📘 Overview

The Digga Bigfoot XD (BFT2) is a heavy-duty high-flow skid steer trencher for machines up to 8 tons — built with a 2" pitch chain (20% more torque than the standard BFT) and up to 48–60" digging depth, 6" chain width. Features Digga's patent-pending Head Start Crumber system, visible depth control foot, anti-back-flex chain, and a single spoil removal auger. Three chain options: Earth, Combination, Tungsten. Available in standard and high-flow models. SSQA. Made in Dyersville, Iowa, USA.

⚙️ Key Features

  • Bigfoot XD (BFT2) | Up to 48"-60" depth | 6" chain width | 2" pitch chain
  • 20% more torque than standard BFT (2" vs 1.654" chain pitch)
  • Head Start Crumber (patent pending) — starts in trench, no operator exit required
  • Visible adjustable depth foot — cab-visible, no spotter needed
  • Anti-back-flex chain — consistent engagement in hard soil
  • Single spoil removal auger for clean trench and consistent depth
  • Earth | Combination | Tungsten chain options
  • For machines up to 8T — skid steers, backhoes, mini excavators
  • SSQA | Made in Dyersville, Iowa, USA

🔑 Benefits

  • 2" pitch chain with 20% torque advantage handles tougher soil and deeper depth than standard BFT — for machines in the 4.5-8T class that exceed the BFT's recommended operating range, the XD's heavier chain and increased torque capacity keeps the trencher productive in compacted soil and at greater depths.
  • Head Start Crumber keeps operator in cab throughout the operation — the most critical safety improvement in chain trencher design — see BFT listing for full explanation. All XD safety benefits apply.
  • Single spoil auger provides consistent finely crumbled spoil for superior trench compaction on backfill — minimizes ground surface disturbance on either side of the trench, which matters on finished job sites and around existing paving.
  • High-flow variant extends compatibility to high-flow skid steers and larger backhoes that demand more hydraulic power

❓ FAQs

Q: BFT2 (XD) vs BFT?

BFT2 uses 2" pitch chain, up to 300mm (12") chain width, 20% more torque than BFT. BFT uses 1.654" pitch chain, up to 200mm (8") chain width. Choose BFT2 for heavier machines (up to 8T), harder soils, or applications requiring wider trench capability.

Q: What depth can the BFT2 achieve?

Up to 48" in standard models, up to 60" in high-flow models. Multiple preset depth control positions available via the visible adjustable foot.

Q: What chain type?

Earth: soft clean soil. Combination: hard/dry/medium conditions. Tungsten: frozen ground, hard rock, asphalt. Combination handles most typical mixed conditions.

Q: Why must skid steers trench in reverse?

The chain rotates with the bottom moving toward the machine. Trenching requires the machine to reverse (move away from the trench) so the chain cuts into new material. Forward travel causes chain jamming.

Q: What GPM does the XD require?

Contact eskidsteer.com for specific GPM requirements by XD model variant. High-flow variants require more GPM than standard models.
