POWERED BY A GENUINE HONDA GX50SSE4 4-STROKE ENGINE – We chose the Honda GX50SSE4 (Side Exhaust) because of it’s specially designed exhaust port which prevents exhaust gas inhalation. Our machines are designed with safety in mind by positioning the exhaust port at the furthest point from the operator and ejecting exhaust gases parallel to the ground and directly opposite the operator.
Powertech Honda Post Hole Digger V1 - Includes 100 mm & 250 mm Dual Spiral Augers
Dig faster, safer, and with less effort using the Powertech Honda Post Hole Digger V1. Designed and built by Powertech Machinery, this commercial-grade post hole digger is the ideal solution for fencing contractors, landscapers, builders, farmers, plumbers, and serious DIY users who demand reliable performance in Australia's toughest ground conditions.
Powered by the Genuine Honda GX50 Side Exhaust 4-Stroke engine, the Powertech Post Hole Digger V1 combines outstanding fuel efficiency with smooth, reliable power to make light work of digging holes from 80 mm to 300 mm in diameter. As a result, operators can complete fencing, landscaping, and construction projects faster while significantly reducing the physical effort required compared to manual digging.
Purpose-built for Australian conditions, this machine has undergone extensive field testing by professional fencing contractors, builders, and farmers to ensure dependable performance across a wide range of soil types. Furthermore, the heavy-duty commercial gearbox and integrated internal safety clutch help protect both the operator and the machine by reducing the risk of sudden auger lock-up when encountering rocks or hard ground.
Unlike many post hole diggers, the Powertech V1 is fitted with the Honda GX50 Side Exhaust (GX50SSE4) engine. This unique engine design directs exhaust gases away from the operator by positioning the exhaust outlet at the furthest point from the handles and parallel to the ground. Consequently, operator comfort and safety are significantly improved during extended periods of use.
Weighing just 17 kg (with the 250 mm auger fitted), the compact frame and balanced design make the machine easy for a single operator to control. In addition, comfortable rubber hand grips reduce vibration and improve handling, allowing operators to work more comfortably throughout the day.
Supplied standard with 100 mm and 250 mm dual spiral augers, the Powertech V1 is ready for a wide variety of applications. Combined with optional augers from 80 mm through to 300 mm and extension shafts available in 300 mm, 500 mm, and 1,000 mm lengths, the machine can easily be configured to suit almost any digging requirement.
Whether you're installing fence posts, planting trees, erecting signs, building retaining walls, or completing plumbing and construction projects, the Powertech Honda Post Hole Digger V1 delivers the reliability, versatility, and performance professionals trust.

Darren McCormick –
I have been using the powertech post hole digger and post driver now for a few months. Both bits of kit I highly recommend as I live in a area with exceptionally hard ground with a lot of stone and rubble, no issues at all with the equipment and customer service is great. Have just order some new teeth for the post hole digger, dispatched express within 12 hours!!! great service guys well done.

Kilmore Hire –
We have had this Honda post hole digger/ Auger for nearly 2 years in our hire business and have only just had to order spare parts, if that dosent tell you how well made these are, we have just ordered another to add to our fleet! Powertech are a great company to deal with, their shipping is fast normally arriving in 3-4 days, 10/10 Highly recommend!

Easy to use website. Prompt delivery to QLD. The digger is awesome. Typically good and reliable Honda power with real grunt. There is no comparison between a Honda 4 stroke and the cheap 2 stroke motors for doing the same job. The augers have ploughed through everything I’ve thrown at them so far. Excellent service from Powertech. All in all, a worthwhile purchase. Highly recommend.
Luke –
I bought this machine a couple weeks ago and am very happy with it.
Its purpose for me is too dig the holes for thousands of small trees. So light but durable was the requirement. None of the others I looked at really hit that mark.
I can’t speak for longitivity yet, but the materials seem solid and so far so good. I have confidence in it.

Bought this a couple weeks ago. Powertech team is honest and great to deal with. Delivery to Central Queensland in around 7 days (regional). Plenty of power in the unit and safety clutch works well. Honda built well, as described and started first pull. Happy so far and would recommend.

I bought this hole digger two months ago. I am a fencing contractor installing Colorbond fences & I use it nearly every day. It starts first go, It has plenty of power, Its lightweight, reasonably quiet & Ive found its ergonomics to reduce fatigue. Over the years Ive used lots of hole diggers & I have found this one to be the best.
