Post Driver
The PD45 Post Driver is the most versatile tool of its
type available. The standard PD45 will drive posts
of almost any configuration, including “U” channel,
round or square.
Unlike other post drivers that simply rest on the top
of the post, the PD45 lets the operator “index” the
post in the tool. This gives improved control of the
post and driver. It also reduces the damage to the
top of the post.
The PD45 features dual guiding handles, a lifting eye
and multiple post adapters. The optional adapters
allow the PD45 to be used on smaller posts of differnt
shapes.
The PD45 is offered in three trigger options; two
have the trigger in the handle (Valve-in-Handle)
and one has a remote on/off. Both trigger Valve-in-
Handle models have an ON/OFF trigger adjacent to
a guiding handle. The trigger extends the full length
of the handle allowing the operator to activate the
post driver at any position of its length. The trigger
is “spring loaded” to the OFF position.
The PD45131 is controlled by a remote on/off valve
that allows the operator to position the post driver
and control its operation from a valve that is remote
from the driver.
The PD45132G is specifically designed to meet State
Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements
for driving breakaway posts and delineators. It will
drive posts to within 4 inches (100 mm) above ground
level.
