Horizontal Directional

Drilling System
Highest Power-to-
Size In Its Class
Powered by a turbo-charged, Tier II 47 HP
(35 kw) Kubota engine, the D7x11 Series
II features 1300 ft-lb (1762 Nm) of
rotational torque and 9000 lb (4082 kg) of
thrust/pullback making it easy to install
product efficiently. Dual hydrostatic pumps
provide dedicated hydraulics to power
specific functions. An increased carriage
speed of 105 ft/min (32 m/min) improves
efficiency for faster cycle times.
A small footprint provides increased
access to confined areas and heightens
machine maneuverability. A width of 35.5
(90.2 cm) allows the machine to transport
through and fit into narrow areas.
The D7x11 Series II features open-top
vise system, floating head, dual
stakedowns and 6 (1.8 m) sections of
FIRESTICK

drill stem to enhance

efficiency. FIRESTICK threads are
precision machined and feature a coarse
design for faster makeup and breakout,
and longer joint life.
Extensive steps have been taken to
produce a quiet machine that fits the
needs of customers performing residential
work and provides a lower decibel level for
operators. With options including a 25 gal
(95 L) onboard tank and optional steel or
rubber tracks, the D7x11 Series II is your
clear choice for small-diameter
installations.
Protect your investment. The industry-exclusive
Vermeer Equipment Limited Warranty offers you peace of
mind by providing 4 years/4000 hours of warranty protection
on all rack and pinion gears.
Largest power-to-size ratio in its class. No other
directional drill delivers this much power (1300 ft-lb of rotary
torque and 9000 lb of thrust/pullback) in such a compact
package. Its small size makes it adept at maneuvering in
tight work sites.
Improving Short Distance Boring.
A rack and pinion
carriage drive eliminates chain
maintenance. Bolt-on gear rack sec-
tions make replacement simple as
compared to welded-on gear sections.
Eliminate unnecessary
hand movement. With the
vise controls integrated into
the right side joystick, theres
no need for the operators
hand to leave the joystick in
order to operate the vise
controls.
