Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Do I need an operator's license or ticket? No formal earthmoving license is required for DIY hire. The Kanga 8 Series features intuitive, soft-touch hand controls. We provide a detailed safety and operational briefing at handover to ensure you are fully confident. Can this auger cut through Bendigo’s hard clay and rock? Yes. Anyone who has dug a hole in Bendigo knows about our notorious dense goldfields clay and reef rock. Small petrol dingos bounce off this ground. The heavy-duty 8 Series forces the auger down with intense hydraulic torque, cutting through tough local clay profiles efficiently. How do I transport the loader? The combined weight of the loader, attachments, and its dedicated plant trailer is approx. 1.6 tonnes. To pick it up yourself, your vehicle must have a certified braked towing capacity of at least 2.0 tonnes. (If you only offer delivery, replace with: "We offer a direct drop-off and pick-up delivery service throughout the greater Bendigo area to save you the hassle of towing. Contact us for a delivery quote.") Should I check for underground pipes before drilling? Yes. It is a critical safety requirement to lodge a free query with Before You Dig Australia (BYDA) before your project begins to locate hidden utility lines.
