Posthole Digger Seen the PHD of PHDs!

[theboman]

Last week I showed a small horse farm, two awesome barns setup for horse lovers...anyhow, he had a big, BIG tractor, I think MaCormick maybe MF... I know it was big and it was red..had FEL. One side of the barn had a manure spreader and I seen a PHD auger around this other stuff, didn't really figure it out with a quick glance, the asked the home owner, what is that by the spreader?
He said my post hole digger. Then he explained it...wow.... It's all hydraulic. It sets in a frame, has legs and you level it all...has down force too, and he said he can lift that tractor off the ground with it! He pointed to where he dug holes and by golly...it was rock!
I forgot what he told me but $4k is ringing a bell...

That was my guess too, mjncad. It is easier to see here.

The newer tractors with larger pumps can run a hydraulic drive auger off the fel to. We plumbed a tn75 out on the loader and use a skidsteer auger on it. Has the ful downpressure of the fel and the abiltyto reverse a stuck bit.

@$2500 for that attachment.
