A detailed listing of parts for this accessory kit is
provided on page 3. Use the list as a checklist to
inventory parts received. Please contact your local
Land Pride dealer for any missing hardware.
Refer to Figure 1 on page 1:
The optional storage stand may be used when PD10
Post Hole Digger is not in operation. It will help
prolong digger’s life by keeping the unit off the
ground where moisture and debris are more likely to
collect causing undue damage to the digger. Also,
the storage stand aids in mounting and dismounting
the Post Hole Digger to and from the tractor.
