WARNING!
To prevent serious injury or death:
1.
With auger attached to the gearbox shaft, lower
3-point so that the auger tip is resting on the ground.
2.
While supporting yoke tube (#4), remove pivot
pin (#1) at boom and yoke tube connection (#3). Be
careful not to lose spacers (#5).
3.
Reposition boom and yoke tube connection (#3) to
best suit type of tractor this unit is mounted to
achieve a hole depth of 40".
4.
Reinstall pivot pin (#1) and bushings (#5). Secure
pivot pin with cotter pin (#2). Bend one or more legs
of cotter pin to keep cotter pin from falling out.
5.
If desired hole depth cannot be achieved, an auger
extension shaft may need to be used, (extension
shafts are sold as an option. See
on page 23 for part numbers.)
6.
If a Land Pride Post Hole Digger Down Pressure Kit is
in use and the boom and yoke tube connection has
been changed, the Down Pressure Kit will also need
to be reset. See
page 27 of this manual.
