The Efficient Solution for Municipalities and Parks Departments
Public works departments and park rangers are constantly asked to do more with less. Whether it is installing new trail markers, repairing perimeter fencing, or putting up temporary event signage, relying on manual labor is a liability. Sledgehammers cause injuries, fatigue crews, and slow down critical infrastructure projects.
You need fence post installation tools that are safe, reliable, and American-made.
Meet the Man Saver Post Driver. It is the handheld post driver that allows a single worker to perform the job of a three-person crew. Lightweight and portable, it is the ideal solution for remote trail maintenance, highway sign installation, and securing public facilities without heavy equipment.
Why Public Works Directors Choose the Man Saver
Fast & Safe Sign Installation
Municipalities rely on the Man Saver for more than just fences. It is the perfect pneumatic post driver for driving U-channel posts, square tubing, and breakaway anchors for road signs. With the right post driver adapters, your crew can install traffic signs and parking markers in minutes, keeping them off the busy roadside faster.
Portable Power for Remote Trails
Maintaining state parks and recreational trails often means working where trucks cannot go. The Man Saver is a truly portable post driver. It runs off a small, portable air compressor for pneumatic post driver use, allowing rangers to hike or ATV into remote areas to drive trail markers and retaining walls without dragging heavy hydraulic rigs.
Reduce Liability & Crew Injury
Worker safety is paramount in the public sector. Manual post driving is a leading cause of back and shoulder injuries. By switching to a pneumatic t post driver, you eliminate the physical strain of swinging a hammer. It allows for a one man post driver operation that is safer, ergonomic, and reduces workers' compensation claims.

We are very impressed with the two 99E-W post drivers. All the guys love how light they are and how well they do the job. They told me these will not work. They are too small. Boy, were they wrong. All the guys at Universal Studios Hollywood give you a big high five.

Yes. Government procurement often requires domestic manufacturing. The Rohrer Man Saver is proudly made in the USA in Prineville, Oregon. We stand by the quality of our tools and support local manufacturing, which is a key requirement for many municipal and state contracts.
Extremely portable. Unlike hydraulic systems that require a tractor or PTO, the Man Saver is a handheld post driver that weighs as little as 26 lbs. A trail crew can easily transport the driver and a small gas-powered air compressor in a UTV or even a wheelbarrow to reach remote fencing or signage locations.
No. Public works fleets need tools that are easy to maintain. The Man Saver requires only basic lubrication. We recommend using an inline oiler for pneumatic tools to keep the piston running smoothly. We also stock all replacement post driver parts to ensure your department's tools remain in service for years.
