CONTROLLED FREEFALL SINGLE LAYER GROOVED WINCH
The controlled freefall is a critical part of productive drilling. The 1100`s controlled freefall rate of speed is adjustable to meet the needs of the operator and demands of the auger and bar arrangement. Combined with a grooved winch drum big enough to keep all of wire rope on one layer, speed and consistent pull are achieved along with unparalleled rope management.

DRY TELESCOPING SQUARE OR ROUND LOCKING BARS
Dry Kellys eliminate vulnerable hydraulic packings and potential for rod damage that cause wet kellys to leak. Watson`s crowd system allow for the use of multi element telescoping square or round locking bars which give you deeper options including short masts that can still reach 37` (11.3m).

TOP APPLIED KELLY CROWD SYSTEM
Watson`s top crowd system applies the downward force to the top of the kelly rather than through the wet kelly known to pressure diggers. By crowding from the top, the wear and tear on the rotary from crowd forces is eliminated while also allowing the operator to drill straighter holes.

NON-PERMIT LOAD ON 6X4 CHASSIS
Freedom from transport restrictions and avoidance of permit fees. Flexibility to mount on any suitable chassis such as 6x6 or even used chassis.

MECHANICAL OR HYDRAULIC ROTARY DRIVE SYSTEM
Rotary Drive is available as a mechanical or a hydraulic rotary. Mechanical rotaries are known for their speed and responsiveness in many different conditions while hydraulic rotaries are good for coring rock and allow the use of more kelly bar elements.

SHORT MAST MOBILITY
Most mast movement in the industry, to help get around electrical lines better than the competition.

MULTIPLE MAST LENGTH OPTIONS INCLUDING 23` SUPER SHORT
Mast length can be ordered in multiple different heighths. When coupled with telescoping Kelly bars (round or square), a wide range of drill depths are obtainable.

CUSTOMIZE TO YOUR APPLICATION
