Abstract

An excavating apparatus having a rotating cutting head for precision removal of soil, for site preparation prior to construction projects where level grade is required. The powered cutting head is mounted on a longitudinal frame, with travel of the cutting head guided along the length of the frame. Adjustable positioning is provided to maintain position of the cutting head longitudinally along the frame. The frame is pivotally anchored to the ground at one end and is supported by wheels at the other end. Wheels are positioned to facilitate rotation of the frame and cutting head around the anchoring pivot, which is located at the center of the area to be excavated. The elevation of the frame is adjustable to selectively raise and lower the depth of the cutting head. The apparatus is easily transported and has the ability to perform precision excavating operations in confined areas.
