Assembly
Open the shipping carton immediately upon receipt.
Visually inspect the contents of the carton for freight
d
amage and/or missing parts. If shipping damage is
evident, contact the delivering carrier immediately to
arrange for an inspection of the damage by their claims
representative. Federal law requires that a claim be
filed within a specified time period. If missing parts are
detected, notify your dealer who will assist you in
obtaining them.
Included in the shipment should be the following:
1 each, engine/handle/transmission assembly.
1 each, bottle of engine oil.
1 each, bag containing the Operator Manual and other
publications.
The Hole Digger is shipped from the factory completely
assembled. The transmission is lubricated at the
factory and will not require further servicing prior to the
initial usage. Visually inspect the throttle control,
throttle cable assembly and the carburetor for signs of
damage. Rotate the throttle control to determine that
the spring mechanism allows the throttle lever of the
carburetor to travel from its low speed to the high
speed and back position without any restriction and/or
binding.
DETERMINE THAT ALL COMPONENTS OF THE
ENGINE THROTTLE CONTROL ASSEMBLY ALLOW
FOR PROPER FUNCTION. THE THROTTLE LEVER
OF THE CARBURETOR MUST RETURN THE
ENGINE TO THE IDLE SPEED AS STATED IN THE
SPECIFICATION SECTION OF THIS MANUAL
WHEN THE TWIST GRIP THROTTLE IS RELEASED
BY THE OPERATOR. IF THIS DOES NOT OCCUR,
CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR THE CUSTOMER
SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR SPECIFIC
INFORMATION RELATIVE TO CORRECTING THIS
OCCURANCE. DO NOT OPERATE THE HOLE
DIGGER UNTIL THIS OCCURANCE HAS BEEN
CORRECTED. AN IMPROPERLY FUNCTIONING
THROTTLE CONTROL CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
Check all fasteners for security. Consult a fastener
torque chart for the proper torque value if any fastener
is found to require retorquing.
Before Starting the Engine
FILLING THE ENGINE GASOLINE TANK.
T
ools Required:
1 each, small, clean funnel.
The 240 Hole Digger utilizes an all-position, Four
Stroke, gasoline engine. While this engine may
have the same physical appearance of a
conventional Two Stroke engine, the lubrication
systems are completely different. The Subaru
EH035 engine does not require oil to be mixed with
gasoline. The crankcase oil does not function as a
reservoir for an oil injection system.
1) Carefully clean the filler cap and surrounding area to
insure that no dirt or debris falls into the gasoline tank.
2) Fill the fuel tank with fresh, clean, unleaded
automotive gasoline. Leaded "regular" grade gasoline
is an acceptable substitute. DO NOT USE GASOLINE
CONTAINING METHANOL (WOOD ALCOHOL).
Gasoline containing a maximum of 10 per cent ethanol
or grain alcohol (sometimes referred to as Gasohol)
may be used but requires special care when the engine
is stored for extended periods.
3) Use of a properly blended gasoline for operation
during the intended season will result in easier engine
starting. Do not use gasoline left over from the previous
season of operation.
4) Never fill the fuel tank completely full. Instead, fill the
fuel tank to within 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the top of the tank
to provide space for fuel expansion. Always wipe any
fuel spillage from the engine and the Hole Digger
before starting the engine.
DO NOT SMOKE NEAR THE GASOLINE TANK. DO
NOT FILL THE GASOLINE TANK WITH THE
ENGINE RUNNING OR IF IT IS HOT. ALLOW AMPLE
TIME BETWEEN EACH REFUELING FOR THE
ENGINE TO COOL.
