Symptom
Explanation/Procedure
Post lodged in the
driver
I
n the event that a driven post flares and becomes lodged within the chuck, follow these steps:
1.
Turn engine off. Remove the four 5/16” lower body bolts and separate the lower body casting from the driver body.
2.
Slide the lower body casting down the post to expose the flared top of the post. With the proper cutting tool for the type
of post, cut through the post below the flared portion.
3.
Once the flared portion is removed, slide the lower body casting off the post and reassemble it to the driver. Please
follow bolt tightening procedure and use threadlocker.
Drives post slow
or sluggish engine
performance:
Typically this is resulting from improper driver storage or over-filling the oil causing the oil to seep into the combustion
chamber. Position the driver vertically, remove the dipstick to check oil level. (See page 6) If you need to remove some oil,
dispose of it properly.
If oil is at proper level, follow the procedure listed in “Pull-start is frozen or hard to pull.”
Pull-start is frozen
or hard to pull:
This typically results from oil seeping into the combustion chamber from improper driver storage or overfilling the oil reservoir of the en-
gine. Remove spark plug and pull hand grip several times until it pulls freely. Replace the spark plug. Check the oil level in oil reservoir
to ensure proper level (page 6). Follow starting procedure. It is not unusual, for blue smoke to be emitted from the engine, let the engine
run until smoke clears.
Proper Storage:
Do not lay horizontally on the driver side or resting on the engine. If the unit cannot be stored securely in the upright position, place the
chuck on a flat surface, leaning toward the engine side until it is supported by the shroud and chuck. Position the driver on an angle with
the top handle at the topmost point.
