Frequently Asked Questions

A tool designed to dig holes in the ground, often used for posts, fences, tree planting or other outdoor digging tasks.

Common types include manual post-hole diggers (clamshell style), auger or earth-drill style diggers, and powered models (electric or petrol) for heavier work.

Consider the soil type (soft, rocky, compacted), hole diameter and depth needed, and how many holes you’ll dig overall. Match the tool size and power accordingly.

Base your diameter on what you’re installing: e.g., fence posts may need ~100-300 mm, saplings less, heavy posts more. Ensure the digger supports the required diameter.

Depth depends on the model. Manual ones may reach a few feet; powered augers can reach greater depths, depending on configuration and extensions.

Some diggers work well in soft soil, but harder, rocky, or clay soils may require a stronger model (e.g., a powered or reinforced model). Always check the suitability for your ground.

Wear gloves, eye protection and sturdy footwear.
Check for underground services before digging (cables/pipes).
Maintain a stable stance and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
For powered units, ensure emergency stop or clutch features.

Clean off soil and debris after use, inspect blades or auger for damage, lubricate moving parts if applicable, and store in a dry place.
