THE EARTH AUGER
For illustrations and definitions of the
earth auger parts see the chapters on
"Parts and Controls" and "Definitions".
Never modify an earth auger in any way.
Only drilling tools supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with the specific STIHL earth auger
models are authorized. Use of other
drilling tools may increase the risk of
injury.
Other tools, adaptors or fittings may
mount to the auger, but may increase
the risk of injury or death.
THE USE OF THE EARTH AUGER
Transporting the earth auger
!
Warning!
Always stop the engine before putting
the earth auger down or carrying it.
Carrying an earth auger with the engine
running is dangerous.
Accidental acceleration of the engine
can cause the drilling tool to rotate.
During operation, the powerhead muffler
and the material around it reach
extremely high temperatures. Avoid
setting down a hot unit onto dry,
flammable material, or touching the hot
muffler, you could receive serious burns.
English / USA
By hand: Carry the earth auger with the
drilling tool pointing to the rear – with the
hot muffler away from your body.
Transporting by vehicle: When
transporting in a vehicle, properly secure
your power tool to prevent turnover, fuel
spillage and damage.
When the power tool is not in use, shut it
off and put it down so it cannot endanger
others.
!
Warning!
Your earth auger
produces toxic exhaust
fumes as soon as the
combustion engine is
running. These gases
(e.g. carbon monoxide)
may be colorless and odorless. To
reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury
from breathing toxic fumes, never run
the earth auger indoors or in poorly
ventilated locations. Ensure proper
ventilation when working in trenches or
other confined areas.
