GENERAL 200 Series
Portable Hole Diggers |
|
Here's
the line of portable hole diggers conceived right from the start for light
and medium duty drilling projects. From backyard fencing to commercial
landscaping, the 2l0 and 232 readily handle any number of lawn and garden,
homeowner and light construction tasks.
Both machines are built with the same attention to detail
and features as General's larger, professional duty hole diggers. Precision
manufacturing tolerances, heat treated shafts and gears, and the oversized
bearings are designed to keep the 210 and 232 on the job and not in the
repair shop.
General was the first to create ergonomically designed
operator handles for portable hole diggers. Their special shapes actually
enhance control by reducing body fatigue to increase productivity and
promote jobsite safety. An optional 3/4", three jaw chuck accepts standard
masonry, wood and metal drilling bits. |

300 Series Portable Hole Diggers |
|
The time-proven 300 Series Hole diggers tackle any
construction related hole digging project... from commercial fencing to
upscale landscaping. All with the power and digging performance to meet the
demands of the most seasoned construction crew.
The exclusive, patented transmission design features
all-metal centrifugal clutches, oil-cooled for longer service life. Clutches
are designed to slip on overload or sudden contact with buried obstructions.
Spur gears are precision machine-cut and deliver unequaled torque and
horsepower to the auger. The innovative Comfort-Flex® operator handles
actually flex under load to help absorb vibration and stress. This
dramatically reduces operator fatigue, resulting in increased productivity
and jobsite safety. Constructed from high-strength composites, the handles
are highly resistant to ultraviolet light and external damage.
Driveshaft options allow the use of competitive Ground
Hog® and Stihl® augers without special adaptors, making it simple and easy
to accommodate existing auger inventories. 2- and 4-cycle engine choices
offer the widest range of engine options available. |
