410sx - OVERVIEW 11
OVERVIEW
The 410sx is an articulating, hydrostatic, four wheel drive,
pedestrian vibratory plow designed to bury cable or pipe in a
variety of soils. An optional trenching attachment, drilling
attachment, and reel carrier are available. The 410sx is powered
by a liquid-cooled 45 hp (33.4 kW) four-cylinder Deutz diesel

For the purposes of this manual, we define “tractor” as a self-
propelled wheeled machine, having rear and/or front-mounted
equipment, primarily designed to produce a trench in a
continuous operation, through motion of the machine; the
attachment can be a digging chain, wheel, plow, blade, or similar
item.
