Danuser, but a 4020 is more hp than most are rated for.

Get hyd. Driven one that way you can reverse it.

We have a hydraulic Danuser which I hang from the front end loader. Works great and you don"t get a stiff neck from looking back all the time. Also easier to line up to dig holes.

+1 on the hydraulic drive on the loader. Once you get the hang of it you can drop the point where you need the hole and get the auger stood up straight. Even easier if you can hook a spring to the motor so it hangs straight.
The one at work is a regular 3 pt gear head with a hydraulic motor mounted to the input. Rhino's new ones have the motor on the top in line with the auger instead of off to the side.

(quoted from post at 15:37:29 05/04/14) Once you get the hang of it you can drop the point where you need the hole and get the auger stood up straight. Even easier if you can hook a spring to the motor so it hangs straight.

I was always told the "pendulum effect" of the auger would make it hang straight down without the necessity of adding a spring.
