• Replace the spark plug cap (8) on the spark plug (I).
Ensure that no dirt gets into the cylinder head during
replacement.
Check the position of the spark plug (I).
• A loose spark plug (I) can damage the motor by
overheating.
• Tightening it too much can damage the thread in the
cylinder head.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting
from this, the risk lies exclusively with the user.
Replacing the fuel filter (fig. 8)
The felt filter (J) of the fuel filter can become clogged.
It is recommended to replace the fuel filter once every
three months in order to ensure unimpeded fuel flow to
the carburetor.
To remove the fuel filter for replacement, pull it out
through the tank filler neck using a piece of wire bent at
one end to form a hook.

10. Storage/Transport
Transport
Leave the motor to cool down before transporting the

the casing (risk of burning).
30 | GB
When transporting the auger in a vehicle, it must be
stored safely.
The fuel tank (2) must be emptied completely before
transport.
Storage
Never store an auger for longer than 30 days without
carrying out the following steps.
Follow the cleaning instructions and maintenance in-
structions before storing the device!
Storing the auger
If you store an auger for longer than 30 days, it must
be prepared ahead of time. Unless the storage instruc-
tions are followed, fuel remaining in the carburetor will
evaporate, leaving gum-like deposits.
This could lead to difficult starting and result in cost-
ly repairs.
• Remove the fuel tank cap slowly to release any pres-
sure in tank. Carefully drain the fuel tank.
• Start the engine and let it run until the engine stops
in order to remove the fuel from the carburettor.
• Allow the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
• Remove the spark plug.
• Pour 1 teaspoon of clean 2-cycle oil into the combus-
tion chamber. Pull starter rope slowly several times
to coat internal components. Replace spark plug.
• Store the auger in a dry location, far away from po-
tential sources of ignition, such as furnaces, hot wa-
ter boilers with gas, gas dryers, etc.
Recommissioning the auger
• Remove spark plug.
• Pull starter rope briskly to clear excess oil from com-
bustion chamber.
• Clean the spark plug and check that the electrode
gap is correct.
• Prepare unit for operation.
• Fill fuel tank with proper fuel / oil mixture.
