Enhanced hydraulic motors have a higher-rated operating pressure for better raw digging power. An upgraded integral motor and planetary gearbox housing bring the planetary gear set closer to the motor, decreasing motor stress. A five-gear gearbox with an updated input shaft and shaft seal were designed for increased durability. For heavy-duty work in terrains such as rock and clay, the max torque rating on the PA30B has been increased from 4,166 feet-pounds (5,648 Nm) to 4,500 feet-pounds (6,101 Nm), increasing attachment efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>The PA15B and PA30B models maintain the reverse rotation feature of their predecessors, which allows quick back-out when obstructions are encountered, and sheds dirt from the auger when working in wet conditions. To further enhance ease of use, the universal, self-cleaning Quik-Tatch\u2122 easy-attachment system allows operators to switch from one type of attachment to another within seconds.<\/p>\n<p>The PA15B and PA30B models are compatible with a variety of auger bit styles and diameters, including standard 4- to 6-inch (102 \u2013 914 mm), 9- to 12-inch rock and frost (220 \u2013 305 mm), and 18- to 36-inch (457 \u2013 914 mm) tree and shrub.<\/p>\n<p>The new auger attachments are backed by John\u00a0Deere parts, service and warranty coverage.
