[QUOTE="Chessie, post: 118819, member: 21571"] Wayne440... I appreciate the reply/thoughts/questions... Here are some answers: 1) I've used a Bobcat "tool cat" with a big (transplant) auger on it. That was probably a more powerful machine with higher-flow hydraulics, just because of how it operated. I'm sure that the Bobcat Toolcat was newer than this '86, Model 743 with a 36 hp kubota. 2) No, unfortunately I do not, I bought it new, but from auction. 3) I don't have expectations, and would be happy to sit and watch it... if it take a full 60 seconds, I'm okay with that. 4) Okay, can live with that. I haven't put any "high-flow" (or other than the grapple) attachments on my machine, so maybe it's just fine. 5) I don't know that it's worn out, I was just trying to add full information. I bought it used. It's a good machine, no leaks, likes to run and has lots of power in the wheels and lift, so I know that the hydraulics are good. It may be exactly as you said, that I'm trying to do too much too quickly, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. I bought this attachment planning to drill holes for a shop/pole-barn and a couple of porches... I plan to drill down, clear the holes and pour concrete into the bottom and into "sono-tubes" (heavy round cardboard forms for pouring concrete.... [URL]https://www.sonotube.com/sonotubeconcreteforms.aspx[/URL]) and then attach building supports on these. If it's normal for a small machine like mine to drill such a hole in three or four stages, lifting out and clearing the hole and then continuing down, then I can certainly live with that. I appreciate the thoughts/comments. Chessie [/QUOTE]
