How It Works

Durable Bobcat® augers are compatible with Bobcat compact loaders, excavators, compact wheel loaders, telehandlers, small articulated loaders, Toolcat™ utility work machines and mini- track loaders.  

To operate, raise the boom arms until the auger is vertical. Engage the hydraulics into detent position, then slowly lower the lift arms until the auger contacts the surface. Apply a small amount of down force to the auger, but be careful not to apply too much, or the hydraulic motor may stall. To help remove spoil, reverse the bit’s direction and repeat, if necessary, for optimum digging performance. 

Required Components

Additional Details

Choosing the right auger model is key to ensure the best reliability and durability on the jobsite. Simply match the job's soil conditions with the motors for the best performance. 

Model 12PH/14PH: Ideal for Low Torque and High-Speed applications. It is recommended for areas with relatively easy digging or loose soil. Up to 24 in. diameter bits. 

Model 20PH/25PH: Ideal for Medium Torque and Medium Speed applications. It is used for areas with moderate to heavy digging requirements, rocky soil, and occasional tough digging. Up to 36 in. diameter bits. 

Model 35PH/50PH: Ideal for High Torque and Low Speed applications. It is recommended for Hard tough, all day digging through hardpan, frost, or asphalt. It works well with large diameter bits and hex drive applications.
