Lighter for older operators

The design reduces operating weight by roughly 50 per cent compared to traditional hydraulic drills and it requires less than 20 pounds of force to pivot into digging position. The frame also eliminates torque for safe one-person drilling. The rig can be conveniently transported using a removable “no tools” towing hitch, saving valuable truck or trailer space and making it an economical tool for fence and deck building, sign installation, rental and park-and-recreation departments. The Towable drill’s 11-horsepower Honda engine delivers 22 per cent more power than competitive models. To further boost performance, the unit’s 2,700-psi hydraulic system provides up to 300 foot-pounds of torque with an auger speed of 150 rpm. The Towable’s 34-inch width allows it to easily fit through gates and other tight spaces for drilling in locations inaccessible to skid steers and tractors. Its 16-inch semi-pneumatic tires and auger lock make it easy for one person to manoeuvre the drill around a jobsite and pivot into position without damaging delicate turf or landscapes. For added convenience, the Towable features a two-position handle that rotates 180 degrees to drill near buildings, walls and other structures. Additionally, the drill’s infinitely variable 20-degree auger tilt makes it possible to drill vertically in uneven terrain.
