Warning!
You should hold your earth auger firmly
to control sudden jolts and reactive
forces. Be prepared to release the
throttle completely if the forces become
too great. If reactive forces are not
controlled, rotation of the handles may
result in severe jerking and loss of
control and may cause the handle frame
to strike you or throw you to the ground.
Your model earth auger is equipped with
an auger brake. If the auger hits
something it cannot drill through and the
powerhead begins to rotate so that the
auger brake activating lever strikes the
operator´s thigh and engages, the brake
is designed to stop the rotation of the
powerhead.
!
Warning!
In order to reduce the risk of serious or
fatal injury from reactive forces, never
operate your earth auger without a
properly functioning auger brake.
If the auger becomes trapped in the
drillhole, turn off the engine immediately
and remove as descripted in the chapter
entitled "Removing a Trapped Auger".

Warning!
Operate and start your earth auger only
outdoors in a well ventilated area.
Operate the earth auger under good
visibility and daylight conditions only.
Work carefully. Always hold the earth
auger firmly with both hands. Wrap your
fingers tightly around the handles,
keeping the handles cradled between
your thumb and fingers. Keep your
hands in this position to have your earth
auger under control at all times. Make
sure your earth auger handles and grip
are in good condition and free of
moisture, pitch, oil or grease.
DANGER!
Contact with electrical
cables or wires can cause
serious injury or death as
a result of electrical
shock. This unit is not
insulated.

Warning!
To reduce the risk of electrocution and
damage to property, always be alert for
underground pipes and cables and for
overhead wires. Before drilling, obtain
the necessary plans and permits.
Contact your local utility company or
your locator service, such as "Miss
Utility" or "One Call", for information as
to cable and pipe locations. Where
necessary, confirm actual location by
use of devices such as cable detectors
and/or by carefully dug trenches. Stay
clear of overhead electrical wires when
backing the drilling tool out of the hole. If
any portion of the machine strikes a
wire, it will cause electrical shock or
death.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of falling, be careful
when carrying or operating the machine
in slippery conditions when the ground is
wet, icy or snow covered. Special care
must also be taken on embankments
and slopes.
