Trenching apparatus and a method of trenching
A trenching apparatus having a body moveable on the ground surface and a ground engagement boom 12 associated with the body, the boom being movable when engaged with the ground to form a trench. Lifting means 26 are arranged to control and configure the ground engagement boom so as to enter the ground and to configure the boom to an inclined orientation in which the boom extends at least partially over the body of the apparatus. A protection chute 22 is provided on the body to protect the body from material that falls from the boom, when the boom is in the inclined orientation. Optionally the boom is a cutting boom in the form of an endless chain cutting boom or a mixing boom for mixing cement with earth in the trench. Optionally, the chute is sized to receive the entire part of the boom that extends over the body of the trenching apparatus when the ground engagement boom is in the inclined orientation and the chute is orientated at an angle to the horizontal plane of the trenching apparatus.
