Getting started
Fuel mixing ratio
Use a 2 % or 4 % (1:25 or 1:50) petrol/oil mixture (Fig.3, 4).
Only use a 1:25 (oil:petrol) mix ratio 20 hours before the machine runs.
№| Name| №| Name
1| Two-stroke oil| 2| Petrol (90 Octane)
Warning: Two-stroke engines are designed to operate with normal petrol.
Therefore, make sure to only use normal petrol and premium grade petrol with a
minimum octane rating of 90 and oil specifically designed for two-stroke
engines. Mix the two liquids before pouring them into the motor and ensure
that the liquids have intermixed with each other before carefully inserting
the fuel into the motor (Fig. 8).
Never fill the fuel tank while the motor is operating and instead ensure that
the motor has been turned off before placing the device on an even ground in
order to prevent two-stroke mixture from spilling in the process.
Important! When storing the device, make sure that the fuel has been drained completely. Do not use the device, if fuel should be leaking.
Starting the motor
- Bring the switch located on top of the control handle (Fig. 11, K) into the “Start” position.
- Next press both the security switch (Fig. 11, L) and the throttle lever (Fig. 11, M). Lock them in place by pressing the interlock (Fig. 11, N).
- Once the interlock (Fig. 11, N) has been used, let go off the security switch (Fig. 11, L) and the throttle lever (Fig. 11, M)
- Set the inductor switch (Fig. 10, J) to “Closed.”
- Repeatedly press the primer (Fig. 9, H) to pump fuel into the system.
- Repeatedly pull the rope start (Fig 12) until the motor starts running.
- Set the inductor switch (Fig. 10, J) back to the “Closed” position.
- Once the motor is operating, press the throttle lever (Fig. 11, M) to unlock the interlock (Fig. 11, N) and allow the device to run in idle mode.
Notes: Do not use the inductor if the engine is already warm. The inductor
is only used to perform cold starts. Also, the auger must not rotate while the
motor is operating in idle mode.
Warning not e: The motor must be stopped immediately, if the auger should
deform or break.
Note: When using the rope start:
- Do not let the rope rebound.
- Do not pull the rope as far as it will go, since this will damage the rope start.
- Always let the rope slide back slowly to allow it to roll up properly.
Switching off the Motor
- Place the throttle lever (Fig. 11, M) in idle position and let the device run in idle mode for 2–3 min to allow the motor to cool down.
- Turn the motor off by setting the switch (Fig. 11, K) to “stop.”
- Remove the auger from the device and clean both.
Important: Do not jerk the device to halt while it is running with full load as this might damage the device.
Maintenance
Air filter
The air filter should be cleaned after every 25 hours of operation. For the
air filter (Fig. 13, R) to be cleaned, the air filter casing (Fig. 13, Q) must
be removed. Use petrol to clean the filter and let it dry.
Carburettor
The carburettor is a very important component of the device. Its settings
(such as mixing ratio and idling drive power) have been pre-set by the
manufacturer and should not be changed. Please note that weather conditions as
well as altitude may influence the functions of the carburettor.
Petrol filter
Make sure to regularly check the petrol filter (Fig. 15, U) and replace it
immediately, in case of it being heavily polluted. A polluted petrol filter
may cause issues while starting the device as well as a loss of performance.
Motor
Make sure to regularly clean the cylinder fins with air pressure or a brush.
Polluted cylinder fins severely affect the internal cooling system of the
motor and might damage it.
Spark plug
Remove the spark plug wire and unscrew the spark plug. Clean both, the spark
plug as well as the spark plug wire, if dirt should have accumulated. Sand the
electrode with sand paper and set the distance of the electrode to 0.6–0.7 mm
(Fig. 16, V).
Auger
Check the condition of the auger before every use and sharpen or replace it,
if necessary. Always make sure to choose the auger according to the
requirements of the task at hand (Fig. 17). You can select different kinds of
bits as required (Fig. 17, Fig. 19) and the length of the bit is within 1 m.
The removable impact bit (Fig. 17, b, the nonremovable blade (Fig. 17, d), the
stainless-steel blade of the ice bit (Fig. 19, h) and the drill tip (Fig. 19,
g) can be bought separately.
Check and repair the blade (Fig. 18, e, f) regularly.
Reduction gear
If used normally, the valve cap (Fig. 20, W) must be checked and cleaned after
every 50 hours of oper-ation. Every 100 hours of operation, the gear grease
must be exchanged (Fig. 20, 1; 180 g).
Storage
- Always perform maintenance in accordance with the previously stated maintenance steps.
- If the ground drill should be stored for longer periods of time, make sure to clean it thoroughly and to grease all metal parts to prevent corrosion.
- Remove the auger from the device and clean and lubricate both components to prevent rust.
- Completely drain the fuel from the device and properly attach the tank cap once the procedure of draining has been completed.
- Remove the spark plug (Fig. 21, V) and insert some oil into the cylinder.
- Pull the rope start a few times after applying oil and rotate the crankshaft to distribute the oil.
- Reinsert the spark plug (Fig. 21, V).
- To protect the device from dust and other forms of pollution, wrap it into a plastic bag or foil.
- Store the ground drill within a dry environment inaccessible to children. Make thereby sure that it is stored with sufficient distance to the ground and potential heat sources.
