Post Hole Auger Storage Unit
 ✖  |
My post hole auger storage unit provides a simple way to keep a 3-pt. mounted post hole auger in place for easy hookup. The unit has an H-shaped base made from angle iron. A 6-ft. high length of angle iron is welded upright at the center of the base and is bent slightly backward. A length of angle iron is welded at a right angle to the top of the upright and supports a chain and hook.
To release the auger from the tractor, I just back up the post hole auger and attach the chain to a swivel-type metal loop welded on top of the auger's mounting arm. Then I detach the auger from the tractor's 3-pt. hitch and lower the auger until it dangles above the ground. (Joseph L. Bellor, 2578 Reed Rd., Lapeer, Mich. 48446 ph 810 667-2854)
