Protect yourinvestment.The industry-exclusiveVermeer equipmentlimited warranty offersyou peace of mind by providing additional lifetime warranty protection on all rack-and-pinion gears.

Sliding tracks adjust outward for improved stability in uneventerrain. With the tracks returned to the inward position, theD16x20 Series II has a compact footprint which allows entry toconfined jobsites and side-by-side trailering with many modulardrilling fluid mix systems models.

Operator’s station. The D16x20 Series ll integrates primary drilling functions into an operator’s station designed for increased operator comfort and productivity.

Big Power,Small Footprint.

For over a decade, Vermeer Navigator®

horizontal directional drills have helped

thread the utilities which make up our modern

infrastructure. Vermeer continues the tradition

with the D16x20 Series II, designed with

intelligent features on a compact frame.

Powered by 65 hp (48.5 kW) Kubota diesel

engine providing 16,000 lb (7257.5 kg) of

thrust/ pullback force and 2,000 ft-lb

(2,711.6 Nm) of torque, the D16x20 Series II

brings performance to a wide range of bores.

Designed with a similar configuration to

other Vermeer HDDs, precise fingertip controls

are mounted on two joysticks within the

comfortable operator’s station. A one-piece

hood provides easy access to the engine

compartment and hydraulic components.

The D16x20 Series II is also equipped with

a 25 gpm (94.6 L/min) onboard pump that

provides high flow in larger-diameter bores

and increases efficiency while backreaming.

Plus, the pump doubles as a high-pressure

washer for quick cleanup at the end of the day.

AutoDrill allows the operatorto set thrust/pullback speed,thrust/pullback pressure, orrotation pressure mode whiledrilling in changing soil conditions. The patent- pending Auto Resume functionallows slurry/cuttings to mixbefore thrust/pullbackresumes.
