You may make adjustments and repairs described here. For other repairs, have the post hole
digger serviced by an authorised service agent.
Consequences of improper maintenance may include excess carbon deposits resulting in loss
of performance and discharge of black oily residue dripping from the muf fler.
Make sure all guards, deflectors and handles are properly and securely attached to avoid the risk
of personal injury.
ENGINE
Clean the cylinder fins with compressed air or a brush periodically. Dangerous overheating of
engine may occur due to impurities on the cylinder.
REDUCTION GEARBOX
See figure 14
Every 100 working hours change the grease in the reduction gearbox.
LUBRICANT FOR REDUCTION GEARBOX
The post hole digger is supplied with TAMOIL TAMLITH GREASE 2 grease in the reduction gearbox.
The lubrication in the reduction gearbox should be checked periodically. To check the lubricant
condition and level, remove the pressure release screw under the reduction gearbox.
CLEANING AIR FILTER
See figure 16 & 17
A dirty air filter will cause starting difficulty, loss of performance, and shorten the life span of the
engine. Check the air filter monthly. For best performance, replace the air filter at least once
a year.
Loosen the airbox cover by turning the lock knob counter clockwise.
Remove the airbox cover, air filter retainer and the air
filter element.
Clean the foam filter element with warm soapy water. Rinse and let dry.
NOTE: If the foam filter element is damagd, it should be replaced.
Apply a light coat of engine oil to the foam filter element, then squeeze it out.
Reinstall the air filter.

Stop the engine and allow it to cool before making adjustments or completing any maintenance.
