https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trencher_(machine)
A trencher is a piece of construction equipment used to dig trenches, especially for laying pipes or electrical cables, for installing drainage, or in preparation for trench warfare. Trenchers may range in size from walk-behind models, to attachments for a skid loader or tractor, to very heavy tracked heavy equipment.

Happen to be familiar with this piece of equipment.
"ditching machine" is comparatively rare next to "trenching machine", which in turn is rare next to "trencher". I don't know how many glosses we want to give, but "trencher" is quite versatile.
"ditching machine" site:twitter.com one hit?

"trencher" site:twitter.com some people are named "trencher", so it's a bit hard to gauge. Lots with pics though.
"trench digging machine" is more of a definition than a gloss, but it's the literal translation of the kanji, and serves to disambiguate. |
