OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Thoroughly read and understand your Operator’s
Manuals.
• Before beginning operation, clear area of objects that
wrap around the auger or might be thrown. Contact
local utility company to make certain there are no
buried gas lines, electrical cables, etc., in the work
area. Check for ditches, stumps, holes, or other
obstacles that could cause the tractor to roll.
• Layout and mark where you want to dig your holes.
• ALL persons should be at least twenty-five feet (25’)
away. Clear the area of helpers, bystanders, especial-
ly children.
• Do not allow anyone to stand behind, or to the side of
a rotating auger.
• In some types of soil, it may be necessary to hold back
against the auger screw suction by moving the
hydraulic control lever to “HOLD” or “RAISE” position
to keep the auger from screwing into the ground.
• NEVER use body weight to help the auger
penetrate the ground. (3 pt. Hitch Models) When the
ground is too tough to penetrate with your cutting
edges and point, sharpen or replace them and try
again. These are replaceable parts and must be in
good condition to penetrate.
(Optional Hydraulic
Downpressure Kit is available for 3 pt. models – order
#709025.)
• If you have difficulty penetrating hard ground, refer to
Owner’s Manual Troubleshooting section for
suggestions.
• Do not shovel dirt away from a rotating auger as the
shovel can be caught and thrown by the auger.
• Disengage the hydraulic oil flow when traveling
between holes.
PREPARATION PROCEDURE
This Post Hole Digger was designed for one-man
operation from the operator’s seat. It is the responsibili-
ty of the operator to see that no one else is within twen-
ty-five feet (25’) of the digger when it is started.
• Set power unit brakes.
• Take power unit out of gear. Shift to “Park” (if applica-
ble).
• Lower auger point slowly to the ground with the
hydraulics disengaged.
• With the auger point lowered to the ground, set the
engine speed to idle, then engage the hydraulic
power. Make sure the auger point is on the ground
before engaging the hydraulic oil flow.
• Increase the speed as required so dirt is conveyed
from the hole.
• When digging holes on a slope, always have the post
hole digger facing uphill.
• Only use a power unit equipped with a ROPS cab or
roll-over protective structure.
