Uses a power source of your choice: Hydraulic, Air, Electric, or Gas Breakers. Just specify collet size of your breaker and the correct tapered shank will be delivered with the unit: 7/8 x 3 1/4 , 7/8 x 4 1/4 , 1 x 4 1/4 , 1 1/8 x 6 , or 1 1/4 x 6 shanks are available. Safe: Operator stands on the ground regardless of rod length. Portable: Weighs only 28 pounds, without the breaker.Effective: The chuck supports the rod near ground level, minimizing vibration in the rod, which can be 6, 8, 12 or 16 feet long, assuring a comfortable and safe position for the operator. Couplings can be installed between sections of rod when the joint is between the driver and ground level.Efficient: The same breaker is used for other work from the power source on the line vehicle. Driver can be used with breakers for 30 to 60 pounds.Reliable: No moving parts to wear out. Made from high impact tool steel hardened to withstand the most difficult conditions.
