A specially designed ditch cleaning machine [Nalah] is capable of removing silt and solid material from open nallahs of width about 1.5 meters and depth about 3 meters below ground level by hydraulically operated bucket and boom arrangement.
The machine is mounted on truck chassis. Scooped out silt/debris is to be offloaded directly in the collection body mounted on truck chassis and will be transported to the designated disposal ground where collected debris to be emptied by means of hydraulic tipping of the truck body.
Major components as under:
Truck chassis
Collection body
Hydraulically operated desilting machine
