I have a 3023 Trencher. I have found out that it was made by Berkene and has Bobcat name. Has Kabota engine and runs very well.
I have a problem with the drive on it. It was jerking when in forward gear but was smooth in reverse. Local dealer told me the the hydro should be good but it might have a linkage problem. I checked linkage and it seemed tight.
I ran a 40' trench yesterday and it did OK but when driving it out of the way it quit driving. Now it has no forward or reverse. Hydraulics are still working good and I used the chain to move it out of the way.
It also has wiring problems under the dash but Berkene wants $65. just for the schmatic, not very good customer service if you ask me!
