Continuing to set the standard.

At Vermeer, we’re proud to produce a product as respected and

successful as the D24x40 Series II. The versatility and power of this
machine has set a benchmark for the entirety of the HDD industry as
well as the Vermeer design team.

What makes this drill such a special entry in the Vermeer lineup?

Expect a high level of performance in a wide range of conditions with

a rotational torque of 4000 ft-lb (5423.3 Nm) and 24,000 lb (106.8
kN) of thrust/pullback force. This exceptional torque and pullback
force is combined with a 50 gpm (189.3 L/min) onboard variable
flow mud pump for maximized efficiency. And a tracking speed of 3
mph (4.8 k/hr) helps lessen setup time and allows for increased drill
maneuverability in difficult jobsite conditions.

For precise control of key drilling operations, dual electronic joysticks

are integrated into the ergonomically designed operator’s station.
Multifunction Display (MFD), an integrated remote display compatible
with select locator systems, is included as standard equipment.

At Vermeer, we pride ourselves on after-sale support. When you’re

facing tight deadlines while keeping an eye on the bottom line, you
can rest easy knowing you are supported by a local Vermeer dealer,
ready to go the extra mile with product, parts and service expertise.
