All-Hydraulic Technology Means No Belts, Chains or Gears
Greg Barreto built the first all-hydraulic tiller in 1983 because he was tired of replacing the belts, chains and gears that were constantly breaking down on the tillers where he worked. Deciding there had to be a better way, he experimented with hydraulic power and discovered that, by removing the need for belts, chains and gears, he removed the need for constant maintenance.
That first Barreto tiller was so reliable, it worked in a rental yard for over 20 years! When Greg introduced trenchers, he started hearing things from rental yard owners such as "trenchers were never a money maker for me, until we bought the Barreto." And "our guys do a lot of trenching every year, and the Barreto trencher is the only machine that can stand up to the conditions."
Since Greg introduced all-hydraulic technology to tillers and trenchers, industry leaders followed, with imitating all-hydraulic equipment. But Barreto Manufacturing was first, and the Barreto 1320 Tiller remains the industry standard by which all other tillers are measured.
Improvements in tillers and trenchers that have resulted in the following "firsts":
First all-hydraulic tiller introduced 1983
First all-hydraulic trencher introduced 1995
First self-propelled mini-trencher introduced 2005
First steerable trencher with zero turning radius introduced 2007.
