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.

See 

“Specifications & Capacities” 

on page 27 and 

“Features & Benefits”

 on page 29 for additional 

information and performance enhancing options.
