OPERATION
1. The clutch will transfer maximum power after about two
hours of normal operation. During this break-in period clutch
slippage may occur. The clutch should be kept free of oil or
other moisture for ecient operation.
2. Drill holes without placing body weight on the unit. The auger
operates most eciently with a shaving action caused by the
weight of the unit itself.

been done, align hole at top of shaft with output shaft hole.
Insert bolt and secure bolt with provided allen wrench.
NOTE: The ends of the bolt should be ush with auger collar.
Bolt head and thread end should never go beyond ice collar.
Cold Engine Start:
Starting engine for rst time or after engine has cooled o or
