hey nice vid. I have a Emax 20hst and with my post hold digger I had the problem with the end of the auger touching even when fully lifted. Can not remember who made the comment but advised me to change the pegs on the connection so the 3 point lift arms are closer together , I did and got a few more inches of lift great job digging the holes, the auger makes fast work of it Glenn.
Have you tried with and without the gearbox handle and decided it wasn’t useful? Also wondering if you did anything to prevent the 3pt connection sway. In the instructions the manual says to install something to prevent sway.
Hey Bill, this is a great observation and definitely something that should be considered when doing any digging! Out here in the country most of the utilities are in the air and I know where the underground ones are at my home since we have been here several years. Plus we were only 2-3 inches below the surface. Thanks for watching!
Looks nice but next time usea string line on top of fence pickets .along each line of fence. You will be surprised by the results especially on a level job like that. You see tops of fence not ground level. No more than 8-9" of tops above 2x4 same on bottom. Every body is a critic..lol.i like your post hole set up I have same tractor.
I haven’t figured that out. It’s a lot less stressful than being on a timeframe from a rental company and it’s really quick. Usually 20-30 seconds per hole. Thanks for watching!!
wouldnt the property line go out to that ugly high chain link fence- would have butted up and maybe left a foot but, as tall as that school fence or whatever- guess he make 2 back yards- lol
Awesome! I have the same tractor in the same auger works. Awesome. Bought it after watching your video. Thanks so much.

Just a thought. I hope that you have the utilities marked before you dig.

That’s a great idea, thank you!
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching!
Any idea how many days it would take to do 25k holes if I worked 6 hours a day
No but best of luck!
Nice!
Thanks!
How much does it cost to dig per hole(not post or cement)
I haven’t figured that out. It’s a lot less stressful than being on a timeframe from a rental company and it’s really quick. Usually 20-30 seconds per hole.
Thanks for watching!!
Does the pto reverse?
No it does not.
Your auger is going down at an angle
What post hole digger do you use?
It's a county line from Tractor Supply Co. In this video I'm using the 9" auger.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you
why did the owner cut his yard in half again? dude said so fence is paralell with house and give up usable land- im confused
