Cut through the most difficult rock trenching conditions around.

To cut through the most difficult rock trenching conditions around, Vermeer offers the T955 Commander® 3 trencher. Equipped with a Caterpillar C13 ACERT Tier 3 turbocharged diesel engine, the T955III boasts 415 hp (310 kW). Due to the high-torque rise engine, when you encounter tough trench digging conditions, the engine speed drops, increasing the torque for more power to pull through. With a rugged D6 track chain and a sectionalized trencher boom allowing customized trench depths, the T955III also brings heavy equipment strength and versatility to your construction site.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

FULL FUNCTION REMOTE CONTROL
Available with an optional wireless remote control that can provide full operator function remotely.
LOW-SPEED, HIGH-TORQUE MOTOR
Use the trenching machine more effectively with less wear due to its low-speed, high-torque, splined headshaft motor.
OPTIONAL REMOTE ATTACHMENT CONTROL
Decrease trencher teeth inspection and replacement maintenance time through an optional remote attachment control that can start or stop the engine, raise or lower the trencher boom and rotate the chain at a slow speed.
EXTRA WIDE CONVEYOR OPENING
Promote high-volume spoil removal with an extra-wide 30-in (76.2-cm) dirt conveyor opening that helps reduce jamming.
ROTARY POWER TRENCHER DRIVE MOTOR
A rotary power trencher drive motor and splined headshaft produce a lower speed and higher torque which provide superior ground penetration and low chain wear for better production results.
OPTIONAL WARRANTY
Vermeer Vantage Track Extended Care Service Program offers an optional 3-year/3000-hour or 5-year/5000-hour heavy equipment warranty on the components of the closed-loop hydrostatic system.
