RedMax Power Auger AG2300 - Manual (Page 11)

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