Maintenance/Repair/Storage/Transportation
Use only genuine, approved, replacement parts and accessories for replacement and repair.
Always properly maintain the EDCO 2PH. Check all fasteners and individual parts prior to every
operation. Designed safety features are only e
ff
ective if they are maintained and in good working
order. All maintenance should be completed by a competent and trained technician or service facil-
ity. If proper maintenance is not performed, personal injury and/or property damage will occur.
Review the engine throttle control and throttle cable linkages and ensure they are not damaged and
allow for complete range of motion as designed.
Do not operate the EDCO 2PH with a faulty or damaged throttle control and throttle cable linkage.
If any decal becomes damaged and/or illegible, replace with genuine, factory replacement decals
only.
Replace the auger teeth and screw tip when signs of excessive wear become apparent. When
these components are not replaced, the boring head and auger
fl
ighting will begin to wear, causing
an inverted cone auger reducing productivity and potential property damage and/or personal injury.
The EDCO 2PH utilizes handle bars specially designed to reduce weight and help absorb the shock
loads transmitted to the operator during the digging process. This material is not as abrasion re-
sistant as steel and cannot handle the same amount of surface damage as steel. Do not allow the
handle bar material to come in to contact with sharp objects. Keep handles clean and free of dirt
and moisture.
Do not utilize chains or slings strapped around the handle bar material to help remove a stuck
EDCO 2PH. This will cause damage to the handle bar material and to the transmission.
EDCO 2PH handle bars have a maximum service life of 6 years.
DANGER!
The composite handle bar material does not eliminate the potential for property damage
or personal injury if the machine is to contact an electrical cable.
