Auger
Digging holes is no-one’s idea of a good time. It’s time consuming, tedious and backbreaking work. Using the Ditch Witch planetary auger driver attachment means that those post-hole digs are over quickly and easily, so you can get on to laying those fence posts. Minimise the amount of extra hands you need on site, and get the job done faster with your very own auger tool.

Trenchers
Preparing for trench warfare? Well, your enemies don’t stand a chance. You can be belting out troughs for those drains, pipes and cables in no time at all.

Backfill Blade
After all your hole-digging and trench-ploughing fun, no doubt you’re going to need to do some tidying up. Lucky for you, backfilling has never been so easy! Once you’re finished with your trencher, simply remove and clip in your backfill blade attachment to start moving that dirt around and filling those ditches. In both regular and 6-way varieties, the backfill blades come in either a 48 or 67-inch options.
Backfillers
In both left and centre options, the backfiller attachments allow you to automate your backfilling process even further still. Quickly run over your exposed trenches, and in a single sweep you’ve filled and levelled the site.

The standard buckets are available in 36 and 42-inch options, while the 52” bucket is available in either 1/3 or ¼ cubic metre varieties.
