4/3/19
Kubota welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners. This Post Hole Digger has been
designed with care and built by skilled workers using
quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and
safe operating practices will help you get years of
satisfactory use from this Post Hole Digger.
Application
Kubota offers a complete line of Post Hole Diggers
designed to meet a wide range of customer needs and
applications. Our SA20 Post Hole Digger is hydraulically
driven with a planetary gearbox and can accommodate
augers ranging from 9" to 36" in diameter. They can be
purchased with a hitch plate for attaching to a skid steer
or tractor front-end loader equipped with a skid/loader
plate. The SA20 features 2 motor options to
accommodate hydraulic flow systems ranging from 10 to
30 gpm.
The SA20 is designed to deliver up to 2621 ft-lbs of
torque to meet the heavy duty needs of nurseries,
landscapers, contractors, construction companies,
farmers, ranchers, and municipalities. No matter what
your post hole digging needs are, Kubota has a model to
meet those needs.
The digging performance can be improved in heavy
hardened soil conditions by applying additional down
pressure with the loader arms. The ability to reverse
auger rotation greatly reduces strain on auger and skid
steer/tractor when extracting auger from the ground.

“Specifications & Capacities”
