Machinery and earthworks-enthusiast Ron Bates from Ron’s
Landscaping tells us he’s been involved in the industry over 30 years. Being a
very brand-loyal Aussie bloke, Ron swears by two brands he has stuck with over
the years - Bobcat for Skid Steer Loaders and Digga for machinery attachments.
“The reason I chose Digga was because I couldn’t justify the price of the other attachments on the market compared to the quality. And seen my Digga attachments are still running today, it was well worth it! I started off with a PD3 and an auger to fit my machine 30 years ago. Not long after purchasing another few augers, I bought a trencher and a slasher – which are now over 20 years old too.”
Being involved in the industry for so long, he sure has some
great experience and likes to get the most out of his attachments. “I do all
types of machine-work now, from digging dams to clearing, rural fencing,
trenching for farmers, plumbers, electricians – basically anyone who needs some
help digging and clearing around Hunter Valley in New South Wales. My augers
are used to dig holes for fencing, tree planting, putting up sheds, footings
for concreters etc. With my trencher I’ve event cut out large trees or worked
on garden beds – I just love the variety of applications. You’ve got to think
outside the box & you’ll be able to do anything with them.”, Ron tells us.
“Of course, I’ve had auger teeth, pilots, some hoses and
trencher wear parts replaced over the years, but other than that they’ve been
very efficient. Digga makes something that lasts - my gear works hard every
day; they get a good run. I would recommend the attachments to anyone!”
Ron also LOVES his Slasher. The
Digga Slasher attachment is suited for skid steers, mini loaders, tractors or
excavators, used to effectively cut and clear grass and low ground shrubbery -
ideal for landscaping, agriculture, roadway maintenance, parks maintenance, and
general slashing.
“I especially love my Digga Slasher because it just works so
well, and it never lets me down. – I use it mainly around farms to clean up
paddocks and manage all scrubby & rough bush up to 8ft tall.”
Check out this video by Ron, slashing some bush around a
farm in Hunter Valley.

Having trouble operating your Digga bucket broom? There are a few tips and tricks when it comes to brush adjustment & height, rotation direction and the broom emptying procedure. We've summarised them for you below. Direction of travel and brush rotation Always sweep at a high enough brush speed and low ground speed to effectively discharge the material being swept. Brush height adjustment Remove the handle pin, twist the handle, and replace the pin. Re-adjust the axle to the correct height using both handle adjusters. Return handles to their original position. Correct Brush Height Set the height of the brush so the bottom of the brush is approximately 30mm lower than the bucket cutting edge. The brush must be level. Emptying Procedure When the bucket requires emptying, stop the rotation of the brush, lift your loader arms and crowd the bucket forward so the Bucket Broom hood swings away from the bucket. Examples of Damaged Bucket...

Rotating rock picks, are the auger teeth used on our Digga dedicated rock augers (DR) for drilling from soft rock to hard fracturable rock. Here are some things you can observe to determine whether the rock picks are worn: The teeth need to rotate while drilling to maintain an efficient cutting tip. The tungsten tip and tooth should be evenly pointed. Poorly maintained teeth reduce cutting efficiency and wear out faster costing time and money. We recommend you replace worn teeth immediately! Tip: the outside teeth (C) will wear the fastest as they are travelling the greatest distance so will need replacing more often. Try swapping the outer tooth for an inner tooth to keep the wear even. Always use your best teeth on the outside pockets. Here are some examples or rotating rock picks in various states of wear. Tooth A has not been rotating in the pocket and as a result the tooth is uneven and will cut poorly. We recommend changing this tooth. You may also notice if the tungsten tip has...
