Fixing to buy a new hydraulic auger setup and have been debating whether it should be skidsteer mount or backhoe quickcoupler mount. Who has one of these animals and is it mounted front or rear.
PA 30 Planetary auger on a 110 backhoe

First, thanks for all the replies and helpful comments.
Went ahead this morning an ordered the setup to mount to the hoe with quick coupler, new 12" bucket, PA30 hydraulic unit, 6" and 12" augers.
After this stuff gets here I will see if I can modify my 18" bucket to work with the quick coupler or just buy a new one.
My reasoning was using the skidsteer mount meant the operator could not see the hole while drilling, just the top of the auger making it a two man job. With the backhoe mount it seems it would be easy to see and position especially with the creep to position on the 110.
Should be in a few days.
