The PT160-4H/4 is capable of pulling or tensioning 1-2-3-4 conductors. This design integrates 4 hydraulic controls to operate four independently controlled bullwheels offering the capability of tensioning 4 conductors.
The bull wheels may be coupled for increased pull or tension control of two conductors.
The PT160-4H/4 is specially equipped with a heavy duty hydraulic cooler to ensure proper operating temperature of the hydraulic system. The engine and pumps include a sound abatement enclosure.
The skid mounted model includes a hydraulic rear mounted plow stabilizer. This model is also available in an integral trailer design.
