Deposit: $60
The Billy Goat AGR1300H earth auger is a commercial-grade, hydrostatically driven drilling machine designed to make post-hole digging faster, easier, and far less physically demanding. Unlike traditional handheld or tow-style augers, this unit is self-propelled, allowing the operator to drive the auger around the jobsite instead of pushing or towing it.
The Billy Goat AGR1300H earth auger is a commercial-grade, hydrostatically driven drilling machine designed to make post-hole digging faster, easier, and far less physically demanding. Unlike traditional handheld or tow-style augers, this unit is self-propelled, allowing the operator to drive the auger around the jobsite instead of pushing or towing it.
Powered by a robust gas engine and paired with Pengo-style carbide-tipped auger bits, the AGR1300H delivers strong torque for drilling in hard clay, compacted soil, and mixed ground conditions, while maintaining excellent control and stability.
Key Advantage: Hydrostatic Drive
The AGR1300H features a hydrostatic drive system, which means:
- No pushing or towing between holes
- Smooth, controlled forward and reverse movement
- Easier positioning and alignment over each hole
- Reduced operator fatigue on larger jobs
This makes it especially well-suited for fence lines, long runs of posts, and multi-hole projects.
