Bluebird T 170 HO
Professional Petrol Earth Auger with Honda Engine

Bluebird T 170 HO - Professional Earth Auger with 4-Stroke Honda Engine

The Bluebird T 170 HO is a professional earth auger designed for heavy-duty drilling in agriculture , forestry , and construction , even on steep, compact, or particularly difficult terrain. This model is designed for large-diameter drilling and intensive use, making it ideal for piling, reforestation, and planting large trees. The machine is specifically designed for use by two operators , a necessary condition to ensure control, stability, and safety during the most demanding drilling operations.

The Bluebird T 170 HO petrol earth auger combines a reinforced steel frame with a high-performance Honda 4-stroke engine , ensuring smooth power delivery and optimal torque management even under heavy loads. The hardened steel gear reduction and ergonomic dual-grip handle allow two operators to work in perfect synergy, maintaining maximum control of the auger. The ability to drill holes up to 400 mm in diameter makes the T 170 HO an advanced technical solution, designed for professional applications where power, stability, and safety are essential.

Drill NOT INCLUDED.
This machine requires the use of 2 people.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The Bluebird T 170 HO is equipped with a Honda 4-stroke engine designed to provide smooth and reliable power delivery even during continuous work cycles and under high loads. The 0.91 L fuel tank ensures adequate autonomy for prolonged operations, while the recoil starter system with decompressor makes starting easier, reducing the physical effort required of operators. The combustion engine allows the machine to be used completely independently of electrical sources, making it suitable for isolated construction sites and difficult-to-access operating environments.

In terms of performance, the engine develops a power of 3.6 kW (4.8 HP) with a displacement of 166 cc , operating at a maximum speed of 3600 RPM . The case-hardened and tempered steel gear transmission ensures effective and constant torque transmission to the auger, even when drilling large diameters. The machine can drill holes up to 2 m deep and 400 mm in diameter , making it the ideal solution for heavy-duty operations. The weight of the engine unit, equal to 27 kg, makes it mandatory for use by two operators , an essential condition to ensure control, stability and safety during drilling. The auger can be purchased separately , allowing the equipment to be configured according to specific professional needs.

FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS

High-performance Honda GCV 170 engine

The Bluebird T 170 HO is equipped with the Honda GCV 170 4-stroke engine , a technical solution designed to ensure reliability, consistent performance, and reduced fuel consumption during intensive use. The smooth delivery of torque and progressive engine response allow it to effectively tackle deep drilling and high-resistance soils, making this earth auger suitable for professional agricultural, forestry, and construction environments where consistent performance and operational control are required.

Gear reducer with hardened steel gears

The reduction system is based on case-hardened and tempered steel gears , designed to withstand heavy loads and ensure a long operating life. The reduction gear converts the engine speed into stable and controlled auger rotation, ensuring effective and continuous torque transmission. This technical solution improves drilling precision and helps maintain high safety standards even in the most demanding operations.

High-strength steel auger and cutting elements

The steel auger , combined with a hardened tip and cutter , is designed to work on hard, compact, or mixed soils, ensuring high penetration capacity and superior wear resistance. The robust cutting tools reduce mechanical stress during drilling, limit vibrations, and allow for precise holes to be obtained in less time, improving overall operational efficiency.

Professional model for two operators

The Bluebird T 170 HO is a power drill specifically designed for two-man use , a key requirement for safely managing the engine's power, machine weight, and large-diameter drilling. The dual-handle configuration allows for balanced force distribution, ensuring stability, control, and precision throughout all work phases. This feature makes the model particularly suitable for demanding professional applications, where operational safety and operator coordination are essential.
