how do you extend the auger coupler/?

Buy a couple lengths of black pipe (threaded) on both sides, a coupler to connect them and connect it to the auger. Works well. -Bob

I have not used mine in about 1yr as I finished that project. I do recall that the coupling at the top of the auger is pipe threaded. so to extend it you would need a piece of iron pipe threaded with a coupler. Seymour may offer a kit but I am not sure about that.

I personally didn't have a need for extending it, but I assume they have extra peaces for digging deeper holes you can use as extensions...

I dug a 30' shallow well with the auger. You ideally would use stainless steel 3/4 inch couplers and 10' galvanized pipe additions. Don't use too many couplers as you might break the pipe or coupler as you bring it up to empty it. I broke one and had to replace the pipe once in my 30' digging. Hope that assures you. It looks like there are a couple of ways to go, as stated by others.

Try x-pole.com... but use the extensions for the original x-pole not the one with the x joint. That is where I got mine.

There are barbed fitting adapters that you could push into the end and clamp on. These would need to be bought separate but I've seen them in hardware stores.

You need to tighten the line which operates the auger. Move it up a notch or two and you should get full power over the auger. To test this, when the auger is slow, pull up the line which controls the auger with your hand and you should see a burst of auger power.

Fallow this link to insteps manuals: http://www.instep.net/product-manuals/ Just select your trailer model and the attachment instructions for the coupler are in there. :-)

I had the same problem until my son showed me how to put them together. But, maybe yours is different than mine. I thought I was going to have to buy an adapter but I was trying to put the new extension on first and then the the original on that. I had to add the extension on to the original. Once I put the original first and extension last it worked like it was supposed to. Not saying that will work for you but it did for me.

Hello, this is not a compatible replacement auger for your unit. The correct part number WR17X11939 is not available in our online database at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please let us know if you have any other questions! Thank you!

The shaft of the auger is basically standard black iron pipe, with the handle fitting welded to the top. The auger harness/yoke should just unscrew from the handle, and you could just add a pipe coupler and nipple/extension piece to make it as long as you want. The holes I used mine for were 30 inches deep, and I didn't need to extend the pipe, although if I was going any deeper, I would have.I also have to agree with lpcrsotp, I won't use a clamshell post hole digger again after buying one of these. I put in a quarter mile of fence this spring using one of these.

The bar end screws that came with the kit were too long to correctly work the rubber expander inside the handlebars. Easy fix, though- I just put an extra nut on the bolt between the kits extender and my tapered washer. You'll figure it out.

It appears the manufacturer sells a coupler at http://www.biketowleash.com/accessory-details.php?id=28But I have never used it since I have one dog.

I am sure you may use other tops, provided they are in the same range of size. Couplers are always available in specialized stores, like Bulk&Barn.; I have this set, but I have not tried other tips/couplers, and I could not say if they are standard size...but I understand using different tips, but keep the original couplers.

It's pretty thin, actually. Maybe 1/4"? But, honestly, you may not need an auger. I never use one, and it goes in no problem.

Yes, but I cannot remember now where I bought it. These tips are the largest that I have seen, so you will need a very large coupler.

I would go to hardware store and get a couple stainless steal couplers, and some all thread of the appropriate dimensions. Make an extension the exact length you want/need?

Auger is 7 inches long. It will drill a nice hole about 6 inches. (need to be careful, it can drill itself into the ground) We use a cordless drill (Dewalt) Great product.

Maybe, there were two augers for the model not interchangeable, I had to return the first one. The second one works great
