The auger is a power take-off (PTO)–driven implement, eliminating the need for a separate engine or motor. Power is transferred directly from the compact tractor engine to the auger through the PTO. Simply attach the post-hole auger to the tractor’s 3-point hitch and engage the PTO shaft to begin operation. When using this implement, it is important to understand whether your tractor is equipped with an independent PTO or live PTO; always review the owner’s manual before use.This compact tractor attachment—commonly known as a post-hole digger—allows you to install fence posts, plant trees, or dig footings with professional results. Built for long-term durability and reliable performance, it is easy to attach to the 3-point hitch and rear PTO so you can get to work quickly. Complete jobs faster and more comfortably from the operator’s seat of your compact tractor.
