Cleaning And Maintenance - Scheppach EB2000 Traducción De Las Instrucciones Originales

• Ensure you have a safe position, during the drilling
process as well.
• Do not lean too far forwards when working.
• Check for a flawless idling mode. The auger must
not rotate in idling mode when the motor is warm.
• Immediately turn off the motor when you can feel
changes to the machine's behaviour.
• Do not place the hot auger in dry grass or on flam-
mable objects (fire risk!).
• Drill the hole in the ground in several sections so
you can remove the soil in between.
• Keep the auger vertical, do not twist it!
• Always secure bore holes, otherwise there is a risk
of injury!
• Exclusively drill holes in soil with the earth auger.
• Other applications are not permitted.
Starting the motor: (fig. 3)
• If the motor is cold, turn the choke lever (C) to the
position.
• If the motor is warm, turn the choke lever (C) to the
position.
• Prime the fuel pump (16) by pressing it several
times until you can see fuel in the pump.
• Put the stop switch (11) in the „start" position.
• Lightly pull on the starter cord (9) until you can feel
resistance, then pull on the cord strongly 2-3 times
until the motor fires briefly.
CAUTION!: Do not pull out the starter cable more
than approx. 50 cm, and lead it back by hand. For ef-
ficient starting, it is important to pull the starter cable
quickly and powerfully.
• Turn the choke lever (C) to
• Pull the starter cord 2-3 times again until the motor
fires and runs in idle mode.
• Warning! The earth auger only begins to rotate
when the throttle lever is used.
Stop the engine
Press the stop switch (11) in the 'Stop' position.
When restarting, first press the stop switch (11) back
to the 'Start' position.
Before starting the motor, check the following:
• Fuel level - the fuel tank should be at least half full
• Condition of the fuel lines
• Outer screw couplings for tight fit
• The earth auger has to be able to run freely
Operating
• Set the auger down and actuate the throttle con-
trol lever (13).
• Adjust the power according to the ground condi-
tions in order to be able to proceed ideally.
• If the ground condition is ideal, permitting a steady
work speed, using the adjusting screw, you can
lock the throttle control lever (13) (in the centre po-
sition) in order to make your work easier.

When leaving the auger, the motor must always
be turned off.

9. Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning
• We recommend that you clean the device immedi-
ately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of
the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into
the device.
Maintenance
For all work on the machine, the spark plug cap and
the spark plug have to be removed (high voltage).
Please adhere to the maintenance schedule.
Daily before beginning work
Check fuel tank and fuel lines for tightness.
Check mounting parts, exhaust cover, air filter cover,
oil, position of the auger and functioning of the oper-
ating elements.
After 20 operating hours
Clean air filter and check spark plug
After 100 operating hours
Clean fuel tank and replace spark plug.
Lubricate transmission.
After 300 operating hours
Replace air filter
Important notice in the event of repairs:
When sending earth augers to be repaired, please
note that, for safety reasons, they must be delivered
to the service station free from oil and petrol.
Warning!
No smoking and no open fire.
Risk of explosion.
Air filter (fig. 4 - 5)
Regular cleaning of the air filter prevents carburettor
malfunctions.
Cleaning the air filter and replacing the air filter insert:
• Loosen the screw (E) on the air filter casing (3), re-
move the air filter cover and check it.
• Replace the damaged element.
• Clean dirt from the inside of the filter casing with a
clean, damp cloth.
• Carefully remove the air filter insert (F) and check it
for damage, replace if required.
• Clean the foam filter insert (F) in warm water and
with a mild soap solution. Thoroughly rinse it with
clear water and leave it to dry.
