    The dreaded post hole auger

    I do think this should work, I just need to fix my tractor

    The dreaded post hole auger

    I'm too stubborn to hire people. That said, if I had thought this out in the spring there might have been time to find someone. Everyone who does any sort of work like that has a huge lead time, so it's too late now to get it done before the ground freezes, and they will charge absurd amounts...

    The dreaded post hole auger

    The funny thing was I initially debated attaching the 2 stroke auger to the bucket or making a mount for it. I unfortunately do not have a fork attachment that fits this tractor, which is too bad as making fork compatible attachments is generally easiest. I decided not to pursue it as the...

    The dreaded post hole auger

    Ah, so this didn't work. First hole, it didn't want to feed. I brilliantly figured it just needed a little more weight so I put my fabricobbler hat on and modded the thing up right stupid. Basically just some 1" sch 80 that I welded on with a nut in the end and a T bolt to safety it. I...

    The dreaded post hole auger

    If I'm trying to put a 36" hole in something then we've got bigger problems than my tractor being too small. :LOL:

    The dreaded post hole auger

    I don't know what you wrote but I just got home from buying the thing. I'll see how well it works tomorrow. Edit, actually I do know what you posted originally. Apparently you don't understand "gallows humour", which is common in countries that have dysfunctional authoritarian governments.

    The dreaded post hole auger

    Ah, you're not quite right there. I'm in Canada, so the shoulder replacement would be free. However, they aren't really doing that sort of complicated healthcare anymore, bit of a waiting list and all that, so they would offer me medically assisted suicide instead. They say they haven't had...

    The dreaded post hole auger

    Let's clarify that my hands, well, shoulders, are what has failed. The human body is not meant to have that sort of thing happen to it. No real specs given on this. One star reviews are always reassuring. It has a better screw design on the tip of the auger than what I was using. I don't...

    The dreaded post hole auger

    I wonder if you really need that much power. The 62cc 2 stroke isn't making anywhere near that, and power isn't the issue. Ripping your arms out of their sockets is.

    The dreaded post hole auger

    I'm putting in a fence and currently using a hand held auger with a 62cc 2-stroke. My shoulder has had it. It wasn't too bad until I hit glacial till, and then some stuff with fist sized rocks. The local junk store has a 3 point post hole auger for 777 Canadian Copecs, which is probably about...

    1979 B7100 Fuel Injection Pump Rebuild

    Does anyone have a link to the full manual that a few pages of are posted in the OP? I looked on Kubotabooks and didn't see anything that should be it.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    This, they're something to be careful with, I had a nest grow up under my equipment trailer this year. Went to attach it to the truck so I could take it to buy my tractor and got attacked. I used to be allergic but it's not a huge issue anymore, but I'm always scared I will have a reaction...

    Bobcat manuals (310 specifically)

    I'm looking at buying a Bobcat 310 skidsteer. Maybe. It's toy sized. And this one has obviously seen a colourful life. What would be nice is if I could read through the service manual before I go to look at it. Is there anywhere that anyone knows has the old Bobcat manuals for free, like...

    Backhoe Subframe?

    Do you have pictures of how that attaches? That will answer some questions.

    Wear Your Seat Belt

    Lots of the ATV incidents we (air ambulance) respond to are rollover/ejections and they then hit something hard or the machine lands on them with speed. Without a roll cage (basic ROPS wouldn't cut it) and a 5-point they probably wouldn't have done any better. At high speeds you really need to...

    B7100 loader

    Vevor, and probably other direct from Chiii-nah retailers, sells a hydraulic pump that just slips over the PTO. You would have to fabricobble some basic brackets to hold it in place. Not sure if it's an option that would work for you.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    What strength do you use? And how much? Apply to the leaves or around it to get the roots? I use cleaning vinegar because I don't like herbicides near the well. Always looking for alternatives to try.

    B6100 w/ Loader+Backhoe

    Great thread. In it for the continued story with all the little tips and tricks.

    B7100 loader

    I can't imagine using a FEL that was half the speed of the one that uses the crankshaft mounted pump. That would be incredibly painful.

    New to me M7060HD (1700) hrs "Stuck in 4WD"

    Yes, that looks like it has been intentionally locked on 4wd.
