New Holland agriculture and construction dealers are spread across all Canadian provinces, providing local support for attachments. Carbide teeth cut efficiently and are replaceable when worn.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You drill post holes, footings, or tree holes regularly enough that buying beats renting
- Your skid steer's hydraulic output is matched to the drive unit — verify GPM range before buying
⛔ Skip if…
- You only drill occasionally — renting an auger package for $250–$400/day often wins over ownership at $3,000–$8,000 investment
- Your machine's GPM is outside the drive unit's rated range — running outside spec damages the motor
🔍 Also consider…
- A rental package first to confirm the right drive unit spec for your soil and machine
- Auger bits in multiple diameters — the drive unit investment only makes sense if you have the right bits to go with it
Designed for New Holland machines but mounts to any skid steer or CTL with a universal SSQA quick-attach plate.
