This Highway Hfms is a vertical drill — also known as a digger derrick — a truck-mounted drilling machine used to bore holes into the ground for the installation of utility poles, anchors, and similar infrastructure. Highway Equipment is a recognised manufacturer of truck-mounted digger derricks and utility equipment, serving the utility, telecommunications, and construction industries.
This 2008 unit is built on an IHC 7300 chassis configured as a 4x4, powered by a DT-466 diesel engine and paired with an Allison automatic transmission. The truck rides on 11.00R22.5 tires fitted to steel hub pilot wheels and is equipped with air brakes, power steering, and air conditioning, making it a complete, ready-to-work platform.
The drilling equipment itself is powered by a John Deere engine and features a 4-inch Kelly bar, with the rig capable of drilling holes up to 72 inches in diameter. That capacity makes it well suited to large-diameter pole installation and similar heavy utility work.
The machine is located in Texas, USA, and is offered in used condition.
