Refueling:
Note: Two-stroke motor, mixing ratio 1:40
FOLLOW THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS!
Be careful and cautious when handling fuels.
- The engine must be switched off!
- Thoroughly clean the area around the caps, to prevent dirt from getting into the fuel or oil tank.
- Unscrew the cap and fill the tank with fuel (fuel/oil mixture) or chain oil as the case may be. Fill up to the bottom edge of the filler neck.
- Be careful not to spill fuel or chain oil!
- Tighten the tank cap as far as it will go.
- After refueling, clean the tank cap and surroundings and make sure the cap is sealed!
NOTE:
Always pre-mix the intended oil volume in half of the fuel volume to produce
the fuel/oil mixture and then add the remaining fuel volume. Shake the
finished mixture well before filling the mixture into the auger. It is not
wise to add more engine oil than specified to ensure safe operation. This will
only result in higher production of combustion residues which will pollute the
environment and clog the exhaust channel in the cylinder as well as the
muffler. In addition, fuel consumption will rise and performance will
decrease.
The storage of fuel
Fuels have a limited storage life. Fuel and fuel mixtures age through
evaporation, especially at high temperatures. Aged fuel and fuel mixtures can
cause starting problems and damage the engine.Purchase only that amount of
fuel, which will be consumed over the next few months. At high temperatures,
once fuel has been mixed it should be used up in 6-8 weeks.
Store fuel only in proper containers, in dry, cool, secure locations!
Avoid skin and eye contact!
Mineral oil products degrease your skin. If your skin comes in contact with
these substances repeatedly and for an extended period of time, it will
desiccate. Various skin diseases may result. In addition, allergic reactions
are known to occur. Eyes can be irritated by contact with oil. If oil comes
into your eyes, immediately wash them with clear water. If your eyes are still
irritated, see a doctor immediately!
Check fuel lines, fuel tank cap, and fuel tank for leakages or tears.
Do not start the machine with such damage.
Do not refuel the machine when the motor is still hot or running.
Never refuel the machine close to an open flame.
Period of use:
Using the earth auger can lead to poor circulation in the fingers, hands or
wrists. Symptoms such as pins and needles, pain, stinging and changes in the
skin can occur.
If these symptoms occur, seek medical help. Use appropriate gloves and take
regular breaks.
Keep this safety information in a safe place.

Inserting the earth auger, fig. 2
- Place the motor casing on a workbench. Place the earth auger (7) on the drive shaft (6), ensuring that both holes are aligned.
- Insert the driving pin (A).
- Secure with split pin (B) and slightly bend it.
Fuelling fig. 1
- Open the fuel tank cap (15).
- Pour in the fuel mixture using a funnel.
- Do not fill the tank completely as fuel expands.
- Close the fuel tank cap (15) tightly and clean the area from possibly spilled fuel mixture.
Fuel mixture
The auger‘s motor is a two-stroke motor. It is driven by a 1:40 fuel mixture
made up of two-stroke oil and fuel. The fuel requires unleaded ordinary petrol
with a research octane count of at least 91. Lubrication of the motor takes
place by adding premium two-stroke oil.
Do not mix the fuel mixture in the fuel tank. Use the mixing container
supplied or another appropriate container. Only pour the fuel mixture into the
fuel tank after previously mixing and stirring it well.
- Use fresh, clean fuel. Water and contaminants in the petrol damage the fuel system.
- Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the motor not running. If the motor was in use directly prior to refueling, leave it to cool down first. Never refuel the machine in a building where the petrol fumes can reach flames or sparks.
- Petrol is highly flammable and explosive. When handling fuel, you may suffer burns or other severe injuries.
- Turn off the motor and keep away from heat, sparks and flames.
- Only ever refuel outside.
- Wipe up spilled petrol straight away.
