It's definately not farmerized. I have a similarly constructed post hole digger on a Farmall H. Mine says "ATOM MFG. CO. MOLINE, ILL" on the top of the gearbox. Mine doesn't have the handwheel, it has a really long hydraulic cylinder to raise and lower the auger. It has a 2-way hyd. valve that the control rod goes to a shorter bracket where your handwheel is. The way it pivots on the front and the upright supports are the same. Looks like the same angle iron and the same adjustment lever along the side of the tractor. Is the shaft that goes through the gearbox hex-shaped and is there a thrust bearing at the top?
I always wondered if the operator could drill out a tunnel with it.
