Shame my tractor isn't as capable as this auger!

My property has yellow sand/clay mix, red clay, and a massive amount of quartz rock! This unit is wonderful. If your tractor is on the lower end of the hp rating window, mine is 24.5, then be sure to raise and lower multiple times to keep from getting the auger stuck! I had to dig it out by hand 4 times. Now I know that I would rather error on the side of caution and raise it more times than needed than to spend the time to dig the auger out! With any unit read the manual, check the gear box lube, and know there is no miracle machine. My uncle has a cheap 3pt post hole digger that doesn't work well. I bought this one and know that it is worth the extra $ even though it hurt to spend! Check the cutting edge bolts from time to time. They are 1/2" - 20. When they come loose and get lost, if you live in a rural area, you will get very mad trying to locate these! My local TSC and Home Depot do not carry 1/2" - 20 bolts. McBride Hardware may but is closed on Sundays so I am upset that I can neither find the bolts, auger points and cutting edges on Agrisupply.com. Other than that I not only recommend this post hole digger, if you were family, I would insist that this be the unit you purchase if you are in the market for a 3pt post hole digger.
