The Viper from Ring-O-Matic enables a single operator to create a 30-inch-deep pothole in as little as 30 seconds using cyclo-jet technology. It is available on the full line of Ring-O-Matic vacuum excavators, and only requires a single operator. Its vacuum shroud and orbital nozzle action keep the nozzle a minimum of 4 inches from utilities, while the orbital nozzle action exposes them. The vacuum shroud minimizes the operator’s exposure to jetted mud and debris. Containing dirt and mud this way reduces site cleanup time and cost after potholing has been completed. It is available with either a stainless steel tube or a dielectric tube. 800/544-2518; www.ring-o-matic.com.
