Stikemaster auger question

[Paul S]

Has anyone ever changed the shafts on the strikmaster from the chipper blade to the smooth style blades? I have a Mag 2000 2hp with single chipper blade and am considering buying the shaft for the lazer blades and was wondering how well that would work?

Thanks

Call Strikemaster to be sure. But when I just talked to them I believe the guy said you can.

I think several people on this forum have and you will be amazed at the difference!

I'd go further than just within the same brand augers. I have an Eskimo shark with a Strikemaster Lazer Mag drill. You do need to be sure to also get the mounting bolt for the drill, because the S/M uses a 5/16"(or metric equiv) and the Eskimo uses a 3/8" (or metric equiv). But the conversion in this case is a "bolt on". Works SWEET!!

One of the beauties of a Strikemaster auger is all of the power drills are interchangeable, even onto the 3hp models. I've been rolling over the thought of getting a 224 drill, but do I really need to go faster than my Lazer? Probably not, or that is what my wife says.

i have the 2000 and put a 10 inch lazer auger on it and it works great
