Go-Anywhere Post Hole Digger
 ✖  |
Practically no space is too tight for the Ground-Hawg, gas powered post hole auger. Mounted on a platform with pneumatic wheels for easy maneuvering by hand, the one-man post hole auger can get in where a tractor or even skid steer would be stopped dead.
"We revamped an earlier model called Dr. Dig to make it beefier," says Ray Swords, DeepRock Manufacturing Co. "With the Ground-Hawg, one man can roll up and down a fence line or take it inside a building with a dirt floor. It can drill straight down or at up to a 30 degree angle."
The unit is powered by a 6 hp Tecumseh Powerhead with gearbox. It can drill holes up to 8 in. in diameter and 48 in. deep. The unit comes standard with an 8 by 30-in. auger and an 18-in. extension. Options include 2, 4, and 6-in. auger bits.
To operate the Ground-Hawg, the wheels are flipped up to rest the platform on the ground. Operator weight helps stabilize the drill. A chain drive hoist raises and lowers the auger for fingertip control.
The Ground-Hawg is priced at $1,811 within the lower 48 states. Customs fees apply in Canada, with extra shipping to Alaska, Hawaii and other locations.
