DECKHAND® LT
Handles the big jobs with low cost & risk
The purpose-engineered DECKHAND® LT (DHLT) offers distribution and utility contractors a safe and cost-effective way to handle drill rod, pipe, and tooling on the job site.
DECKHAND® LT EXCAVATOR ATTACHMENT
Purpose-built and optimized for HDD, the DECKHAND® LT offers a safe and cost-effective way to handle drill rod, pipe, and tooling on the job site. The DECKHAND® LT with our Directional Drilling LT (DDLT) Arms gives you precision in loading drill rigs and moving pipe and casings around the work area. The DECKHAND® LT-SE model includes an electronics package that enables use with most of our DECKHAND® interchangeable arms.
The DECKHAND® system is a modular design that consists of a main head unit that works in tandem with interchangeable arm attachments. The head unit mounts to any brand of excavator; the excavator’s auxiliary hydraulics then safely and efficiently power the system. Interchangeable arms are used to pick up pipe, poles, casings, or road mats and securely lift, lower, rotate, and tilt the load under the total control of the operator inside the excavator cab.
