After Each Use
• You must remove grass and mud from the
machine to prevent it from drying. This will
cause problems the next time the it is used.
• Wipe the machine down with a damp cloth.
• For larger build ups of debris, use a scraper
or similar product.
• Dry the machine completely to prevent rust
from forming.
• Make sure not to drip petrol onto the plastic
parts to prevent damaging them and remove
all traces of spilt petrol immediately. The
warranty will not cover damage to plastic
parts caused by petrol.
• Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic
parts. Most plastics are susceptible to
damage from various types of commercial
solvents and may be damaged by their use.

leakages or tears, do not start the machine with
such damage.

• Check the position of the auger and
functioning of the operating elements.
If you need to send your earth auger to be
repaired, please not that for safety reasons, it
must be delivered free from oil and petrol.
• Use a light silicone spray on exposed metal
parts to protect the metal.
