ABSTRACT:
A post hole digger comprising a borer, an hydraulic driving motor for reversibly driving the borer and a frame on which the borer is mounted is described. This post hole digger has the advantage of being able to be disengaged from a hole being bored if the borer should become stuck. In addition, torque reaction from the borer striking obstructions is absorbed by the hydraulic relief valve. The borer and hydraulic motor are at opposite ends of the frame which has a fulcrum in between to allow the weight of one to counterbalance the weight of the other for ease of operation.
