Back to Barlows...Post hole digger for B3200

[JOHNTHOMAS]

I had decided to attach a 2"x6"x6' to my tractor bldg wall with the biggest hinge Lowes has in stock. I asked a friend working there that is also a farmer if he thought the hinge would hold the digger. He and another employee thought no. My friend says he has some plate steel and he'll make me a plate that goes up the wall with a rod to pivot a 6' tube steel arm that will do the job for $25 to $30. Told him to do it and call when ready.

I've had one on and off a few times, I let the auger down to the ground, unhook the PTO then pull the pin out of the boom at the gearbox, it's pretty easy to handle just the gearbox and auger with the PTO folded along the auger. Then I pull the pin from the boom at the arch and let the arch fall forward, take out the top TPH pin in the end of the boom and lay the boom aside then unhook the arch from the TPH. When I put it back on, I put the arch on first, then the boom, then the gearbox and auger then hook up the PTO. one person with two bad shoulders can do it piece at a time.

Whew! I got confused and tired just READING that!!

Took longer to type it up than it does to remove, just two pins and the PTO, plus the bottom two on the TPH, but with the Pats Easy Change, just lift it out of the hooks.
