6.
Once the required hole depth is reached, allow the
auger bit to briefly turn at depth to clean the hole of
debris.
7.
Stop the rotation of the auger bit. Raise the auger out
of the hole and move away from the hole. Resume
the rotation of the auger bit to remove the loose soil
from the auger bit.
NOTE:
Do not reverse the auger bit rotation to
remove the auger bit from the hole as loose
soil will fall back into the hole.
In some soil conditions or when excessive down
pressure is applied to the attachment, the auger bit
may “screw” itself into the ground and become stuck
causing the auger drive to stall. If this occurs,
reverse the auger bit direction and slowly raise the
attachment. Use the same procedure if the auger bit
becomes lodged under rocks, roots, or other large
obstructions.
8.
Raise the lift arms often while the auger is turning to
remove the dirt from the hole. Stop the auger when
the point is above the ground.
