    3 pt hitch won't lift auger out of ground

    Thanks for all the replies guys. I will watch the video for sure. I have one more question. I have a front bucket, will that affect my hitch pressure? When we were digging, I had the bucket about 4 feet off the ground. I didn't try it with the bucket on the ground. Could that have an affect...
