SOLAR RIG SPECIAL: ramming posts on a solar site? Add the 1 800 J rammer to a JCS500 solar rig for R105 000 + VAT. Rig and rammer together come to R1 255 000 + VAT, until Friday 16 October or while stock lasts.

The rammer mounts on the JCS500 mast to drive solar posts, so one machine drills the holes where the ground is hard and rams the posts.

QUESTION for farmers, fencers and contractors: what else would you use this rig for?

The JCS500 is sold as a solar rig. It is a crawler machine that augers holes in soil, drills them in rock with a DTH hammer (130 to 400 mm wide, up to 4 m deep in one pass), and with the rammer it drives posts straight into the ground.

Solar farms are only one job. We can think of a few more:
- planting poles for shade netting and hail netting
- game fencing and security fencing
- vineyard and orchard trellis posts
- pole barns and carports

What have we missed? Tell us in the comments where you would put a machine like this to work, and tag someone who plants posts for a living.

Everyone quotes "80% of hydraulic failures are caused by dirt". Nobody can show you the study. What you can find is the number every pump maker prints on its data sheet, and it is strict.

On a drill site the dust gets in through the cylinder rods, the tank breather and the fill. A common filler-cap breather is 40 micron while the return filter is 10. Fresh oil from the drum can be dirtier than the pump allows.

How to fill, filter and sample a rig's hydraulics, and what a filter element costs next to a new pump.

ISO 4406 targets from Rexroth, Danfoss and Vickers, how dust and water get into a drill rig's hydraulics, and filter and oil prices vs pump repair in rand.

Mopani District has 1 743 boreholes and 991 of them work. Most of the rest are waiting for power or have been stripped, but some are clogged, fouled or caving in, and that's rig work.

Airlifting and jetting run off the rig and compressor you already own. Iron-fouled holes in the Cape need attention every year. The catch is pricing it so the diesel doesn't eat the job.

Why yields drop, what rehab jobs are advertised at in 2026, and when a new hole is the better call.

Why borehole yields drop, what SA data says about failing boreholes, 2026 prices for camera, airlift, jetting and liners, and when to drill new instead.
