In some field conditions it may be necessary to drive soil anchors into the soil to obtain
adequate depth with probe or core sampler. If this is the case, you will need PN 40209
Anchoring Package.
Installation and Removal
-
Retract probe until is in the most forward position.
-
Side shift to the far right and lower foot.
-
Place anchor in center of foot opening and lower probe drive until hex enters hex
drive on probe. (Figure 16)
-
Drive in slowly using Probe and Rotation controls. Apply adequate force to push
as you rotate. If you rotate too rapidly, the anchor will simply auger a hole, and
will not anchor properly --- Drive in until all flighting is below ground level and
probe is at bottom of stroke.
-
Raise foot, side shift to far left, and repeat this process. (Figure 17)
