Posthole Digger Hyd Posthole Auger on BX1860?

[onetrackmind]

Worksaver makes a hydraulic posthole auger with a minimum hyd flowrate of 5gpm. It is model 614H, and details are available here: http://www.worksaver.com/Manuals/924.pdf (see page 21) Note that the auger speed at 5gpm is 47 rpm.

Has anyone tried anything similar on a Kubota BX1860? I have rear hyd remotes, but I don't know the realistic flowrate that they can provide. Not sure whether I would try to mount to FEL or get the 3PH boom model.

I am most interested in the hyd model, for its reversibility. I am hoping to be able to auger 12 in. dia holes. Maybe too much to ask of my little tractor...

Thanks for advice.

I think you are really pushing it unless you have ideal soil conditions.
