| Dual-Pivot Drilling Rack |
The dual-pivot structure accommodates entry angles from 10 degrees up to 24 degrees, maximizing adaptability across changing terrain and product pipe requirements. |
| Breakout Vise & Rod Loading Systems |
| Breakout System (Vise) |
Standard. Features an open-top vise design which enables fast, unhindered removal and addition of downhole tooling. |
| Automated Rod Loader |
Optional. Supports a single-row, sliding-arm rod loader configuration that stages five rods simultaneously, accelerating boring efficiency by cutting rod-loading cycle times. |
| Onboard Drilling Fluid (Mud) System |
| High-Pressure Fluid Pump (Option One) |
Maximum Flow: 300 gpm (1,135.6 L/min) | Maximum Pressure: 1,650 psi (113.8 bar) |
| Mud Flow Indicator |
Standard |
| System Benefit |
The high-capacity 1,136 L/min onboard pump provides a highly mobile, self-contained footprint. For larger pipeline projects requiring higher flow rates, it can be seamlessly combined with a standalone external high-volume pump. |

| Maximum Lifting Capacity |
4,410 lbs (2,000.3 kg / 2.0 metric tons) |
| Boom Rotation Range |
270 degrees |
| Optional Telescoping Crane |
Yes. Choosing the integrated telescoping crane minimizes footprint and vastly reduces the amount of secondary logistical support vehicles needed on site. |
| Operator Comfort, Safety & Fluid Capacities |
| Operator Station (Cab) |
Standard. The fully enclosed, climate-controlled cab (Heat/AC) delivers elements protection, optimizes operator environment, and reduces fatigue during long shifts. |
| Drilling Lights / Stakedown System |
Drilling Night Lights: Standard | Anchoring Stakedown System: Optional |
