See full text

Hard ground beneath a water surface is controllably cut away by a device ch includes a buoyant body having a work support depending therefrom and forced against the hard ground so as partially to support the weight of the body. A cutter assembly is releasably clamped to the work support and the clamp has arms connecting it to a short, rigid carrier which mounts a rotatable cutter head at one end. The arms allow the carrier to swing about a horizontal axis and a vertical axis and hydraulic motors are provided to sweep the carrier about such axes in controlled fashion. A winch on the body allows the carrier to be clamped at desired vertical positions on the work support.
