Auger 1 Man Handheld (Yellow – 1.3 hp)

Rental Rates:

The Ground Hog ModelONE is a small, hand-held, one-man auger that is designed from the ground up for a great end-user experience.At the heart of the ModelONE is the transmission and it is designed to take abuse. A 3-inch centrifugal clutch transfers the engine’s power to heat-treated billet steel gears. Oversized bearings are used throughout. The sealed, grease-filled cast aluminum gearcase is heavily reinforced with ribbing to make it incredibly strong without adding unnecessary weight. All of this allows the transmission to easily handle the torque, shock and also the impact and side stresses on the auger bit.

The handlebar is comfortable and the controls are easy to use. The full wrap-around handlebar has a thick and durable cushioned grip surface that gives comfort and control to the operator. There is a trigger-type, spring-return throttle that allows for precise control, and a kill switch is located conveniently above the throttle. The handlebar and the gearcase are also designed to make the machine as short as possible to allow the operator to start digging a hole at a lower, more comfortable, and controlled hand position.

The ModelONE is rugged and reliable and is powered by a Honda® GX35 4-Stroke engine. The handlebar assembly is made from steel and has a durable powder-coated finish.

The engine speed and torque, the transmission gear ratio, as well as the angle of the auger blades and the pitch of the flites, work together to provide maximum digging power while minimizing strain on the operator. With the ModelONE, you get plenty of power and control with less fatigue.
