APF: Easy Petrol Post Driver to debut two new models

The Classic50 and Max107 models offer "enhanced power, efficiency and durability" and will make their debut at the forestry event next month. 

The former retains the same "durable and reliable engineering" as EPP's existing Classic35 (previously known just as the Petrol Post Driver), but now features a Honda GX50 engine to provide an extra little bit of horse power – 0.7 more horse power to be exact – for those slightly more challenging tasks.

An EPP statement added: "This power does also come with an extra weight of nearly 1kg , but it’s still lightweight enough to take out and about to get the job done."

Elsewhere, the brand-new Max107 also features the GX50 engine like the Classic50, but is a larger model that’s designed with the most arduous and demanding post driving tasks in mind. At 17.95 kg, it’s the heaviest of the three models.

A statement added: "Whether you decide to choose the Classic35, Classic50, 107Max or Marquee machine, all adapters on our machines are interchangeable so you can choose any adapter to suit your intended application – whether that be a multi-adapter for driving a variety of post sizes or single adapter. Plus, all of our machines are backed by a standard 3-year machine warranty, and Honda engine warranty.

"We’re delighted to be able to exhibit these new models for the first time to a range of trade professionals at both the APF show and GroundsFest next month. If you’re in attendance then please stop by and say hello to us and come and check out the new models for yourself!"

The Easy Petrol Post Driver, manufactured by Christie Engineering of Australia, is designed to knock any profile post into the ground. 

APF takes places at Warwickshire's Ragley Estate between September 19 and 21.
