Manhole Cutter

Contact us for current availability.

Overview

MMC 950 manhole cutter designed for the Multihog MH tractor, used for new road construction and restoration of pre-cast manhole units. Exposes a manhole in 1–3 minutes with no water cooling required.

Key Features

300 mm (12 in) cutting depth for full manhole exposure

Exposes one manhole in 1–3 minutes, drastically reducing work times

Designed for use on the Multihog MH tractor

No water cooling necessary during operation

Handles contact with gravel or rocks without issue

Hard-wearing design with low cutter-tool replacement cost

Range of interchangeable cutter heads supports other cutting applications

Transports between work sites on the front of the Multihog, saving time and money

Who This Is For

Utility contractors, road construction crews, and municipal water/sewer departments that expose manholes for inspection, raise pre-cast units during resurfacing, or set new covers during new road construction. A strong fit for teams currently saw-cutting and hand-excavating around manhole rims.

Ideal Applications

New road construction where manhole rims must be cut to grade

Restoration and raising of pre-cast manhole units after overlay

Exposing buried manholes for inspection or repair

Storm and sanitary sewer access cutting

Utility chamber and valve-box exposure on municipal streets

What Sets It Apart

Exposing a manhole in 1–3 minutes with a 300 mm (12 in) cutting depth eliminates the hours that saw-cut-and-jackhammer crews typically spend per unit. Because no water cooling is required and the tool shrugs off contact with gravel and rocks, operators avoid the water-truck logistics and blade-damage downtime of diamond saws. Increased work quality through optimum compaction plus low replacement-tool cost means lower whole-life cost versus conventional core-and-break methods.

Common Upgrade Path

Replaces walk-behind concrete saws, jackhammer crews, and manual excavation around manhole rims. One Multihog MH operator handles what used to take a full saw-and-breaker team.

When to Consider a Different Model

Not intended for surface planing or pothole patch repair, use the Patch Planer (MBP 450) for 150 mm depth asphalt milling across wider patch areas.
