Dependable, easy-to-mount auger for planting, fencing, and light-duty drilling projects.
The BEFCO Mole 100 is a heavy-duty post hole digger designed for small tractors (15–25 HP). Its reinforced boom and yoke frame make it tough enough for repeated use while remaining compact and easy to handle — ideal for farmers, landscapers, fence installers, or vineyard managers working on smaller plots or lighter jobs.
The 180 RPM gearbox delivers steady power through 540-RPM PTO, giving consistent digging performance even on compact tractors. With auger size options between 6", 9", and 12", you get flexibility to dig holes for tree planting, fence posts, light poles, or other similar tasks. Built-in safety features and replaceable wear parts make the Mole 100-512 both safe and cost-effective over time.
If you want a reliable, no-frills post-hole solution that’s easy to attach and efficient on modest horsepower tractors — the Mole 100-512 gets the job done without overkill.
