Optional Accessories; When Rotating The Auger Bit In Reverse - Makita DG001GM105 Betriebsanleitung

Digging operation
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly when operat-
ing the tool.
CAUTION:
When leaving the tool, such as
during a break, do not leave the tool stabbed in
the ground or lean it against a wall. Store the tool
in a stable condition.
NOTICE:
When the rotation speed comes down
extremely, reduce the load or stop the tool to
avoid the tool damage.
NOTICE:
Pressing excessively on the tool will
not speed up the digging. In fact, this excessive
pressure will only serve to damage the tip of the
auger bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten
the service life of the tool.
NOTICE:
Avoid digging in material that you
suspect contains hidden nails or other things that
may cause the auger bit to bind or break.
NOTICE:
If the tool is operated continuously
until the battery cartridge has depleted, allow the
tool to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding with
a fresh battery.
• Select the speed (high/low) properly depending on
the hole diameter and condition of the ground.
• When digging a deep hole or digging in clay soil,
do not try to dig at once. Dig the hole by lifting up
and down the tool so that the soil in the hole can
be discharged.
• If the rotation speed of the tool slows down due to
high load operation, lift the tool up little, and move
the tool up and down to dig in small steps.

When rotating the auger bit in reverse

A stuck auger bit can be removed simply by setting the
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back out.
When reversing, brace the tool by your body to prevent
a clockwise reaction.

CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly. The tool may
back out abruptly and cause an injury.
