Ditch Witch TK

Would Overview be a better description of the first section than Introduction?Can we modify the background to move the Ditch Witch up and over just a bit. It looks shoved in the proverbial corner.1 TK TK OverviewTK1 , , TKD2 , , TKQ4 , , TD TDR ( )TX , TXH , TXQ4 , TXQG4 , 0,1% , TSR Replaced minimal features with basic features.Modified the title a bit.Changed the last designator to a smaller font, since thats the way it will appear in literature, etc. and its actually easier on the eyes.Changed to Lowest Price, Moderate Price, and Highest Price instead of the current . & price range wording.Highlight the third, subtext letter in the name and in the description to make it obvious what each designator is supposed to represent.Capitalized all the words, as some were and some werent.

I think this looks less busy, but actually contains more of the basic comparative info that I feel was lacking in the other version.

Modified title a bit.Eliminated duplication of kHz, to make easier on the eyes, less crowded, etc. Added three more columns in the Tracker section, so that we could provide a bit more comparative info. This required reducing the font (aided by eliminating the repetitive kHz), etc. These may not be the most important comparative features to add, but I suspect they are.I eliminated the Display section altogether, as it added no more information than what was already presented on an earlier (Product Nomenclature) slide.

That should help drive it home.

Operation

First statement doesnt add much value. Id delete it.Capitalize the names of the keys when referenced in the text.I would modify to say Use the Up/Down keys to scroll through the options on the menu screen. (These are really display options vs. features.) Also, I would pick one to highlight, as if you had scrolled to it.I would say Use the Select key to choose the desired option. Repeat Menu key in last item.

What is the anticipated ship date for the TK System?All TK system trackers, displays and beacons are planned to begin shipping to dealers by January 31, 2013, except for the least expensive of the three trackers, the TK. The TK will not ship until February 18th, 2013.Does the TK System replace the 8500 system?No. The 8500 has unique capabilities not offered with the TK system, including off-set locate and higher accuracy, as well as the ability to work with the Grade Pole system. However, the TD and TDR displays are compatible with the 8500TK and will replace the 850D, bringing greatly improved readability vs. the current display.Will the 8500TK screen be upgraded to the TK screen technology?Not in the immediate future. If/when we do so will depend, in part, on how much demand we have for the 8500TK after introducing the new TK system.How long will the 750/752 system be in production?We plan to continue producing the 750/752 for 3 months after the initial TK system ship date, to allow the sales force time to transition customers to the new TK series. How long will CMW continue to support the 750/752 platform?The lessor of 5 years from the date the product is discontinued, or when components become unavailable to procure.

FAQsHow long will the 86Bv2 be in production?We plan to keep producing the 86Bv2 for at least 24 months after the initial TK system ship date, while the sales force transitions customers to the TK series and its beacons.

How long will CMW continue to support the 86Bv2?The lessor of 5 years from the date the product is discontinued, or when components become unavailable..

Will you offer a trade-In program for customers that have older tracking equipment? No. We believe a customer can sell used equipment for a much greater value than an appropriate trade-in incentive. We believe the price and features of the TK products are compelling enough to motivate customers to buy. However, we will proactively develop incentive program options, in the event we determine a program is needed at some point in the future.

Will you offer single frequency beacons in other frequencies besides 29 kHz? Will you offer a single frequency grade beacon? No. One frequency and standard pitch were chosen to keep the offering simple and cost effective for the entry level TK tracker. The 29 kHz frequency performs well in most jobsite conditions. However, we will monitor sales and dealer feedback to confirm our perceptions are accurate.

Will the 88B be replaced by a TX version?No. The TK system has the ability to operate with the current 88B.

FAQsWill the 86BHL be replaced by a TX version?No. The TK system has the ability to operate with the 86BHL. The TX beacons can be used with an existing tool adapter, part number 220-051.

Does the TK system include a 1 diameter, 15 or 19-inch long beacon, comparable to what DCI sells?Not initially. However our current product development plans include that product. In fact, the mechanical design is well underway.

Does the TK system work with the Grade Pole?No. The 8500 has unique capabilities required for the Grade Pole system.

Can a TK or TKD be upgraded to a higher model?Yes. A TK can be upgraded to a TKD or a TKQ, although the work must be done at the factory. Pricing and availability of these upgrades is still being determined.

Can an 86Bv2 beacon be upgraded to a TX beacon?Yes. The dealers will be able to perform this service themselves. The upgrade modules will be available on the January 31, 2013 TK system initial ship date.

FAQsCan existing Ditch Witch drills be retrofitted with the in-dash (TD) display?Yes, with the exception of the JT5 and the JT922, they will require the TDR on-the-dash display. Additional information on kit numbers and price will be published when shipment starts.

Does the new TK series of trackers have a stand?Yes. We will have an option to purchase a stand the same diameter (approximately 15) as the 750/752 stand. A smaller diameter stand (approximately 10) will be shipped with each tracker.

What is the DrillTo distance?The distance varies based on the depth, beacon output power and the local noise. The maximum distance in ideal conditions can be up to 100 feet.

Do the TK trackers have offset locate capability?No. Offset locate capability requires two offset antennas like the 8500TK.
