A versatile machine produced by Keene that can be used as a highbanker or can be equipped as a 2 ½" dredge. The larger Marlex hopper washes and classifies materials to minus ½" with a high pressure washing system that maintains fine gold recovery. The leg support system can be adjusted to suit any terrain. The highbanker can be used hundreds of feet from a water source. The 173 is powered with a Honda GX120 that is equipped with a P160 pump that delivers 150 GPM. Also equipped with 50 ft of 1-1/4" pressure hose, FVA20 foot valve and hose assembly.
This is our 173 Dredge Conversion with the addition of a 2 1/2 inch dredge suction nozzle, 10 feet of 2 1/2 inch suction hose and 12 feet of additional pressure hose to extend the suction system.
