Stop the engine
Press the stop switch (11) in the 'Stop' position.
When restarting, first press the stop switch (11) back to
the 'Start' position.
Before starting the motor, check the following:
• Fuel level - the fuel tank should be at least half full
• Condition of the fuel lines
• Outer screw couplings for tight fit
• The earth auger has to be able to run freely
Operating
• Set the auger down and actuate the throttle control
lever (13).
• Adjust the power according to the ground conditions
in order to be able to proceed ideally.
• If the ground condition is ideal, permitting a steady
work speed, using the adjusting screw, you can lock
the throttle control lever (13) (in the centre position)
in order to make your work easier.
When leaving the auger, the motor must always be
turned off.

Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning
• We recommend that you clean the device immedi-
ately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and
some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or sol-
vents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equip-
ment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device.
Maintenance
For all work on the machine, the spark plug cap and the
spark plug have to be removed (high voltage).
Please adhere to the maintenance schedule.
Daily before beginning work
Check fuel tank and fuel lines for tightness.
Check mounting parts, exhaust cover, air filter cover,
oil, position of the auger and functioning of the oper-
ating elements.
After 20 operating hours
Clean air filter and check spark plug
After 100 operating hours
Clean fuel tank and replace spark plug.
Lubricate transmission.
After 300 operating hours
Replace air filter
Important notice in the event of repairs:
When sending earth augers to be repaired, please note
that, for safety reasons, they must be delivered to the
service station free from oil and petrol.
Warning!
No smoking and no open fire.
Risk of explosion.
Air filter (fig. 4 - 5)
Regular cleaning of the air filter prevents carburettor
malfunctions.
Cleaning the air filter and replacing the air filter insert:
• Loosen the screw (E) on the air filter casing (3), re-
move the air filter cover and check it.
• Replace the damaged element.
• Clean dirt from the inside of the filter casing with a
clean, damp cloth.
• Carefully remove the air filter insert (F) and check it
for damage, replace if required.
• Clean the foam filter insert (F) in warm water and
with a mild soap solution. Thoroughly rinse it with
clear water and leave it to dry.
Warning!
Do not use petrol or cleanser.
Risk of explosion.
• Return the air filter insert (F) and reposition the air
filter casing.
Do not run the motor without an air filter insert or when
it is damaged. This can cause motor damage.
In this case: The manufacturer is not liable for damage
resulting from this; the risk lies exclusively with the user.
Spark plug (fig. 6 - 7)
The exhaust/casing becomes very hot during opera-
tion. Wait for the motor to cool down.
NEVER touch the hot motor.
• Remove the spark plug cap (8).
• Remove the spark plug (I) and check it.
• Check the insulator. In case of damage such as
cracks or chips: Replace the spark plug (I).
• Clean the spark plug electrodes with a wire brush.
• Check the electrodes' gap and adjust it. Gap 0.75 mm.
• Return the spark plug (I) and tighten it with the spark
plug spanner.
