
manual to include the following products: R450H, HA
ReDefiner, R460HA WireMaster “Mole” and the
ReDefiner Edger Kit. The TRENCHMASTERS® are very
versale trenchers which, when properly equipped,
will trench in almost any soil condion. The

equipment since 1943. Brown Products is proud of the
reputaon it has earned for quality products and
