Grave digging

[Bever22]

Has anyone used a 2310 to dig a grave? I was asked by a local cemetery if I would dig graves for them but I don't know if the machine will go deep enough. I really don't know how deep they need to be, any info? thanks in advance.

8'6" at the bottom.
Don't ask me how I know.

2310 not a good grave digger. Will not dig deep enough. Ideally, there is also a special bucket used for this.

I believe 8'6" is a bit deep. Top of the vault ends up about 18" below the ground and the vault is about 4' tall. So around 6' is what your shooting for.
I've been the superintendent of a small cemetery for about 5 years now so that's been my experience....Could be different in other parts of the country.

Here in NY, many years ago, it was 4'6". Came up to my chest digging them by hand in sandy soil. Grampa had a stick to confirm uniform length width and depth.

It would be interesting to see all of the different things people do with their tractors other than till or mow.
