Fence Maintenance Made Easier

Post pullers are most often manually powered, though some can be hydraulic, gas or electric. Usually, you use them when building or fixing wire fencing — to remove T-posts, although some can pry up sign posts, stakes and concrete posts. They act like levers, increasing force, sometimes by thousands of pounds, to make the work lower-effort, which can help you save time and labor.

Frequently Asked Questions About Post Pullers

Why do I need a post puller?

It can help reduce physical strain, especially on your back, shoulders, and arms, not to mention help you pull more posts in less time — and with fewer people needing to help.

How do I use a post puller?

With a manual post puller, you position the grips on the post first, clamp them and then push your end of the lever toward its center point or fulcrum. This action pulls the other end of the lever up, wrenching your post out of the ground with it. With a gas or electric post puller, a motor drives the action. With a hydraulic post puller, you either push the lever down, like with a manual puller, or pressure from a pump or another fluid source does the pushing and pulling. Follow the directions in the owner’s manual from the manufacturer.

What are some tips for using a post puller more effectively?

Third, use consistent pressure when pushing the lever; it’ll help remove a post from soil more easily. Also, be sure to reset the jaws each time you line up and clamp a post to help get better pulling results.
