PD-45/PD-55 SAFETY
The Rhino
®
PD-45 and PD-55 Post Drivers are designed to drive
many types of post and other like items into the ground. (See
Chart on page iii) Uses, other than those intended, can result in
injury to the operator, others near by, or damage to the driver and
to the surrounding area may result as well.
This post driver is intended for use by professional installers.
Never allow untrained personnel or children to operate this tool.
Most accidents can be prevented if you follow all instructions in
this manual and on the post driver. The most common hazards
are described in the following text, along with the best method
to protect yourself and others. If you or any operator doesn’t
understand any of the instructions, call Rhino at (309) 853-
5555 or toll free 866-707-1808. In Europe contact Eurogate Int.
(0031) (0) 523 638286 or (0031) (0) 610 502607. It is
VERY
IMPORTANT
to understand that your driver is a very powerful
machine.
AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH,
READ BEFORE USING YOUR POST
DRIVER!
UNDERGROUND UTILITIES:
Be
absolutely sure you know where all
underground utilities are before driving so
you can avoid hitting them while driving a post into the ground.
Utilities include but are not limited to Electric, Gas, Telephone,
Water, Sewer, TV Cable, Lawn Sprinklers, Etc. Hitting an
underground utility could be
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS
for
the operator and others.
AIR PRESSURE:
It is strongly
recommended that you use a Filter-Regulator-
Lubricator in combination with your Rhino
Air Operated Post Driver. The use of the pressure regulator is
required for safety. Set the pressure regulator at 90 PSI (6.2 bar).
Higher air pressures will not make your driver perform better.
High air pressure could cause your post driver to lift off and fall
from the post causing serious injury or death. Do not tie down the
throttle valve so it will not shut off when released. If the throttle
valve does not stop the unit immediately when released, repair
or replace it.
Slowly squeeze the air throttle valve lever to
start the driver
. Opening the throttle valve slowly will prevent a
violent start of the driver. Never use anything to keep the throttle
valve lever in the open position other than the operator’s hand.
For safety, the valve must close, stopping the drive, when the
operator releases the valve lever.
CHUCK SIZING:
A chuck or chuck adapter
that is too large for the post being driven may
contribute to a condition which would allow
the post driver to fall from the post causing serious injury or
death. Do not use a chuck or chuck adapter that is too large for
the post being driven. The post should be loose in the chuck or
