Posthole Digger leinbach 7200Jr PHD pto problem

[akajun]

I had a similar problem with a Leinbach PHD that a friend let us borrow this past weekend. The PHD is brand new, never used, **** I had to cut the packing wire off of it and fill it with oil. . Anyway we go to hook it up to our jd 4610 and it wont slide on. IT just seems to rub on the outside. Measured it, it measured the same. However it would fit on my Yanmar 155d, probably cause its a 30 year old tractor with more wear on the pto shaft so we were able to do what we needed done. The driveline on the PHD was made in Spain if I remember right.

Yeh, mine did the same thing with just rubbing on the outside and wouldn't budge. The 2nd one I got (which I wouldn't exactly call 'new') fit fine after a little cleaning and I've taken it off and on several times now over the past month. I'm putting in a wood fence and sinking 8' x 7" 1/2 rounds, 3' in the ground and this thing works great!! I did break the sheer pin on the first practice hole, but that is why I did a practice hole. We tried to go too deep at first and all I can say is thank God for sheer pins!!! I've even mastered doing it solo, and as long as I continue to take it slow it works great!
