Front-End Loader FEL mounted post hole digger

[bandit67]

I'm not able to narrow down the search enough, so I'll ask in a new thread.

I'm looking for companies that sell hydraulic post hole diggers that can attach to the front end loader. Not too keen on the ones that bolt onto the side of the bucket, so I want one that can hook up to a QA. It'll be for a compact size machine up to 30hp +/-.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe check out Worksaver. They have several types of hydraulic units from the simple "strap on" type to the quick attach type.

Be sure to check your flow rate.

Here is another QA mounted unit with various augers and prices:

The downside to a quick attach PHD on a CUT, is the auger is in the middle of a skid steer type quick attach PHD. You can't see the tip of the auger because of the tractor and it is difficult to place tip precisely without the aid of someone else. I have a Bobcat model 15 PHD on my JD 3720 and live with that limitation but still much easier to use than rear PHD. The bit spins a little slow because of the flow rate, but the torque is there since the pressure is about the same. I did turn my JD hydraulic pressure up to near 2800 psi. Bobcat's run at 3000 psi. All the major skid steer companies probably have a hydraulic PHD. Many other aftermarket companies also available
