LOCAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
Enter any local safety regulations here. Keep these instructions in an area accessible to the operator and maintenance personnel.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Tool operators and maintenance personnel must always comply with the safety precautions given in this manual and on the stickers and tags attached to the tool and
hose.
These safety precautions are given for your safety. Review them carefully before
operating the tool and before performing general maintenance or repairs.
Supervising personnel should develop additional precautions relating to the specifi c
work area and local safety regulations. If so, place the added precautions in the
space provided on page 5.
The EA08 Hydraulic Earth Auger will provide safe and dependable service if operated
in accordance with the instructions given in this manual. Read and understand this
manual and any stickers and tags attached to the tool and hoses before operation.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
• Operator must start in a work area without bystanders. The operator must be familiar with all prohibited work areas such
as excessive slopes and dangerous terrain conditions.
• Establish a training program for all operators to ensure safe operation.
• Do not operate the tool unless thoroughly trained or under the supervision of an instructor.
• Always wear safety equipment such as goggles, head protection, and safety shoes at all times when operating the tool.
• Do not inspect or clean the tool while the hydraulic power source is connected. Accidental engagement of the tool can
cause serious injury.
• Do not operate the earth auger without fi rst installing the torque tube.
• Do not install or remove an auger while the hydraulic power source is connected. Accidental engagement of the tool can
cause serious injury.
• Never operate the earth auger if you cannot be sure that underground utilities are not present. Underground electrical
utilities present an electrocution hazard. Underground gas utilities present an explosion hazard. Other underground utilities may present other hazards.
• Do not wear loose fi tting clothing when operating the earth auger. Loose fi tting clothing can get entangled with the earth
auger and cause serious injury.
• Always operate the earth auger at full throttle. Operating the earth auger with the trigger slightly depressed raises the
hydraulic pressure which increases torque output. This type of operation can result in unexpected "kickback".
• Do not remove the earth auger from a hole until it has completely stopped turning.
• Supply hoses must have a minimum working pressure rating of 2500 psi/175 bar.
• Be sure all hose connections are tight.
• The hydraulic circuit control valve must be in the "OFF" position when coupling or uncoupling the tool. Wipe all couplers
clean before connecting. Failure to do so may result in damage to the quick couplers and cause overheating of the hydraulic system. Use only lint-free cloths.

Page 7
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not operate the tool at oil temperatures above 140°F/60°C. Operation at higher oil temperatures can cause operator
discomfort and may damage the tool.
• Do not operate a damaged, improperly adjusted, or incompletely assembled tool.
• To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, all tool repair, maintenance and service must only be performed by authorized and properly trained personnel.
• Do not exceed the rated limits of the tool or use the tool for applications beyond its design capacity.
• Always keep critical tool markings, such as lables and warning stickers legible.
• Always replace parts with replacement parts recommended by Stanley Hydraulic Tools.
• Check fastener tightness often and before each use daily.

OPERATION
PREOPERATION
PROCEDURES
PREPARATION FOR INITIAL USE
The handles & torque tube, which are shipped un-attached, must be connected to the tool prior to opearation.
An optional auger bit must also be connected to the tool for
proper operation. Inspect the tool to assure the tool was
not damaged in shipping and does not contain packing
debris.
CHECK HYDRAULIC POWER SOURCE
1. Using a calibrated fl owmeter and pressure gauge, check
that the hydraulic power source develops a fl ow of 4-9
gpm/15-34 lpm at 2000 psi/140 bar.
2. Make certain the hydraulic power source is equipped
with a relief valve set to open at 2100-2250 psi/145-155 bar
minimum.
3. Check that the hydraulic circuit matches the tool for
open-center (OC) operation.
INSTALL HANDLES
Refer to the assembly instructions provided with the tool.
shank augers for the model EA08101A and standard 1-3/8
inch female hex socket for the model EA08102A.
TO INSTALL AN AUGER TO THE MODEL EA08101A
Align the button on the auger chuck with the hole in the
coupler (15). Slide the auger chuck into the coupler until the
button seats in the hole. See fi gure 1.
Figure 1. Installing Auger to model EA08101A
TO INSTALL AN AUGER TO THE MODEL EA08102A
Align the hole on the auger chuck with the hole in the coupler (15). Slide the auger chuck into the coupler. Secure it
using a 3/8 inch long bolt and a nut. See fi gure 2.
1.Install the handles (1) and fasteners (2). Tighten each
fastener to 40 ft. lbs./54 Nm.
CHECK TOOL
1. Make sure all tool accessories are correctly installed.
Failure to install tool accessories properly can result in
damage to the tool or personal injury.
2. There should be no signs of leaks.
3. The tool should be clean, with all fi ttings and fasteners
tight.
CHECK TRIGGER MECHANISM
1. Check that the trigger operates smoothly and is free to
travel between the "ON"- "OFF"-"ON" positions.
INSTALL AUGER BIT
The EA08 Earth Auger accepts standard 1-1/4 inch square
Figure 2. Installing Auger to model EA08102A
INSTALL TORQUE TUBE
1. The torque tube is attached to the base as shown in fi gure 3. Be sure to use the cotterless clevis pin provided with
the unit. Make sure the pin is pushed through both holes in
the base.
11
Page 12
OPERATION
2. The opposite end of the tube can be connected to a solid
object, such as the Stanley hydraulic power unit, a trailer
hitch ball, ground stake, etc.
Figure 3. Installing Torque Tube
CONNECT HOSES
1. Wipe all hose couplers with a clean lint-free cloth before
making connections.
2. Connect the hoses from the hydraulic power source to
the hose couplers on the tool. It is a good practice to connect the return hose fi rst and disconnect it last to minimize
or avoid trapped pressure within the tool.
3. Observe fl ow indicators stamped on hose couplers to be
sure that oil will fl ow in the proper direction. The female
coupler is the inlet coupler.
NOTE:
The pressure increase in uncoupled hoses left in the sun
may result in making them diffi cult to connect. When
possible, connect the free ends of operating hoses together.
3. Position yourself so that you are able to operate the ON/
OFF trigger with your right hand. Grasp each handle fi rmly.
Your helper positions himself/herself directly opposite and
facing you and grasping each handle fi rmly.
4. Lift the EA08, with auger attached, and position the
auger so it is perpendicular to where you intend to dig. The
auger should be just above (not touching) the ground.
5. With your feet, and your helper's feet, spread and fi rmly
planted, squeeze the ON/OFF trigger fully to start the auger
turning.
6. Lower the EA08 until the auger starts digging. With soft
soil the auger will penetrate into the ground with little effort
and may require you to apply a slight lift to the EA08. With
hard soil the auger cannot penetrate the ground easily and
may require you to apply some down pressure to the EA08.
Try not to apply enough down pressure to stall the auger.
Augering in different soils requires different techniques and
practice to become profi cient.
7. After reaching the desired depth, lift the auger straight
out of the hole. Always release the ON/OFF trigger before
the tip of the auger reaches the top of the hole.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the tool is to be used during cold weather, preheat the hydraulic fl uid at low engine speed. When using the normally
recommended fl uids, fl uid temperature should be at or
above 50° F/10° C (400 ssu/82 centistokes) before use.
OPERATING PROCEDURES
1. Observe all safety precautions.
2. Make sure the torque tube is attached to the base of the
EA08 and anchored to a solid object.
NOTE:
It is recommended to always use the torque tube.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If symptoms of poor performance develop, the following chart can be used as a guide to correct the problem.
When diagnosing faults in operation of the tool, always check that the hydraulic power source is supplying the correct
hydraulic fl ow and pressure to the tool as listed in the table. Use a fl owmeter known to be accurate. Check the fl ow with
the hydraulic oil temperature at least 80°F/27°C.
SYMPTOM CAUSE SOLUTION
Check power unit for proper fl ow and
Earth Auger does not run.
Poor Earth Auger performance.
Earth Auger operates slow.
