Refuelling:
Note: Two-stroke motor, mixing ratio 1:50 (oil:gasoline)
FOLLOW THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS!
Be careful and cautious when handling fuels.
The engine must be switched off !
Thoroughly clean the area around the caps, to prevent dirt from getting into the fuel tank.
Unscrew the cap and fill the tank with fuel (fuel/oil mixture). Fill up to the bottom edge of the filler neck.
Be careful not to spill fuel !
Tighten the tank cap as far as it will go.
After refuelling, clean the tank cap and surroundings and make sure the cap is sealed!
NOTE:
Always premix the intended oil volume in half of the fuel volume to produce the fuel/oil mixture and then add
the remaining fuel volume. Shake the finished mixture well before filling the mixture into the auger.
It is not wise to add more engine oil than specified to ensure safe operation. This will only result in a higher
production of combustion residues which will pollute the environment and clog the exhaust channel in the
cylinder as well as the muffler. In addition, fuel consumption will rise and performance will decrease.
The storage of fuel
Fuels have a limited storage life. Fuel and fuel mixtures age through evaporation, especially at high
temperatures. Aged fuel and fuel mixtures can cause starting problems and damage the engine.Purchase
only that amount of fuel, which will be consumed over the next few months. At high temperatures, once fuel
has been mixed it should be used up in 6-8 weeks.
Store fuel only in proper containers, in dry, cool, secure locations!
Avoid skin and eye contact!
Mineral oil products degrease your skin. If your skin comes in contact with these substances repeatedly and
9
for an extended period of time, it will desiccate. Various skin diseases may result. In addition, allergic
reactions are known to occur.
Eyes can be irritated by contact with oil. If oil comes into your eyes, immediately wash them with clear water.
If your eyes are still irritated, see a doctor immediately!
Check fuel lines, fuel tank cap and fuel tank for leakages or tears.
Do not start the machine with such damage.
Do not refuel the machine when the motor is still hot or running.
Never refuel the machine close to an open flame.
Period of use:
Using the earth auger can lead to poor circulation in the fingers, hands or wrists. Symptoms such as pins
and needles, pain, stinging and changes in the skin can occur. If these symptoms occur, seek medical help.
Use appropriate gloves and take regular breaks.
Keep this safety information in a safe place.
Subject to technical changes!
Limit the noise and vibration to a minimum!
Only use appliances which are in perfect working order.
Service and clean the appliance regularly.
Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
Do not overload the appliance.
Have the appliance serviced whenever necessary.

Noise Information
10
Measured sound values determined according to 2000/24/EC
The noise figures quoted are emission levels and are not necessarily safe working levels. Whilst
there is a correlation between the emission and exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably to
determine whether or not further precautions are required. Factors that influence the actual level of
exposure of work-force include the characteristics of the work room, the other sources of noise, etc.
i.e. the number of machines and other adjacent processes, and the length of time for which an
operator is exposed to the noise. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country. This
information, however, will enable the user of the machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard
and risk.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to ISO 11806-1:
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with
a standardized test given in ISO 11806-1 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the
tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration
emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working
period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the
tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce
the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as:
maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns
Before operation
Assembly

Fuelling Fig. 2
Open the fuel tank cap .
Pour in the fuel mixture using a funnel.
Do not fill the tank completely as fuel expands.
Close the fuel tank cap tightly and clean the area from possibly spilled fuel mixture.
Fuel mixture
The auger‘s motor is a two-stroke motor. It is driven by a 50:1 (gasoline:oil) fuel mixture made up of
two-stroke oil and fuel. The fuel requires unleaded ordinary petrol with a research octane count of at least 91.
Lubrication of the motor takes place by adding premium two-stroke oil.
Do not mix the fuel mixture in the fuel tank. Use the mixing container supplied or another appropriate
container. Only pour the fuel mixture into the fuel tank after previously mixing and stirring it well.
12
Use fresh, clean fuel. Water and contaminants in the petrol damage the fuel system.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the motor not running. If the motor was in use directly prior to
refuelling, leave it to cool down first. Never refuel the machine in a building where the petrol fumes can reach
flames or sparks.
Petrol is highly flammable and explosive. When handling fuel, you may suffer burns or other severe
injuries.
Turn off the motor and keep away from heat, sparks and flames.
Only ever refuel outside.
Wipe up spilled petrol straight away.
