through the Auxiliary Hydraulic
(Attachment) Circuit via two Quick
Release Couplers normally located

near the end of the Loader arms,
Excavator Dipper or Truck Crane
Booms etc.

CAUTION: Alert yourself to the weight(s) of the PENGO product(s) Refer Pg 4

You operate. Do not exceed your machine operating weight

or lifting capacity. (Refer to your machine manual)

Ensure your machines Flow & Pressures do not exceed the maximum rated Flow & Pressures
of the PENGO Earth Auger Drive Unit. (Refer Pg 2 To the Purchaser)

Mounting Frames are attached to
the Bucket Attaching Points on

Loader arms and Excavators. On
Truck Cranes a Linkage is normally
located between the Hook Pin and the

PENGO Earth Auger Drive Unit.

(1) Fit Mounting Frame (Refer Above)
(2) Fit PENGO Earth Auger Drive Unit using Bail and Pins.
(3) Hook up hoses to Auxiliary Hydraulic Circuit. ENGINE MUST BE SHUT OFF.
(4) Check that the drilling rotation on PENGO Earth Auger Drive Unit is clockwise.

NOTE: Two-way ow is required for anticlockwise rotation.

(5) To assure optimum Hydraulic Motor life, run new PENGO Earth Auger Drive Unit for one

hour on approx. 1/3rd RPM before application of full load.

(6) Fit Auger. (See Fig 4) Use only genuine PENGO Auger Pin and Spring Clip.

REMOVAL PROCEDURE: Reversal of Set up Instructions.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 6

Before operating, always ensure that the PENGO Earth Auger Drive Unit and Auger are tted
correctly to the parent machine. (Refer to Set up Instructions Pg 5).

CAUTION: Do not operate on excessive slopes, embankments or near edges of excavations.

When travelling or manoeuvring Parent Machine to the required drilling area, reduce ground speed

to prevent the Earth Auger Drive Unit and Auger from swinging.

NOTE: Some mounting Frames are tted with a support
bracket. When tted ensure support bracket locates the
Earth Auger Drive Unit and Auger during travelling or
manoeuvring (See Photo, Typical for Skid Steer Loaders)

To commence drilling, locate Auger Pilot (on pre marked spot)
and engage machine auxiliary lever to rotate the Auger in a

clockwise direction.

Lower the machine arm(s) to push the Auger into the ground. The harder the ground the more down

pressure you will need.

NOTE: Do not continually stall the Earth Auger Drive Unit. Continual stalling may cause excessive

heating of the hydraulic system.

As the Auger digs into the ground , the machine arm(s) may travel through an arc. You may therefore
have to continually reposition the Earth Auger Drive Unit or Parent machine to drill vertically.

Do not drill the Auger deep into the ground in one operation. Continually clearing the hole during

drilling will facilitate a faster and easier operation.

NOTE: Extension shafts are available for extra depth.

Disengage machine auxiliary lever and rest Earth Auger Drive Unit and Auger on the ground before
making any adjustments or leaving the Parent Machine.
