The invention includes digging equipment having a self-propelled base machine provided with an arm that supports a digging tool. The digging tool is provided with a device for crumbling soil. The digging tool is operatively connected to the base machine through a suspending flexible element that can be wound or unwound by a winch arranged on the base machine. The base machine also includes a main power engine, to actuate all the hydraulic apparatuses of the digging equipment, and a hydraulic system consisting of two independent and separate hydraulic circuits (S; U). A first hydraulic circuit (S) is configured to control and supply the main service apparatuses of the base machine, including a movement apparatus for moving the digging tool. A second hydraulic circuit (U) is configured to control and supply the main digging apparatuses of the digging tool, including at least the actuators of the device for crumbling soil.
