Thegoatman22 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I am looking at maybe getting a one man hydraulic tow behind auger. What is your alls opinion on them. I need something that will dig in hard clay better, but can get places a tractor cant, mostly due to width. I have the sthil br 131 right now.

I was looking at their towable, you think this one is better. How does it react when it hits rocks and roots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fence Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 my vote is for the little beaver mechanical. 5 horse. ive owned them all. the hydraulic is slow. the mechanical will dig circles around the hydraulic. ive had a couple with the bigger engine it digs great but has enough power that breaking the pto cable was a problem...even with the slip clutch. plus it will kidney punch the hell outa you. I had a towbehind I dot rember the brand. it was yellow. it was a useless pos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
