Trenching apparatus and a method of trenching
A trenching apparatus having a body moveable on the ground surface and a ground engagement boom associated with the body where the boom 12 being movable when engaged with the ground to form a trench. Lifting means are arranged to control and configure the ground engagement boom so as to enter the ground. The ground engaging boom is an endless chain ground-engaging boom, having a main body and a chain tensioner 100 coupled to the main body at or close to the upper end thereof. Optionally, the chain tensioner comprises an arm 102 pivotally coupled to the main body of the ground engagement boom. The arm is hydraulically controllable to move between a first closed position in which its distal end is close to the main body and a second deployed position in which its distal end is moved away from the main body to tension a chain arranged on the ground engagement boom. Optionally, an endless chain is mounted on the main body and the chain is a cutting or mixing chain.
