yoke hitch pins securely in support angles on the storage
stand. Some adjustment to the support angles may be
required.
The optional storage stand may be used when the
PD15, PD25, and PD35 Post Hole Digger is not in
operation. It will help prolong digger’s life by keeping
the unit off the ground where moisture and debris are
more likely to collect causing undue damage to the
digger. Also, the storage stand design aids in
mounting and dismounting the Post Hole Digger to
and from the tractor.
3. Disconnect 3-point hitch.
4. Start tractor and drive away being careful not to catch on
the Post Hole Digger and Storage Stand.
