Tractor And Skid Steer Mounted Fence Post Drivers

These hydraulic powered Worksaver Fence Post Drivers can be mounted on either tractor three point hitches, or the front loader arms of tractors or skid steer loaders. Fence Post Drivers are available in a variety of models, with either manual or hydraulic angling. All models now feature a spring loaded post holder to hold the post in position in the channel until the post is set (started), and to make driving the post safer for the operator.

Post Driver Tractor Offset Mounted Model

These fence post drivers are built for everyday heavy use, and are designed for one-man use. These units are strong enough to even drive railroad ties quickly and easily. Worksaver Post Drivers are operated hydraulically with a single spool valve for open and closed center hydraulic systems; this allows users with either hydraulic system the ability to quickly change a plug to match the user's tractor system.

Several models are available with different features and driving capacities. The models 16 and 20 are available for rear tractor center mounting and front loader mounting, and produce 32,000 and 80,000 lbs. of force respectively. There are also a version of the 16 and 20 that are rear tractor offset mounted and a larger offset mounted model 24 that gives you even more force at 110,000 lbs.. Models 16, 20, and 24 are also available for mounting on skid steer loaders; two versions of each size are available: one version uses your skid steer loader's hydraulic system to power the post driver, the other version includes a self-contained hydraulic reservoir and tank, making it the better choice for customer's that will use the unit on different skid steer loaders, since it is completely self-contained.

The maximum post sizes these units can drive are as follows: the 16 series drivers - 7 inch diameter x 9 ft. long blunt end wooden post; 20 series post drivers - 8 3/4 inch diameter x 10 ft. long blunt end wooden post; and 24 series post drivers - 11 inch diameter x 10 ft. long blunt end wooden post.

  • Features/Specifications - Manual Positioning Center Mount Rear Tractor Mounted Post Drivers

    • Rear Tractor Mounted Center Mounted Post Driver

  • Helps eliminate air pockets in the soil providing an immediate air tight post set, designed to drive wooden round and square posts including railroad ties, as well as metal T-posts and round oil pipe


  • Three different sizes are available with manual or hydraulic positioning (left to right and front to back angling). All three sizes, the 16, 20 and 24 are available on the hydraulic angling versions; only the 16 and 20 sizes are available on the manual angling versions however.


  • The fence post drivers are operated hydraulically with a single spool valve for open and closed center hydraulic systems; this allows the unit to be used on tractors with either hydraulic system the ability to quickly change a plug to match the tractor's hydraulic system


  • Maximum cycle rate of 40 strokes per minute


  • The driving ram is guided in the mounting carriage by slide blocks that provide maximum surface contact for better performance and longer carriage life


  • A target bubble level indicator mounted on the driver valve plate, allows the operator to adjust the driver easily and exactly to ensure the post will be straight


  • All drivers now include a spring loaded post holder arm to hold the post in place in the frame until the post is set (started).


  • Worksaver Post Drivers are covered by a two year limited warranty


  • Two models are available with manual positioning for the front to back and side to side angling. The models 16 and 20 use a manual angling plate with a manual pivot weldment operated by two crank handles (one for each direction). If your terrain won't require a lot of alignment adjustment to level the driver (relatively flat terrain), then you can save money with the easy to use manual adjustment system.


  • Maximum Post Size That Can Be Driven: 7 inches x 9 ft. deep HPD-16 model, and 8 3/4 inches x 10 ft. deep HPD-20 model


  • Impact At Full Stroke: 32,000 lbs. model 16, and 80,000 lbs. model 20


  • Impact At Half Stroke: 16,000 lbs. model 16, and 40,000 lbs. model 20 (less than full stroke used initially to "set the post" before using full stokes for driving)


  • Minimum Tractor Size: 30 pto hp model 16, and 50 pto hp model 20


  • Rear Hitch Size: Catagory 1 or 2 on both models


  • Drive Cylinder Size: 2 inch x 56 inches on model 16, and 2 inches x 68 inches on model 20


  • Operating Range (height above ground, dictates how low hammer will drive down above ground and how high it can be raised): 50 inches to 116 inches for model 16, and 50 inches to 128 inches model 20


  • Tilt Adjustment: 10 degrees from vertical front to back, and 17 degrees from vertical side to side on both models


    • Return Line Connection

  • These post drivers use a non-pressurized return line on the standard models for tractors, and the standard models for skid steer mounting (there are skid steer mount models that have their own self-contained hydraulic system with motor and reservoir powered by the loader's hydraulic system).


  • For tractor and skid mount models using the standard set-up with a non-pressurized return line, this line has to feed back into the vehicles hydraulic reservoir (IT DOES NOT PLUG INTO the return socket of the auxlillary outlet). You will need to either purchase from us or fabricate your own return line fitting for the hose. The return line fittings we have available for tractors usually connect vary easily into the fill opening of the hydraulic reservoir, replacing the OEM fill cap. The return line for all applications can be done this way as long as there is no pressure at the reservoir.


  • The return line fittings for skid steer loaders however, may be designed to insert in the lines between the hydraulic oil cooler and filter, requiring changing the mounting position of the oil cooler enough to insert the T - fitting in the line. There may be some work involved in mounting the fitting unless you just insert the hose into the filler opening of the reservoir tank. For skid loaders, the other choice is to purchase a self-contained unit with reservoir and motor that is powered by plugging in 2 hoses in the auxillary outlet on your skid loader; this does increase the cost however. The lowest cost for a post driver for tractor mount or skid steer mount is with these units with the non-pressurized return line that feeds back into the hydraulic reservoir tank.


  • Note: Every attempt has been made to provide return line packages for current skid steer loader models. However, some models are not adaptable (i.e.: Caterpillar Models, ASV Posi-Track and others). They can be fit with a hydraulic post driver by using a HSS/P model, which is a self-contained unit and requires no return line fitting. E-mail us with the model of your skid steer and we can verify the availability of a return line fitting for your model.
