TIPS FOR DRILLING - CONTINUED

It is a misconception that a larger diameter hole can be obtained by

fi rst drilling with a smaller (pilot) auger and then with

a larger diameter auger “ream” the hole to the desired size.

This method does not allow the auger to produce suf

fi cient

directional stability for the larger diameter auger during the “reaming” process.

This method can also result in damage

to both the auger and the power head unit.

Keep the auger bit in good repair

. Change the auger

’s

teeth and pilot bit to keep them sharp and avoid wear into the

tooth holder

. See your

Authorized Dealer for a complete line of auger bits and specialty teeth for use in dif

fi cult or high

wear drilling applications.

Good maintenance is your responsibility

. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble.

Always use proper tools or equipment when conducting maintenance. Where replacement parts are necessary for

periodic maintenance and servicing, genuine factory replacement parts must be used to restore your attachment to

original speci

fi cations. Manufacturer will not claim responsibility for use of unapproved parts or accessories and other

damages as a result of their use. If equipment has been altered in any way from its original design, manufacturer does

not accept any liability for injury or warranty

.

CHANGING THE TRANSMISSION GREASE

Type of grease:

High temperature transmission grease classi

fi ed for extreme pressure applications.

Amount required:

6 oz (0.2 liters)

1. Change the grease every 25 hours of normal operation. Change the grease every 15 hours of operation in extremely

dusty or dirty conditions.

2. Drain the gasoline from the fuel tank into an approved container

.

3. Position the unit on a suitable work surface with the operator handle level with the surface. Wipe any dust or dirt from

the area where the gearbox separates.
