Abstract: The invention relates to a trench cutter for producing a cut trench in the soil with a cutter frame, at least one pair of cutting wheels which are supported and driven in a rotatable manner on a lower end of the cutter frame, wherein each cutting wheel has a plurality of cutting teeth along its external circumference, and a discharge means with at least one discharge pump for discharging a cutting fluid from the cut trench in the region of the cutting wheels. According to the invention a switchover means is provided which is designed for switching the discharge means over to a flushing operation, in which a fluid flow generated by at least one discharge pump of the discharge means is generated onto at least one cutting wheel for flushing out the cutting wheel.
