How to use

Select an appropriate auger bit and position the tool vertically over the planned hole location.

Withdraw periodically to clear soil from the bit if needed and continue until the required depth is reached. Ensure the unit is stable and that bystanders are at a safe distance during operation.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable personal protective equipment (gloves, eye protection and hearing protection). Inspect the work area for underground utilities before drilling and avoid large rocks or roots that may damage the auger. For compacted or rocky soils, consider pre-drilling or using a smaller diameter pilot bit. After use, clean soil from the bit and store the tool in a dry place.
