GroundDrill-15 HERCULES

FUEL

1. Remove the fuel tank cap and check fuel lever. If necessary add some fuel.

2. Use only motor gasoline (with a minimum of 92 octane or unleaded or low leaded gasoline).

Never use mixture of oil-fuel or sour gasoline. Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

STARTING ENGINE

1. Close the air shutter. Turn the choke valve switch to the START position. Attention: If the engine is very hot or the temperature is

high, do not close the choke valve.

2. Start the engine: turn the engine switch to the I position, slowly pull the handle until there is sensation of resistance, and then pull

quickly and strongly.

Attention: Don’t loosen the handle suddenly in order to avoid rebounding and hitting the engine. You should replace it along the direc-

tion of resilience force of starting. Place the air shutter into the WORK position after the engine warm-up.

6. Operation

Caution: Ground drill is designed for the operation with 1 (density 600...1600 kg/m3) and 2 ( density 1600... 1900 kg/m3) classes of

soil. Continuous working time of the ground drill with 1 class of soil (sand, clay sand, vegetable soil, peat) doesn’t exceed 5 min. Con-

tinuous working time of the ground drill with 2 class of soil (light loam, sand with crushed stone) is no more than 3 min. Recommended

interval between continuous usage is no less than 15 min with full stoppage of the engine. It’s forbidden to decline the ground drill from

the axis of drilling more than 3°. Excessive deviation can lead to the breakage of the gear case parts.

Never try to drill the hole on full depth of the auger bit. Drill step-by-step.

Excessive pressure on the ground drill can lead to the breakage of the gear case, overheating of the engine and its breakdown. Deep

the auger drill on 20-30 cm and raise it slightly in the hole. Remove earth from the auger bit. Don’t take out the whole rotating auger

bit from the hole. It can lead to the injury. Don’t speed up if the auger bit is jammed in the ground. It can lead to the breakage of the

gear-wheel of the gear case and the parts of the engine. Slow down the engine and disconnect it from the auger bit. Set the pivot of

appropriate diameter into the hole of pin – release the auger bit turning it back.

1. Let engine warm for at least 1 min.
