Post Hole Digger is the ideal implement to help with fence repairs, planting trees and much more around your farm.
A Post Hole Digger is an absolute must if you have a tractor, especially for farm owners or landscapers. They are perfect for fence repair, planting trees and burying dead animals. It’s hard work to dig a hole by hand, so having a 3 point post hole digger that is PTO driven is a real labor saver.
If you have to plant a lot of trees, this is the tool to own, not only will it save you alot of hard work but will make the work more efficient and will surely become one of your favourite implements.
Post Hole Digger Size Options
If you’re buying a post hole digger, there are a few options to think about. First, you’ll want to decide how large an auger to get. Although it is recommend getting more than one as each can help for different jobs around your farm. The most common, is a 12″ auger. A 12″ auger is great for planting a tree because most bare rooted or “balled and burlapped” trees require a big hole. A 9″ auger works well for most fence building, while pipe fences may only require a 6″ auger. You want the auger to be only slightly bigger than the post, so you have less filling in and compacting to do.
Post Hole Diggers are Low Maintenance
The only maintenance to a PHD is to check the gearbox oil and grease the PTO. If you buy a digger and it won’t go in the ground, it may have a dull point or tip. These are replaceable, so slap a replacement tip in it and it may dig like a new machine.
