A Look In More Depth:

In keeping with all TerraMacs products, the Micro Tunnellers are designed to provide maxium versatility and choice of operating mode. Machines can be geared and configured on supply to suit specific requirements or modes or they can be supplied with a range of speeds and ancillary equipment to 'futureproof' operational needs.
