TROUBLESHOOTING

Symptom Explanation/Procedure

Post lodged in the driver| In the event that a driven post flares and becomes lodged within the chuck, follow these steps:

  1. Turn engine off. Remove the four 5/16” lower body bolts and separate the lower body casting from the driver body.
  2. Slide the lower body casting down the post to expose the flared top of the post. With the proper cutting tool for the type of post, cut through the post below the flared portion.
  3. Once the flared portion is removed, slide the lower body casting off the post and reassemble it to the driver. Please follow bolt tightening procedure and use threadlocker.

Recommendation: Do not use “thin-wall” or light gauge round post with the Fence Pro . It is very likely to flare this type of post at full throttle.

Drives post slow or sluggish engine performance:| Typically this is resulting from improper driver storage or over-filling the oil causing the oil to seep into the combustion chamber. Position the driver vertically, remove the dipstick to check oil level. (See page 6) If you need to remove some oil, dispose of it properly. If oil is at proper level, follow the procedure listed in “Pull-start is frozen or hard to pull.”
Pull-start is frozen or hard to pull:| This typically results from oil seeping into the combustion chamber from improper driver storage or overfilling the oil reservoir of the engine. Remove spark plug and pull hand grip several times until it pulls freely. Replace the spark plug. Check the oil level in oil reservoir to ensure proper level (page 6). Follow starting procedure. It is not unusual, for blue smoke to be emitted from the engine, let the engine run until smoke clears.
Proper Storage:| Do not lay horizontally on the driver side or resting on the engine. If the unit cannot be stored securely in the upright position, place the chuck on a flat surface, leaning toward the engine side until it is supported by the shroud and chuck. Position the driver on an angle with the top handle at the topmost point.
