Bucket mount post hole digger

[R_Walter]

Anyone ever used one of these? Advantage seems to be you can get a lot of down prssure on the implement as opposed to the typical 3-point hitch mount. Also, can reverse the auger. Only need hydraulics to the front to run the ph digger's hydraulic motor.

Comments???

One of the problems with the bucket mount auger is that then that is all you can do with the loader. I use my bucket when I'm out using my PHD to carry fencing material and tools. You can get a 3pt hydraulic PHD if that is what you want and you can get a down pressure kit for most all 3pt PHD. As far as I know of, everyone here on TBN has been happy with their down pressure kits on their PHD. Just other options to consider.

I personally would not have a loader mounted PHD on a CUT or utility tractor. But that may just be me.

Good luck with your decision.

I see you have a SSQA on your loader. I use a hydraulic post hole digger on a SSQA with great success. I really like being able to see the auger and back it out if necessary.
