13.2 Remaining risk factors

Even if the machine is used as required it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual risk factors totally. The following hazards may arise in connection with the machine´s construction and design:ZIPPER MASCHINEN GmbH www.Zipper-Maschinen.at 22 ZI-ELB70 22 Risk of noise: Working for a long time can damage your hearing if you do not use a very good hearing protection. Risk to the hands or fingers: Access while it is working in the mowing apparatus. After the operation, the machine must cool down. Otherwise, there is an acute risk of scalding! Vibration: The declared vibration emission value has been for a standardized test is measured and can be used to compare one tool with another electric are. The declared vibration emission value may also be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

Emission level of vibration can be different from the specified value during the actual use of the electric tool, depending on the manner in which the power tool is used. When you feel uncomfortable or notice discoloration of skin on your hands during the use of the machine, stop working immediately. Observe sufficient break times to rest. Failure to have sufficient break times may result in a hand-arm vibration syndrome. The extent of exposure depending on the type of work or machine use should be estimated and appropriate breaks taken. In this way, the extent of exposure can be considerably reduced over the entire work time. Minimize the risk caused by vibrations. Maintain this machine according to the instructions in the manual. Risk of thrown out objects: When working with earth augers there is a danger that stones and other objects are thrown out with injury potential by drilling. The risk of injury can be reduced by wearing appropriate safety equipment but not entirely eliminated. Make sure that other people or animals are not staying within the danger area. Risks of working area: Ensure yourself that there are neither water or gas pipes nor electric lines installed underground in the working area. Risk of burns: Touching the mufflers, exhaust and other machine components which can be hot after prolonged continuous operation or when the engine is hot cause severe burns. Risk of fire and explosion: Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions. NEVER refuel fuel or engine oil while the machine is in operation or is hot. When refueling and at places where fuel is stored not smoke or allow open flames or sparks. Do not overfill the fuel tank and avoid the spillage of gasoline during refueling. If fuel is spilled make sure the area is completely dry and cleaned before starting the engine. Make sure that the filler cap is tightly closed again after refueling safely. Chemical risks: Never use or refuel a gasoline or diesel engine in a closed area without adequate ventilation. Carbon monoxide emissions from the internal drive units of the engine can cause in confined spaces through inhalation health effects and death. Therefore use the machine only in well-ventilated rooms or outdoors in operation. Liquid fuels can cause serious damage on the skin and the environment. Risk of kickback Through sudden blocking of the drill, it may, until the slip clutch begins to come to a sudden twist of the body. These risk factors can be minimized through obeying all security and operation instructions, proper machine maintenance, proficient and appropriate operation by persons with technical knowledge and experience. In spite of all safety is and remains her healthy common sense and their corresponding technical qualification / training for use of the machines most important safety factor!OPERATION ZIPPER MASCHINEN GmbH www.Zipper-Maschinen.at 23 ZI-ELB70 23 14 OPERATION Unpack the machine and check the machine for any transport damage and for completeness of delivery.

14.1 Operation instructions

NOTICE The machine is delivered pre-assembled, only the drill must be fitted before operation. If the rotating parts (drills) are mounted incorrectly, it can lead to serious accidents! Check before starting work the correct mounting of the drill. Mount the drill only with the supplied shear pin and split pin. Drill deeper holes within 2-3 working steps! Is the ground with many roots and / or stones keep extreme caution: Be especially careful that you do not meet an unexpected blocking of the drill by jamming in a root or a large stone unprepared. Before use check the earth auger to dust and dirt particles, particularly the engine cooling air inlet, carburetor and air filter. Clean if necessary. The first 10 hours of operation the machine shall not be operated but only at medium engine speed. Do not operate the engine at max. speed right from the start, as the engine itself as well as the gearing components need a running-in time. The engine itself reaches its max. capacity after the first 10 hours of operation. Non-compliance with this instruction reduces your engine lifespan substantially. To reduce the max. possible engine speed, turn the adjustment knob (H-5), so that the throttle lever (H-4) cannot be pushed entirely in

14.2.1 Mounting drill

To mount the drill (Fig. A) turn the aggregate upside down Put the drill to the drill adapter that you can plug the shear pin through the holes. Insert the shear pin (Fig. J;b) through the drill and drill adapter and secure the shear pin with the split pin. By using the drill extension bar (Fig. B) mount it like a drill and mount the drill like descripted above.

The machine is run by a gasoline (bezenefree engine fuel)-oil mixture. You need for the 2- Stroke engine a fuel mixture of 40:1.Ensure yourself that no particles get into the fuel tank when refueling. Use a filter. ZIPPER MASCHINEN strongly recommends the usage of HQ premixed fuels especially recommended for 2-stroke motors. Many of them keep their consistency even after long periods of storage. If you prefer to mix your own fuel please use HQ Synthetic Oil for 2-stroke engines. Synthetic oil reduces accumulation of soot on the spark plug, cylinder, engine cock and exhaust pipe. This increases the degree of lubrication and prolongs the engines lifespan.

HIN WEIS Shake fuel tank prior to every usage! During storage oil descents slowly in the fuel tank. If you start the engine under this condition, it has barely any lubrication which would lead to severe engine damage. No warrantyOPERATION ZIPPER MASCHINEN GmbH www.Zipper-Maschinen.at 24 ZI-ELB70 24

14.2.5 Stopping the engine

The engine can stopped any time (especially in danger) by releasing the throttle lever and put the switch (H-3) into STOP position. We recommend to first lift the drill out of the hole than release the throttle and then to put the switch (H-3) in position STOP. Wait until the drill stands still. Now you can put down the machine.

WARNING Stop the engine immediately in case of imminent danger!

• Remove loose objects lying around in the immediate working area. They might be winded up by the rotating drill and block it.

• Take a safe position and hold the auger firmly on both handles.

• Put the tip of the auger on the ground and start the process carefully and increase gradually the speed.

• Drill holes without exerting too much body weight on the auger. Allow the auger to advance by its own weight. If the auger drill is jammed in the soil and cannot be pulled out, stop the engine remove the aggregate, mount the manual crank and turn out the drill counterclockwise.MAINTENANCE ZIPPER MASCHINEN GmbH www.Zipper-Maschinen.at 25 ZI-ELB70 25 15 MAINTENANCE
