Features

PRODUCTIVITY
  • Compact size allows greater productivity on residential and urban jobsites; JT20 has a high ratio of power to size, allowing you to install more utilities per day in tight, congested areas.
  • Industry-best cruise control system simplifies drilling and backreaming.
  • Auto-throttle feature saves fuel and reduces pollution by slowing the engine to idle after 15 seconds of inactivity; when you resume work, the auto-throttle engages.
  • Automated, intuitive carve mode reduces operator fatigue and is easy to set up and adjust; compatible with industry-leading TriHawk® HD housings and bits for superior efficiency and productivity in hard, compacted soils and soft rock.
  • Coordinated makeup feature increases the life of drill pipe joints by automatically matching carriage speed with rotation during pipe makeup and breakout.
  • Drilling fluid system pumps mud at 25 GPM; high fluid flow enables longer utility installations and better performance in sandy soils.

INNOVATIVE DESIGN
  • The JT20 has no grease zerks—the competition has 19—and all daily maintenance points are in one easy-access location, reducing service time and increasing uptime.
  • Dual rear independent stabilizers are easy to set up and enhance stability on uneven or rough terrain.
  • Proven tethered ground drive controller allows you to maneuver the drilling unit to a position that provides better visibility, easier loading/unloading and easier positioning.
  • Best-in-class, heavy-duty anchor system with 16 inches (40.6 cm) more engagement than competitors’ drills, for outstanding stability.
  • Exceptionally efficient Sauer H1 hydrostatic pumps control rotation and thrust; design enhancements include a larger displacement pump and simplified, two-speed hydraulic thrust circuit for increased reliability.

OPERATOR'S STATION
  • At only 87 dBA, engine is among the quietest in its class, for increased operator comfort and reduced environmental impact in urban areas.
  • Comfortable operator's station provides excellent visibility of the drill pipe and pipeloading system; open-top vise wrenches are angled toward the operator for an excellent view of the tool joint.
  • Color LCD display provides engine diagnostics and informational messages.
