Rohrer pneumatic post driver

After laying out the trellis rows, I ripped the ground about 30" deep to get the boulders out that were close to the surface. I have a 3pt hitch pair of forks, which I put a pallet on to hold the compressor, hose, driver, etc. So far, with the end posts, I haven't had any problems. The driver drives the first 24" pretty quickly, then takes a little longer to go through the last 12". If you're only planning to drive t-posts, you'll be able to use their lightest model and the posts will be lighter.

You should be able to put quite a few into the ground each day and not be quite as exhausted as I felt on the portion of the day I drove 60 of the endposts which took some extra time getting them in at the proper angle , especially if you have a helper or two. One great thing about the Rohrer is that once you get a post started, you don't even have to touch the driver until you want to stop it.

If you choose to buy one of their drivers, make sure you have or buy an air hose oiler Rohrer has them. They named it right! Mar 16, Thread Starter 3. Thanks for such a comprehensive review!

I wasn't planning on the inline oiler as I don't use one with my other air tools, but it sounds like a good idea for this application. Thanks again for your input. And how fast it drives them. I highly recommend their products over any of the gas powered types. A generator, ft of airhose and a medium sized compressor and your set. Well worth the money! Everyone wants to use it! And in rocky ground seams like even small rocks that you can hand drive past, stop it from driving tposts in.

I rate it as average because the only thing I can compare to is my hand driver. Getting old is NOT for wimps! As I age, I still want to do the jobs around the farm myself and not hire out for them. This tool has definitely made this happen. I just ran some fence that would have taken me better part of a morning driving the t-posts. Harris, TX View Product. Great product. Laney Pankey View Product. I just wanted you to know I am very pleased with my new 98E Post Driver. Two of us installed 90 posts in a very short time.

We have been using our post driver for 3 years and driven approximately posts. Read More Reviews. After about 5 post I felt very comfortable using it. I bought the inline oiler, happy I did. Keeping it oiled with the proper oil is key. They took about 22 minutes. Very happy with machine. Tried few hole and lost 4 wellpoints. The Rohrer post pounder performed as promised and sure beats a sledge hammer if you have a lot of posts.

In most instances the average driving time was minutes.
