Congratulations on your selection of the 

Rhino

®

 GPD-40 Fence Pro

  post driver. 

We are certain that you will be pleased 

with your purchase. GPD-40 Fence Pro

 

post driver is built with extremely high 

quality components. From the fasteners 

to the venerable Honda GX35 engine, 

every component of this post driver is first 

quality.
Whether you are a farmer, a vintner, a sign 

installer or a professional fence contractor, 

we want you to get the best results from 

your new Rhino

®

 post driver and to 

operate it safely. This manual contains the 

information on how to do just that; please 

read it carefully.
This post driver was assembled with the 

Honda GX35 engine. Honda supplies its 

own owner’s manual that covers all the 

operator and service issues associated with 

the Honda engine. Please read this manual 

as closely as you do the Rhino manual. 

The success that you experience with this 

tool is dependent upon your knowledge 

and understanding of how to properly 

operate and care for the Honda engine 

installed on your new post driver.

As you read this manual, you will find 

information preceded by a NOTICE 

symbol. That information is intended to 

help you avoid damage to your post driver, 

other property, or the environment.
We suggest you read the warranty 

information fully and understand its 

coverage and your responsibilities 

of ownership. Fill out the warranty 

registration card or online registration 

to receive Rhino

®

 Lifetime Limited 

Warranty.
Please read and understand the Honda 

warranty policy. The Honda warranty is 

separate from the Rhino

®

 warranty and is 

subject to its own coverage conditions and 

responsibility requirements. The warranty 

is a separate document and should have 

been included with the Honda owner’s 

manual.
When your Rhino

®

 post driver needs 

scheduled maintenance, the technical ser-

vice staff here at Rhino Tool Company is 

standing by to assist you if you require as-

sistance. Our fully trained staff can ensure 

that you receive the correct service kit or 

direct you to the nearest Rhino Servicing 

Dealer. 
 If it is the engine that requires scheduled 

maintenance, keep in mind that your 

Honda service dealer is fully equipped and 

specially trained in servicing the Honda 

engine. Your Honda servicing dealer is 

dedicated to your satisfaction, and will 

be pleased to answer your questions and 

concerns.
Again, congratulations on your selection 

and from the dedicated team here at 

Rhino Tool Company, THANK YOU for 

choosing a genuine Rhino

®

 post driver.

Kindest Regards, 

The Rhino Tool Team
