is an efficient and effective tool developed 

to tackle a challenging and time consum-

ing task, driving ground rod. 

With proper care and maintenance, your 

Rhino

®

 Ground Rod Installation Tool 

will give you many years of trouble free 

service. 

It is very important to understand that a 

post driver is a powerful machine. You 

must read and understand your post driver 

operating instructions before using the 

post driver or any accessory in conjunction 

with the post driver. It is also very impor-

tant that you make sure all operators are 

trained to operate your post driver safely. 

If you or any operator doesn’t understand 

any of the instructions in this manual, call 

Rhino Tool Company at 866-707-1808 

or 309-853-5555 and we will answer any 

questions you may have, or visit our web-

site at www.rhintool.com to locate your 

nearest Rhino dealer or distributor. 

Visually inspect your Ground Rod Instal

-

lation Tool before use. The interior of the 

chuck tube should be checked for obstruc-

tions, damage or wear. The outer surfaces 

of the driver should also be inspected for 

any defects. Do not use any accessories if 

there is any damage or wear until the dam-

age or wear is corrected and repaired. 

INSTALLING / DRIVING GROUND 

ROD USING THE GROUND ROD

position where the operator can easily 

set the post driver and the Ground Rod 

Installation Drive Cap on top of the metal 

guide pin on the side of the Ground Rod

to tighten down the bolts once the block is 

positioned.
