Important Safety Precautions

• The ice blades are very sharp. Use extreme caution
when drilling a hole or replacing the blades. Put the
blade guard on after each use.
• Always keep hands, feet, hair, drawstrings, scarves,
hats and loose clothing away from any moving parts
on the unit.
• Do not allow children to operate this unit. Do not
allow adults to operate the unit without proper
instruction.
• Do not operate any power equipment under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Keep all screws, nuts and bolts tight.

attempted.

before attempting to remove the unit manually.
• DO NOT use this product for other than its intended
purpose.
• DO NOT use attachments other than those available
from ION®.
• DO NOT alter this product in any manner; doing so is
dangerous and will void the warranty.

• This product produces considerable torque that is
felt by the operator. Make sure your feet are firmly
planted and that the handles are held firmly while
operating the auger.

release the operating trigger. Reposition your feet
and grip the handles tightly. Then squeeze operating
trigger and lift the unit gently.
• When drilling ice holes, do not push down on the unit.
If auger begins to drill slowly, blades may need to be
sharpened or replaced.
