The 242H EPIC® Series hand-held Hole Digger features an all-position, 4-stroke engine, eliminating the need to mix oil with gas and use separate fuel cans. With no more smoky exhaust, this Honda engine meets current EPA emission standards. The 242H is built with professional features, making it ideal for both contractors and homeowners alike. It delivers the performance to dig up to an 8-inch (203 mm) diameter hole in various soil classifications. Constructed with oversized ball bearings, heat-treated shafts, and precise machine-cut gears, it ensures long service life and a high ROI. The unique, ergonomically engineered Power-GRIP operator handle maximizes control, strength, and balance while dampening vibration and reducing the effects of kickback and body fatigue.
