WARNING: Read and thoroughly understand all instructions
and safety information before assembling or operating this post
hole digger. Failure to do so may cause serious injury or death.
Step 1: Lower auger.
After attaching the post hole digger to the tractor, before engaging
the power, slowly lower the auger to the ground at the desired
angle for hole digging.
Step 2: Engage PTO.
Engage the power take off and start digging at a slow speed
lowering the auger slowly as the hole is dug.
Step 3: Increase speed.
Increase the speed as the auger goes deeper into the ground. e
type of soil will determine the proper auger speed. A very hard or
compacted soil may require operation at varying speeds to be the
most efficient in digging.
NEVER ALLOW THE TRACTOR’S ENGINE TO RUN
WHILE MANUALLY DISLODGING AN OBSTACLE.
If a rock or other obstacle is encountered that is too large for the
auger to displace the post hole digger will begin to vibrate. Slowly
withdraw the auger from the hole completely. Turn off the tractor’s
power and remove the obstacle manually. Slowly lower the auger
into the hole and engage the power to complete digging the hole.
Step 4: Removing the auger.
After the desired hole depth has been reached, spin the auger at
a high speed to clear the hole of soil. Reduce the speed before
withdrawing the auger from the hole.
Step 5: Disengage PTO.
Disengage the power take off after withdrawing the auger from the
hole and move to the next desired hole location.
