With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the 40V max XGT® Brushless Earth Auger Kit (GGD01M1) is a welcome solution for landscapers. The earth auger delivers the power of a 36cc gas earth auger, digging even and consistent holes. It is ideal for post-hole digging, fence installation, large planting jobs, soil sampling, and construction projects.
The GGD01M1 can drill holes up to 8" wide and 41" deep. There are 2 speed options (0-350 RPM, 0-1,400 RPM) to manage power and run time. A reverse switch clears the earth auger bit from high-resistance soil. The earth auger features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) to provide increased dust and water resistance in harsh job site conditions.
Other features include built-in L.E.D. light illuminates the work area, Automatic Speed Change to adjust drill speed and torque during drilling, and a torque limiter, which is a built-in clutch that reduces gear damage by disengaging gears if the bit binds.
XGT is a system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers utilizing 40v max lithium-ion batteries. XGT is engineered to deliver high power to take on high-demand applications, allowing users to completely transition to a cordless job site. XGT is equipped with advanced brushless motor engineering, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability features to outpower, outsmart and outlast the rest.
