Figure 3: Proper two-person operation of the earth auger for stability and control.

• Always operate the auger with two people, each holding a handle firmly.
• Position the auger bit over the desired drilling location.
• Slowly increase the throttle to engage the auger bit.
• Apply steady, downward pressure as the auger drills into the soil. Avoid excessive force.
• Periodically lift the auger slightly to clear loose soil from the hole and prevent jamming.
• If the auger jams, immediately release the throttle and turn off the engine. Carefully remove the auger from the hole.

5.3 Zastavení motoru

6. Údržba

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your earth auger.

• Čištění: After each use, clean the auger bit and power head of dirt and debris. Use a damp cloth for the engine housing.
• Vzduchový filtr: Check and clean the air filter regularly, especially in dusty conditions. A dirty air filter can reduce engine performance.
• Zapalovací svíčka: Pravidelně kontrolujte zapalovací svíčku. Pokud je znečištěná nebo opotřebovaná, vyčistěte ji nebo vyměňte.
• Palivový systém: Pro dlouhodobé skladování (déle než 30 dní) vypusťte palivovou nádrž a nechte motor běžet, dokud se nezastaví, aby se karburátor vyčistil od paliva. Tím se zabrání degradaci paliva a jeho zatuhnutí.
• Auger Bit: Inspect the auger bit for wear or damage. Sharpen or replace as needed.
