The mechanical earth drill is available with either a 5.5- or 8-horsepower engine and is mounted on 8- or 10-inch semi-pneumatic tires, respectively. Both versions offer a small footprint for easy access in any area and can be used on lawns, golf course greens and other delicate surfaces without causing damage.
The mechanical drills feature a steel torque tube that allows operators to use large-diameter augers without fear of dangerous kickback. To enhance operator safety further, all models feature a centrifugal clutch. If the drill encounters a buried object or the auger overloads, the clutch automatically slips to protect the operator from serious injury and the drive cable and transmission gears from damage.
Little Beaver offers two kits that allow users to easily convert its mechanical drills into horizontal boring machines. The sidewalk auger kit includes a 5-foot extension with a universal joint and a 5-foot auger to make it ideal for drilling as much as 4 four feet under sidewalks. The water drilling kit is for applications like plumbing, electrical and water lines. It includes a water swivel and achieves horizontal drilling distances up to 40 feet.
High-quality features that reduce maintenance and extend life include heavy-duty transmissions with cooling fins for quick heat dissipation and improved longevity. Furthermore, the company powder coats all steel features to enhance strength and durability. The drill can be outfitted with four different augers in 36- and 42-inch lengths and in diameters ranging from 1.5 to 6 inches. Snap-on auger extensions are also available;many optional features allow end-users to customize their drills further.
