Power Jetter Cleans Field Drain Tile
 ✖  |
We recently spotted this Dutch machine that works like a giant snake to unplug drainage tile without digging it up. The Homburg draincleaner slowly pushes a solid plastic hose into a tile line as far as 1,500 ft. while injecting a stream of water at up to 500 psi. Acting like a water-spewing snake, the draincleaner uses its proprietary nozzle to wash silt and other debris from the line. The patented system cleans the line without affecting the structure of the soil or the drain tile.
The hose is inserted into the line by hydraulic motors. A meter counter shows the operator the exact distance the cleaning hose has traveled into the drain. An optional remote allows the operator to control machine functions from a distance. Finding the hose head location in a line can also be done with an optional detection set that emits an electronic signal above ground as the line is being cleaned.
Nozzles push water out the front and rear. Different nozzle sizes are available to match the tile line size. Nozzle guides are used on larger diameter lines to ensure center placement of the cleaning hose.
All Homburg models mount on Category II or III 3-point hitches for easy tractor transport.
