• Radna oblast: Ensure the work area is clear of bystanders, especially children and pets. Check for underground cables, pipes, or other obstructions before drilling.
• Operacija: The earth auger is designed for two-person operation to maintain control and stability. Never operate the auger alone. Maintain a firm grip on both handles.
• Sigurnost motora: Never operate the engine indoors or in poorly ventilated areas due to carbon monoxide fumes. Allow the engine to cool before refueling or performing maintenance.
• Sprečavanje povratnog udara: Be prepared for sudden kickback if the auger bit strikes a hard object or gets jammed. Release the throttle immediately.

4.2 Miješanje goriva

The EB2000 is powered by a 2-stroke engine and requires a specific fuel mixture. Refer to the engine's label or manual for the exact ratio, typically 1:40 (2.5% oil) or 1:50 (2% oil) petrol to 2-stroke engine oil. Use fresh, unleaded petrol with an octane rating of 90 RON or higher and high-quality 2-stroke engine oil designed for air-cooled engines.

• Gorivo miješajte u zasebnoj, odobrenoj posudi za gorivo.
• Pour the correct amount of 2-stroke oil into the container, then add the petrol.
• Lagano protresite posudu kako biste osigurali temeljno miješanje.
• Fill the auger's fuel tank carefully, avoiding spills. Do not overfill.

5. Uputstvo za upotrebu

5.1 Pokretanje motora

1. Place the auger on a flat, stable surface.
2. Provjerite je li prekidač za paljenje u položaju 'UKLJUČENO'.
3. Set the choke lever to the 'CLOSED' (cold start) position.
4. Pritisnite pumpicu za gorivo nekoliko puta dok se gorivo ne vidi u povratnom vodu.
5. Čvrsto i glatko povucite uže za pokretanje dok se motor ne pokuša pokrenuti (obično 1-3 povlačenja).
6. Once the engine 'pops' or briefly starts, move the choke lever to the 'OPEN' position.
7. Ponovo povucite uže startera dok se motor ne pokrene i ne radi glatko.
8. Ostavite motor da se zagrije nekoliko trenutaka prije nego što dodate gas.

5.2 Tehnika bušenja

Figure 3: Proper two-person operation of the earth auger for stability and control.

• Always operate the auger with two people, each holding a handle firmly.
• Position the auger bit over the desired drilling location.
• Slowly increase the throttle to engage the auger bit.
• Apply steady, downward pressure as the auger drills into the soil. Avoid excessive force.
• Periodically lift the auger slightly to clear loose soil from the hole and prevent jamming.
• If the auger jams, immediately release the throttle and turn off the engine. Carefully remove the auger from the hole.

5.3 Zaustavljanje motora

Da biste zaustavili motor, jednostavno pomaknite prekidač za paljenje u položaj 'ISKLJUČENO'.

6. Održavanje

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your earth auger.

• čišćenje: After each use, clean the auger bit and power head of dirt and debris. Use a damp cloth for the engine housing.
• Filter zraka: Check and clean the air filter regularly, especially in dusty conditions. A dirty air filter can reduce engine performance.
• svjećica: Inspect the spark plug periodically. Clean or replace it if it is fouled or worn.
• Sistem goriva: Za dugotrajno skladištenje (preko 30 dana), ispraznite rezervoar za gorivo i pustite motor da radi dok se ne zaustavi kako biste očistili karburator od goriva. Ovo sprječava degradaciju goriva i stvaranje ljepila.
• svrdlo svrdla: Inspect the auger bit for wear or damage. Sharpen or replace as needed.
