Belltec Industries TM48 Post Hole Digger mounts easily on three-point
tractors with over 28 horsepower which have at least two hydraulic remote
valves. Our machine's design and performance go way beyond today's tractor
mounted post hole diggers.
Our unique system transforms a three-point
tractor into a drilling machine capable of doing what the big truck rigs do:
drill accurate, straight holes (to a depth of 5 ft on a single auger) in almost
any drilling condition, including solid rock and concrete.
Frame-Guided Auger System |
Twin hydraulic cylinders connect the auger carriage
to the mainframe of the machine. The cylinders move the carriage up and
down the mainframe slides. Adjustable feet on the mainframe may be
leveled. Since the auger is guided into the ground by the mainframe, as
long as the mainframe is straight and the carriage is level, the machine
will drill straight holes.
The hydraulic cylinders are directly
connected to the Gear Drive-Auger Carriage without any leverage or
linkage. This gives much better control over the auger in rocks, roots or
soft ground. If the cylinders are moved 1", so is the auger. Movement is
not multiplied by leverage or slack in linkage. A person is much less
likely to corkscrew the auger through a root or in soft ground. More
complete control over the augers makes the operator's job easier and
faster.

Gear Drive
The auger is powered by
a heavy duty gearbox. The gearbox is protected by an automatic torque
limiter within the P.T.O. shaft which instantly relieves torque when
overloaded and automatically resets itself as soon as P.T.O. speed is
reduced. This eliminates troublesome shear pins and down time because of
broken P.T.O. shafts and cross kits.

Down Pressure
Utilizing the
tractor's weight through these unique Locking Arms, apply up to 4500 lbs
down-pressure can be supplied by opposing twin hydraulic cylinders. This
eliminates the need for anyone to "ride" the machine risking injury. Down
pressure also helps keep teeth
sharp. |
