DIRTDAWG-CUB – One Man Post Hole Digger

“Every once in a while something comes along that seems to make our lives a little easier. A tool that seems simple enough, but over time, becomes so indispensable that we can no longer imagine life without it; you know some of these tools: calculator, computer, cash register…., insulated boots, leather gloves, cordless drill. Initially, those ideas seem so insignificant that blue-collar workers can become concerned with spending the money for a tool that only does one thing. A calculator only does arithmetic, a power drill only turns bits…and the RICE Hydro auger “Dirt Dawg” digs holes; and boy does it ever dig!”

It’s evident to me that the Dirt Dawg is engineered and manufactured by the people who are using it in the field. It’s sleek, sturdy and simple; obviously made of quality materials. Whenever I see this type of construction I know the manufacturer built it to last. One man or woman can quickly and effortlessly get the Dirt Dawg and be at the job site in a matter of no time; once there, they can fire up the easy start motor and immediately begin punching perfect holes to any depth. The simple controls give the operator complete and immediate control of speed and precision. Again, I say this will only take one person. This tool has given us drastic improvement in safety, which any manager knows, a safe workplace and safe equipment is the most important job at any site. It is always paramount to make sure no person ever gets hurt.

Here at Makoshika State Park in Glendive, Montana, we live and work amongst all terrain and soil types and the Dirt Dawg has readily handled every job we have put to its test. In fact, the impetus of our needing this tool is our never-ending need to build recreational trail bridges within some of America’s most inhospitable terrain. Having our new RICE Dirt Dawg will make areas and projects that were previously thought of as too difficult and challenging a lot more practical and attainable. In the short time that I have used our Dirt Dawg, and been able to witness the ease of use, safety features, great power and its versatility. I cannot imagine why any landscaping business owner, golf course groundskeeper, fencing business, equipment rental shop, farmer, rancher, or a parks and recreation department would not want to purchase this tool and keep it in their own cadre of essential equipment.

Thank You for engineering and manufacturing a great quality tool RICE Hydro, Inc. I take satisfaction in knowing that we have the Dirt Dawg to help us meet the strict demands of our job in a safe, efficient, and precise manner.

“My name is Greg Collett, owner of Arrow Rents Inc., in Montgomery, AL. We are a general equipment rental company serving the River Region since 1954.Taking care of small to medium size contracting companies to the homeowner/weekend warrior has been our bread and butter and as such we are continually looking for quality equipment to provide. We have rented and sold a handful of solid, well-made posthole diggers, both one and two man versions, over our fifty plus years. All from well-established and well thought of manufacturers who we have no problem or complaint with. So I wasn’t really looking for a new provider when I ran across RICE Hydro’s DirtDawg one man unit at the ARA Show. I was impressed with the simple and straight forward design and the well-built construction and similarly impressed with the knowledgeable staff in their booth. I purchased the unit and put it into rental right away. I am pleased to share that on our first unit we have collected over $12,000 in rental against a meager $165.00 in maintenance costs and never have we had to make a service call or infield repair. Also, our customers request the “red” one-man machine and are willing to wait even if our other units are out earning income, while we have other manufacturers in the yard and available.”

“I just dug 5,225 twelve inch diameter, three foot deep holes in rocky/clay soil, 2800 feet high in the Rocky Mountains. I rented the Dirtdawg. After a while, I bought my own. I’ll probably never buy another. Don’t need to. This one still runs like new. Next year I have another 31,000 holes planned.”

“The Dirtdawg has been a great asset to our farm and vineyard. I think we’ve only put in about 1200 posts – but it sure makes the task a bunch easier. We’d always used a 3-point auger on our tractor (which was OK for mostly level ground). We’ve found that your digger is great on our hill property. Our only problem was figuring out how to slow it down so that we didn’t have to “run” to keep up with it between locations!”

“We love the digger!”

“Our new Dirtdawg works like a charm – we can take it almost anywhere. The best thing about the Dirtdawg is it only takes one man to operate. This machine is the best gas powered auger we have ever used.”

“This Dawg hunts, and you can take that to the bank!”

Just wanted to thank you and your crew for producing such a great product.

We’ve been using this on a 30 degree slope (had to tether the machine and haul it up the slope with a block and tackle). Auguring though glacial till (tons of rock) without a hitch.
I’m so impressed I’m going submit reviews to FineHomeBuilding and JLC magazines.

Makes digging holes ‘fun’
