Operating Instructions
Your Titan Post Driver is designed to be as effective and efficient as possible, while being extremely powerful
and lightweight. It is very important to understand that your post driver is a powerful machine. With proper
use and maintenance, your Titan Post Driver will provide you with many years of service.
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, you must read and understand the safety and operating
instructions in this operator’s manual. Each and every new person who uses this machine must be
educated and fully understand this operator’s manual. Never allow an uninformed person to use your
Titan Post Driver.
The Titan Gas-Powered Post Driver is 100% self-contained. No other sources of power such as
hydraulics or air compressors are required.
Custom, center-bored reducer sleeves are available for the PGD2000 to use for ground rods, rebar,
and other types of stakes. DO NOT use without the correct size sleeve.
Be sure to read and understand the starting instructions for the Honda GX35 engine.
Your Honda GX35 engine is inclinable, which means it is designed to operate at any angle.
For optimum performance, the machine is designed to be used with low-grade viscosity grease. W
e
recommend Mobilux EP 0. Any other type of grease will be detrimental to the function of the machine.
For optimum performance and to prevent the potential for dry-fire or misfire, please follow these
guidelines:
1. Always maintain 10-12 pounds of down-pressure while driving a post.
2. Keep the driver level on the post at all times.
3. DO NOT allow the barrel of the driver to come in contact with the ground.
4. DO NOT push the throttle trigger unless driver is loaded on the post.
5. Your driver will arrive with grease in the crank. DO NOT ADD ANY ADDITIONAL GREASE UNTIL
NECESSARY. Check the crank grease level about every 3 months.
6. In the event of dry-fire or misfire, you will need to re-engage the anvil by lifting the driver up and
setting it back down on the post with some pressure applied.
7. Continual dry-fire or misfire will cause damage to your driver, which will not be covered under the
t
erms of the warranty.
