on these operating instructions When the symbol shown on the left is placed before a piece of text, this means that an impor- tant instruction follows. When the symbol shown on the left is placed before a piece of text, this means that an impor- tant warning follows pointing out a risk of injury to the user or damage to the device. -
Page 3: Single Gouge Auger Set For More Or Less Soft Soils
single gouge auger set for more or less soft soils The single gouge auger set for more or less soft soils (left-hand figure) consists of two regular single gouge augers (1, 2), a bent spatula (3) and a carrying bag (4). the set is suitable for use in softer soils such as peat, clay and sandy or disturbed soils. Both augers measure 110 cm;... -

the Edelman auger combination type. the Edelman auger body is conical in shape and consists of two blades (1) joined in a bit (2). the top of the blades is welded to a bracket (3), which is connected to the auger rod (4) (see figure). The blades are vaulted and when entering the soil the sample is dug up and evenly guided into the inside of the auger body. -

Page 7: Preparing For Use
Preparing for use single auger sets: Depending on the type of soil select an appropriate gouge auger (see 6. applications). Bi-partite auger sets: 1. Bayonets: Upon first use, detach the coupling sleeves from the extension rods and the upper part. 2. screw the handle into the upper part. 3. select an appropriate auger, depending on the type of soil (see 6. applications). 4. -
Page 8: The Use Of Gouge Augers
The use of gouge augers single gouge augers for more or less soft soils 1. Push the gouge auger vertically into the soil without rotating it. take a sample with a maximal length equal to the operational length of the auger. 2. -

always utilise the impact-absorbing steel hammer if force is necessary. This is safer and will prevent damage to the auger. avoid using standard metal hammers. This may cause damage to the auger and a bouncing hammer may lead to injuries. 3. - Page 10 This will allow you to easily drive the auger through the auger hole When a moderately cohesive layer precedes a cohesive layer, use an Edelman auger before augering. to allow working in a comfortable position, Eijkelkamp agrisearch Equipment also has 25- and 100-cm upper parts available.

3. cut off the sample and hoist the auger while gently rotating 4. to release the cohesive material hold the auger askew on the surface (see figure), rotate the auger 180° while press- ing it into the ground. the sample should detach itself and can be taken out by hand or by lightly tapping the auger. Moderately cohesive material will detach itself immediately. -

Page 14: Appendix: Rust On Augers And Gouges
appendix: rust on augers and gouges these augers and gouges are made of high tensile-strength forgeable iron-manganese steel. Both iron and man- ganese are non-toxic metals, abundant in the earth’s crust on which we live. natural concentrations are very high. During storage and transport some rust may develop on the bare metal surface. During first use this rust will scour off quickly. You may also scour with some wet sand prior to first use. The auger or gouge is then ready for sam- pling of soil on all metals like zinc, cadmium, chromium, copper and even iron and manganese!
