Advantages of Prairie Dog Boring Machines Small, lightweight and inexpensive compared to competitive products Carbide tipped bits and Back Reamers allow the machine to handle boring through the toughest conditions (including rocks) Very low operating costs Easy to operate, 1-2 operators can handle and operate the machines (except for the heavier models) Ideal machines for non destructive boring with Low Environmental Impact, No road cuts required. Sturdy Frames and long operational life Operates Above or Below Ground Best suited for : Laying water and sewerage lines Electrical conduits and wires Irrigation lines and conduits/pipes Telephone lines Gas lines Parks
Criteria for selection The machines are sorted on the basis of bore dia, bore length and engine power Bore Dia Bore Length Engine Power Model Weight Type Hand held, Two cycle Engine sealed spur gear with centrifugal clutch 50 feet 1.4 HP 26 lb 2 -5 140HW 100 feet 5.5 HP Wheel Mounted, Sealed spur gear with centrifugal clutch 135 lb 2 -6 500RTW Rail Mounted, Sealed spur gear with centrifugal clutch, rack and pinion advance 100 feet 5.5 HP 125 lb 2 -6 500TW Rail Mounted, Rotary vein Air Motor, Planetary Transmission with Forward and Reverse Rack & Pinion advance 150 feet 9 hp 325 lb 2 -14 700TWA Wheel Mounted, Planetary Transmission with Forward and Reverse.

Rack & Pinion advance 300 feet 18 HP 395 lb 3 -28 1800TW
How it works- Simple 7 step procedure Step 1: Dig trenches on either side of the road up to desired depth, one trench to accommodate the machine and the other for come-out hole. Come out hole Trench for machine
Step 2: Lower the machine into the trench and attach the first Drill Rod and Pilot Bit at the end. Attach the water hose and start engine. Start moving the machine forward.
Step 3: As each joint of Drill Rod is pushed into the ground a new one is added behind.
Step 3: (Contd..) Keep on adding Drill Rods until the Pilot Bit reaches the come-out hole.
Step 4: Remove the Pilot Bit and screw on the Backreamer
Step 5: Start moving the machine backwards and start removing the Drill Rods as it becomes completely exposed (at machine end)
Step 6: Once the Backreamer reaches the start point cleanup the hole with a Pull-plate (if required).
Step 7: Slide in the pipe while the hole is still lubricated with slush Note: The above steps are for illustration purpose only. Please read the user manual and safety instructions (supplied with the machine) before operating.
