Application
Land Pride offers a complete line of post hole diggers
designed to meet a wide range of customer needs and
applications. Our HD25 and HD35 series post hole
diggers are hydraulically driven and accommodate
augers ranging from 6" to 24" in diameter. They can be
purchased with a bolt-on mount for mounting to the side
of a bucket on a tractor front-end loader, with a boom for
mounting to a cat. I or II 3-point hitch, or skid/loader
mount for attaching to a skid steer or to a tractor front-end
loader with a front loader hitch mount. The HD25 series
requires a hydraulic flow system capable of producing 5
to 12 GPM and the HD35 series requires a hydraulic
system capable of producing 10 to 25 GPM.
The digging performance of the bucket mounted and
universal quick hitch mounted Post Hole Diggers can be
improved in heavy hardened soil conditions by applying
additional down pressure with the front-end loader. An
optional hydraulic down pressure kit is available to
improve the performance of the 3-point boom mounted
Post Hole Diggers. The ability to reverse the auger on
hydraulic Post Hole Diggers greatly reduces the strain on
the auger and skid steer or tractor when extracting the
digger from the ground.
The HD25 series are designed to deliver up to 700 ft-lbs
of torque to meet the heavy duty needs of nurseries,
landscapers, contractors, construction companies,
farmers, ranchers, and municipalities. The HD35 series
will deliver up to 1,605 ft-lbs of torque when industrial
duty is preferred.
No matter what your post hole digging needs are, Land
Pride has a model to meet those needs.
