2013 Ditch Witch RT80 with under 600 hours, in excellent condition. This versatile machine is built for serious trenching and excavation, featuring the H813 trencher (6" wide, up to 7' deep) and the A523 backhoe with a 12" bucket. A front counterweight is included for added stability when the backhoe is removed.

Powered by a robust 74.5 HP turbocharged Deutz T3 Flex diesel engine, this unit handles heavy-duty trenching and vibratory plowing with ease. The backhoe pedestal seat offers precise control, including throttle, low-speed forward/reverse, and full backfill blade articulation (up/down, tilt, and yaw).

Exceptionally maintained, with all service completed by Ditch Witch, most recently in January 2025. Service records and the operator’s manual are included. This RT80 is a true workhorse—capable of cutting through deep roots effortlessly and outperforming even the largest rental trenchers.

Can I review inspection photos and a condition report before I buy?

Yes. Listings include detailed photos and, when available, an inspection or condition summary so you can see wear, leaks, undercarriage, and cab condition. Ask your representative for the latest meter reading and any service records the seller can provide—hours and condition are often verified at listing time but can change.

Do you arrange shipping or delivery?

Shipping and logistics are often available nationwide through vetted transport partners. Cost depends on distance, dimensions, weight, and whether the machine is running and load-ready. Your sales representative can quote options and timing; pickup at the equipment location may also be arranged where allowed.

How accurate is the hour meter, and can I verify it?

Published hours reflect the last reported reading on the machine or in available documentation. Meters can be replaced or incorrect; we recommend confirming hours with your own inspection or a qualified technician before purchase. Ask whether an ECM or telematics readout is available for your unit.

Is the machine sold as-is, and is there a warranty?

Used heavy equipment is often sold as-is, where-is, unless a separate written warranty or service plan is offered on your specific deal. Remaining manufacturer or extended coverage, if any, may be transferable—confirm in writing. Always review the purchase agreement and inspection terms before committing.

What paperwork should I expect (title, lien release, export)?

Expect a bill of sale and any title or ownership documents required in your state or country. If the unit was financed, ensure lien release is documented. For export, additional customs, EPA, or certification paperwork may apply—your representative can flag what is needed for your destination.
