Operation

■Stopping Engine

•Release the throttle lever and press on the red button until the engine comes to a complete stop.

•When the drill has been caught in the ground and cannot be pulled out, lock up the drill and rotate the auger to draw it back.

1.First stop the engine.

2.Put the lock pin into the holes provided on the gear case and output shaft.

3.Rotate the auger counter-clockwise as viewed from the operator.

■Drilling

•Keep a firm grip of the auger at all times on a wide stance and by holding the handle with both hands.

•A reacting motion may occur on the auger when spinning drill has hit on stones or tree roots under the ground. Always hold the auger securely to control such motion.

•Start drilling with half-throttle, and gradually increase the engine speed so that the drill may get into the ground smoothly.

■Adjustment of Idling Speed

•The engine idling speed is preadjusted at the factory so that the engine keeps running without moving the drill when releasing the throttle lever to the idling position. However, due to changes in engine conditions, it may be necessary to adjust the idling.

•To increase idling, screw idle adjustment screw in, until preferred speed is obtained. To decrease idling, unscrew idle adjustment screw until preferred speed is obtained.
