Unusual equipment

Post by Harry »

Seen this hydraulic post pounder on CL this morning. I have no use for one but I think this would be a handy piece of equipment for the right person. :peace: Harry

We've got the pressure, and flow to run that...
I don't think we've got enough tractor to hook it to though.

I looked up the manufacturer's site. They offer trailer mounted units that are bigger than the HD-8, so mounting it to a towable frame would likely be possible for this one.

I just saw an older all mechanical post pounder on craigslist the other day. Thought it would potentially be a handy machine, but the price was a little more than I wanted to pay on a whim, for something I don't need often.

Yes it probably would be too much for the 200 or 400 series GT’s. A 600 series has a bit more weight to it. :thumbsup: :peace: Harry

Have it mounted on the rear with the pto close by for operation.
