Versatility Unveiled: From Bed Edging to Trenching with the BE400
Landscapers and commercial contractors today need equipment that can do more in less time. Between bed edging, trenching, and installing irrigation or electrical cables, switching between multiple machines can slow down a project and increase labor costs. That’s where the EZ Trench BE400 steps in, offering multi-functionality and zero-turn maneuverability to tackle a variety of landscaping tasks without compromise.
In this post, we’ll explore how the BE400’s design, features, and versatility help professionals maximize efficiency, reduce operator fatigue, and achieve precise results across multiple applications.
The BE400: One Machine, Multiple Applications
The BE400 isn’t just a bed edger—it’s a complete landscaping solution. Its multi-function capabilities allow you to:
Edge flower beds and tree rings
Trench for irrigation, lighting, and electrical wiring
Install pavers with precision edging
By consolidating these tasks into a single machine, contractors can save time, reduce equipment costs, and improve workflow.
Edging Excellence with Zero-Turn Steering
A key feature of the BE400 is its zero-turn steering, which enables precise maneuvering in tight spaces. Whether navigating around trees, shrubs, or garden beds, the BE400 allows operators to:
Maintain consistent edging lines around curves and corners
Avoid multiple repositioning passes, saving time and energy
Reduce accidental damage to landscaping features
For landscaping contractors, zero-turn steering translates directly into efficiency and professionalism, helping crews complete projects faster while maintaining flawless aesthetics.
Trenching Made Simple
Beyond edging, the BE400 excels at trenching for cable, irrigation, or utilities. Its trenching capabilities include:
Adjustable trench depth on-the-fly: Tailor the trench for shallow irrigation lines or deeper electrical conduits.
Compatibility with cable and wire installation accessories: Reduce the need for additional equipment.
Clean, uniform trenches: Improve project quality and reduce the need for corrective work.
This versatility ensures that landscaping professionals don’t have to compromise—one machine can handle both precision edging and functional trenching projects.
