About this product

5-yr gearbox warranty 3-yr motor warranty Lifetime shaft pull-out cover

Overview

A 6DDS high flow skid steer auger attachment gives 4,911 ft-lbs at 3,000 PSI and lifts the clay and shale limit to 30 inches, a quarter more torque than the 5DDS for around forty dollars more at list. On this page it comes three ways: Drive Only if you already have a frame, on the Universal Quick Attach Frame Package with 7 ft hoses and flush-face disconnects, or on the Extension Frame (TPE) Package, Digga's telescopic piling and drilling extension.

Key Features of the Digga 6DDS Skid Steer Auger Package

  • Torque 4,911 ft-lbs at 3,000 PSI and 5,717 ft-lbs at 3,500 PSI, as published by Digga for the 6DDS
  • Recommended flow 12-36 GPM, with 12 GPM the floor for rated torque
  • 2.5 inch hex output shaft taking A6 earth auger bits, RC6 rock and earth combo bits and DR6 dedicated rock augers
  • Drills to 40 inches in earth and 30 inches in clay or shale, subject to ground conditions
  • Digga gearbox with an integrated pressure relief valve, so no external valve block and fewer joints to leak
  • The gearbox follows the bit down the hole, so drive height is not lost from drilling depth
  • HALO Alignment Kit optional — HALO built into the drive hood at the factory, reading plumb to ±0.25 degrees per Digga
  • 2-piece shaft design carries side load without putting it through the bearings
  • 5 year gearbox and 3 year motor warranty for drilling use, plus lifetime shaft pull-out cover

Choosing How the 6DDS Mounts

Option What you get Choose it when Drive Only The 6DDS drive on its own, with no frame, hoses or linkage You already have a Digga frame and linkage on the machine Universal Quick Attach Frame Package Drive, universal skid steer frame, 75mm linkage, 7 ft hoses and flush-face quick disconnects Standard drilling at machine reach — post holes, footings, fencing, tree planting Extension Frame (TPE) Package Drive on Digga's telescopic piling and drilling extension in place of the fixed frame Piling and deep holes — the TPE extends to 12-14 ft of ground clearance, so a deeper hole is drilled without stacking bit extensions

The TPE is engineered for drives up to 16,000 ft-lbs, so the 6DDS sits well inside it. One thing to plan for: a drive working 12-14 ft down needs more hose than the 7 ft set, and Digga's TPE hose kits come in 14 ft and 16 ft for exactly that. Tell us if the package is for TPE work and we will confirm hose length with the order.

HALO Alignment Kit

Every 6DDS on this page — both frame options and Drive Only — can be taken with No HALO or with the HALO Alignment Kit. Despite the name it is not a bolt-on: choosing it supplies the 6DDS with HALO built into the drive hood at the factory, with the extension cable and in-cab 12V plug. A ring of green lights means plumb; red and green guide the operator back when the drive drifts. On a one-person crew it replaces the spotter at the hole.

What Comes in the 6DDS Skid Steer Package

  • Digga 6DDS auger drive
  • Universal skid steer frame and 75mm linkage, or the TPE extension frame, unless you choose Drive Only
  • 7 ft hoses with flush-face quick disconnects on the frame package
  • HALO where the HALO Alignment Kit is selected
  • Not included: auger bits

Where the 6DDS Sits in Digga's High Flow Range

Against the 5DDS, the 6DDS adds 26 percent more turning force and lifts the clay and shale ceiling from 24 to 30 inches, while asking 12 GPM rather than 10. The 7DDS above it is another 26 percent up, reaching 48 inches in earth against 40. The 6DDT is the two-speed version of the same size at 5,013 ft-lbs, shifting between torque and speed while drilling and needing a case drain return. Max speed is 67 RPM, against 100 on the 6DDT.

Which Loaders Fit the 6DDS?

The 6DDS package mounts on the universal skid steer quick attach plate, so fitment is decided by hydraulics rather than brand. The 6DDS needs a high flow auxiliary circuit and at least 12 GPM to reach the torque above.

Fitment factor Requirement Mount interface Universal skid steer quick attach, included with the frame packages Auxiliary flow 12-36 GPM; 12 GPM minimum for rated torque Circuit type High flow; this is not a standard-flow drive Circuit pressure Rated for 3,500 PSI machines Linkage 75mm (HI-000128K for skid steer), included with the frame packages Case drain Not required Electrical 12V for HALO if selected Auger bits Sold separately — A6, RC6 and DR6 with a 2.5 inch hex hub

Drilling or anchoring? Digga warrants this drive for 5 years on the gearbox and 3 on the motor when it is used for drilling. Used for screw anchoring without Digga's Energy Control Valve, warranty drops to 2 years on the gearbox and 1 on the motor, and covers anchoring only up to 12,000 ft-lbs. The ECV has to be specified with the drive rather than added later, so tell us before ordering if anchoring is the job.

Digga 6DDS Skid Steer Package Questions, Answered

Is my loader high flow enough for the 6DDS?

High flow is an option on most loaders rather than standard, and the machine badge or operator manual gives the auxiliary flow in GPM. The 6DDS needs 12 GPM to reach its rated torque and uses up to 36 GPM. A standard-flow machine will turn the drive but will not produce the figures in the table.

What does the TPE frame actually do?

It replaces the fixed frame with a telescopic extension, so the drive travels down past machine reach. Digga states it extends to 12 to 14 feet of ground clearance, which is how a deep hole gets drilled without stacking bit extensions and losing alignment.

Should I step up to the two-speed 6DDT?

A two-speed drive shifts between a high-torque and a high-speed range while drilling, and the high-speed range earns its money on large diameters where clearing spoil takes the time. For holes under about 18 inches in ordinary ground, the single-speed drive does the same work for considerably less.

Can I buy the 6DDS without a frame?

Yes — that is the Drive Only choice, and it is the first option on this page. It suits anyone replacing a worn drive on a frame they already own. Check the linkage on your frame is the 75mm size before ordering; the Auger Drive Mount Linkages listing has it if not.

Which auger bits should I order?

All three Digga families for the 2.5 inch hex shaft fit: A6 earth auger bits for general earth and clay, RC6 rock and earth combo bits where the ground is mixed, and DR6 dedicated rock augers for fracturable rock. The 6DDS is rated to 40 inches in earth and 30 inches in clay or shale.

Is the HALO Alignment Kit worth adding?

It replaces the second person standing at the hole calling the auger straight. On a one-person crew, or where holes are inspected for plumb, it pays for itself quickly. On occasional fence work with a spotter already on site it is optional.

How is shipping calculated?

Shipping is calculated at checkout from the weight of your order and your delivery address, and the charge is shown before you complete the order. These packages ship by LTL freight on a pallet.

On delivery: inspect the crate before you sign. Note any damage on the bill of lading at the time of delivery, photograph it, and email support@eskidsteer.com — a clean signature makes a carrier claim much harder to win.
