2005 Ditch Witch JT520 Horizontal Directional Drill Rig 2Z1297

I have no history on this unit. It was a spare for some time after the company upgraded equipment and then the company went out of business.

Unit starts up with a jump and appears operational. Will need a replacement battery and likely some regular maintenance.

Specifications found online, actual may vary. Contact manufacturer to verify.
