SAFETY DECAL LOCATIONS
This unit comes equipped with all safety decals in place. They are designed to help you safely operate your
unit. Read and follow all safety decals.
OPERATING PROCEDURES
Before operating always ensure that the PRO-DIG
Drive and auger or anchor are connected correctly to the
parent machine.
DRILLING OPERATIONS
1. To begin drilling, position the auger or anchor on the
ground in the desired location. Engage the parent ma-
chines auxiliary hydraulics to rotate the auger or anchor
in a clockwise direction.
2. Lower the parent machines arm(s) to engage the auger
or anchor into the ground. Use only enough down pres-
sure to assure positive penetration of the auger. Ease up
on the down pressure if the auger rotation slows down
drastically or stalls. Excessive down pressure will cause
the auger to stall frequently.
Note: Do not continually stall the PRO-DIG
Auger
Drive! Continued stalling may cause excessive heat-
ing of the hydraulic system and possible damage to the
Auger Drive.
PRO-DIG
3. As the auger or anchor digs in the ground, the parent
machines arm(s) or boom may travel through an arc. This
means the operator may need to continually reposition
the machine to ensure vertical application of the auger or
anchor.
4. When the auger has penetrated the ground about 24"
(610mm), raise the auger from the hole to clean out the
loose material.
5. Once the required hole depth is reached, allow the auger
to turn a few seconds at this depth to clean the hole.
6. Stop rotation of the auger and raise the auger out of the
hole. Swing the auger away from the newly drilled hole.
Spin the loose material off the auger.
Note: Do not reverse the auger rotation while the au-
ger is still in the hole. The loose material will back fill
the hole.
7. If necessary, repeat steps 2 through 3 to obtain a cleaner
hole.

OPERATIONS TO AVOID
Auger
1. In some soil conditions or when excessive down pressure
is applied, the auger may screw itself in to the ground.
This can cause the auger to become stuck causing the
PRO-DIG
Auger Drive to stall. If this situation occurs,
reverse the auger rotation and slowly raise the auger
from the hole.
2. If the auger becomes lodged under rocks, tree roots,
or other large obstructions, do not attempt to raise the
auger out of the ground. See Step 1 of this section to
relieve the auger.
3. Avoid excessive side loading. This can cause damage to
both the PRO-DIG
Auger Drive and the auger.
4. Keep all auger teeth and pilot bits in good condition.
Avoid using damaged teeth and holders.
• Following operation, or when unhooking, stop, set
brakes, disengage power drives, shut off engine, and
remove the ignition key.
• Store the unit in and way from human activity.
• Before long term storage, wash the unit with mild
detergent and water to remove any debris and grime.
• Do not permit children to play on or around the
stored area.
• Protect the shafts and ports with a grease or rust-
inhibitor.
• Grease bearing seals.
• Check and tighten all bolts, nuts and screws. Paint is
available from your Authorized Service Dealer.
• When storing the unit for any length of time be sure
the unit is stored with clean gear oil.
