Information

2024 Vermeer® Trenchers, Plows, Rockwheels RTX550

RTX550 is a versatile answer to many of your utility installation jobsite challenges.

With your choice of rubber tires or a quad-track system, the RTX550 is equipped for most terrains. A wide selection of attachment options such as a trencher, vibratory plow and rockwheel, make it equipped for most job applications. An integrated system display is user-friendly, and a 65-hp (48.5 kW) Cummins diesel engine delivers all the power you need.

Features may include:

Knowledge on display
  • An integrated system display allows the operator to easily monitor important machine functions, while the capability to monitor percentage of hydrostatic capacity use is especially useful when training new operators.
Make sense of your trench
  • The TrenchSense™ electronic control system can react faster than the operator to prevent engine stall/stop when difficult digging conditions are encountered. By eliminating the need to return controls to neutral and restart, productivity can be increased, and the whole sequence occurs within seconds.
In control
  • Common controls across the RTX lineup help the operator become more efficient and productive.
Three ground drive configurations
  • The RTX550 is available in three ground drive configurations: a standard 31 in (78.7 cm) tire option, a 35 in (88.9 cm) tire option for enhanced flotation and quad tracks for reduced surface damage and increased tractive effort.
