1. Introduction
Power auger Ground Drill 14 is used for work with two operators. During operation seizure of the auger may occur and the equip ment
may rotate in reverse - that’s why both operators must be very careful during operation and know and follow all precautions and possi-
ble risks. Return stroke is partly reduced by the power auger structure. You should know how to use the instrument to avoid damages.
Options can be changed by the manufacturer without notice.
2. Precautions
Wear a long-sleeved shirt and long pants closed at the cuff.
Do not wear neck-tie or other loosely danging garments. Such articles may become entangled in the drill when working.
Wear protective goggles.
Wear helmet when working.
Wear work shoes equipped with no-slip tread.
Wear ear plugs to protect the ear drum from noise.
Do not work for long periods of time in summer and winter. Take breaks frequently.
Do not use the auger in the rain. The possibility of your slipping is increased when the ground is wet.
Do not use the auger indoors or in poorly ventilated places.
Do not smoke in the vicinity of the auger. This equipment runs on gasoline. Keep the equipment from ames and sparks.
Do not remove the gas cap or refuel while the engine is running or hot.
Wipe the auger body of any spilled gasoline after refueling.
Store fuel in approved containers and keep in a cool place.
CHECK BEFORE START-UP
Check all bolts and nuts are securely tight. Tighten where necessary.
Check the cutting blades to avoid chipping, cracking or bending. NEVER use a drill when damaged.

5. Preparation before operation
Handles must be placed on the frame in the following way: handle with gas handle must be located on the right side of the starter handle.
Place the screws into the holes of handles and frame. Fix them with nuts. Tighten the screws with the instrument from the complete set.
CONNECTION OF THE THROTTLE CABLE
Connect the throttle cable to the throttle level.
CONNECTION OF THE AUGER TO THE REDUCTION GEAR
Special construction of the reduction gear shaft allows to set augers with different diameters: 32 mm and 20 mm. Combine drive shaft
and shank end. Insert the shaft into the shank end. Fix the connection with the help of screw.
AUGER CHECKUP
1. Check availability of all parts. This goes especially for the spark plug.
2. Check the air intake and outlet for clogging.
3. The auger uses an air-cooled engine. If the air passage is blocked, the engine may overheat.
4. Check the air lter for dirt. A dirty air cleaner will cause the auger to burn excess fuel.

THE LEVEL OF OIL IN THE ENGINE
Caution: Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life. Use detergent
oil. It’s not recommended to use vegetable-based uid. Check the engine oil level
with the engine stopped and in a level position.
Note: SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Use oil SAE Synthetic 5W-
30 when the average temperature in your area is within the recom mended range.
Check the engine with the engine stopped and in a level position.
1.Remove the oil ller cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
2. Insert the oil ller cap/dipstick into the oil ller neck as shown, but do not screw
it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
3. Add the oil. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the dipstick.
Note: The Lubricating oil alarm system is used to prevent engine damage due to the
lack of lubricating oil in the crankcase. When the lubricating level of crankcase is
lower than the safety line, the alarm system will shut down the engine automatical-
ly (The engine switch is still in the ON position). If engine can’t start after stopping,
before check other problems, rst check the machine oil level.
THE LEVEL OF OIL IN THE GEAR CASE (for the model GD-14)
Check the level of the oil before running the engine. Check it via monitoring win-
dow. If the level is lower that required, remove the cap of the gear case ller neck
and add oil up to the red dot in the window (as shown in the picture). API GL-4/5
(Volume ~0.7 l. ) is recommended for general use.

FUEL
1. Remove the fuel tank cap and check fuel lever. If necessary add some fuel.
2. Use only motor gasoline (with a minimum of 92 octane or unleaded or low leaded gasoline).
Never use mixture of oil-fuel or sour gasoline. Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
STARTING ENGINE
1. Turn main switch to ON.
2. Turn the choke valve switch to the OFF position. Attention: If the engine is very hot or the temperature is high, do not close the
choke valve.
3. Start the engine: turn the engine switch to the ON position, slowly pull the handle until there is sensation of resistance, and then
pull quickly and strongly.
Attention: Don’t loosen the handle suddenly in order to avoid rebounding and hitting the engine. You should replace it along the
direction of resilience force of starting.
6. Operation
Caution: Ground drill is designed for the operation with 1 (density 600...1600 kg/m3) and 2 ( density 1600... 1900 kg/m3) classes of
soil. Continuous working time of the ground drill with 1 class of soil (sand, clay sand, vegetable soil, peat) doesn’t exceed 5 min. Con-
tinuous working time of the ground drill with 2 class of soil (light loam, sand with crushed stone) is no more than 3 min. Recommended
interval between continuous usage is no less than 15 min with full stoppage of the engine. It’s forbidden to decline the ground drill from
the axis of drilling more than 3°. Excessive deviation can lead to the breakage of the gear case parts.
Never try to drill the hole on full depth of the auger bit. Drill step-by-step.
Excessive pressure on the ground drill can lead to the breakage of the gear case, overheating of the engine and its breakdown. Deep
the auger drill on 20-30 cm and raise it slightly in the hole. Remove earth from the auger bit. Don’t take out the whole rotating auger
bit from the hole. It can lead to the injury. Don’t speed up if the auger bit is jammed in the ground. It can lead to the breakage of the
gear-wheel of the gear case and the parts of the engine. Slow down the engine and disconnect it from the auger bit. Set the pivot of
appropriate diameter into the hole of pin – release the auger bit turning it back.

1. Let engine warm for at least 1 min.
2. Press or release throttle lever to get desired rpms. If the engine reduce rpms on load, adjust the position of throttle lever.
Important! Do not work without workmate. Otherwise it can lead to the damages. Avoid running at high rpms for long periods. The
unit needs time for lubricant to get to all internal parts. Do not run the motor at high rpms without load.
THE SELECTION OF THE GEAR CASE ROTATION DIRECTION (for the model GD-14 Reverse)
The gear case of ADA GD-14 Reverse allows to change the rotation direction. Use the reverse function when drilling with auger bit of
big diameter from 300 mm and complicated grounds. Release gas handle when the auger bit is fully dipped into the earth. Then it is
necessary to stop drilling. Change the direction of rotation. Shift the handle for the reverse operation into the extreme position from the
engine. Press gas handle. At that slowly move the ground drill up. Use the reverse function for getting the auger bit out from the earth.
Never use the reverse function for drilling. Reverse handle must be in the extreme position towards the engine when drilling.
7. Stopping
1. Release throttle to idle speed.
2. Move main switch on/off to OFF.
Note: When storing for long periods, remove all fuel from the gas tank. Do not leave the gas tank at an angle. The pressure inside the
tank can cause the gas to spill out. The working parts of the engine can get very hot.
8. Daily maintenance
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. To prevent accidental engine start disconnect spark plug cap.
Note: Check and adjust regularly the engine if you want to achieve high performance of it. Regularly maintenance extends engine life.
In the table below there is a maintenance schedule with regular service periods.

MAINTENANCE OF AIR FILTER
A dirty air lter will restrict air ow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas, clean
the air lter more often than specied in the maintenance schedule.
a) Unscrew y-nut and remove the air lter cap. Detach the element;
b) Rinse the detail in the non-ammable solvent. Let it dry out.
c) Dip the detail into the clean engine oil to soak. Squeeze excessive oil. Otherwise the engine will smoke for some time when starting it.
d) Put the detail on its place.
Caution: Never use gasoline or other dissolvents to clean air lter. Ignition could result. Operating the engine without an air lter, or with
a damaged air lter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
FUEL FILTER CLEANING
Caution: Gasoline and its vapors are extremely ammable and explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death. Don’t smoke
on the worksite. Keep gasoline away from sparks, open ames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
1. Remove fuel lter and fuel line.
2. Clean fuel lter (remove dirt from the grid of the lter and check the grid for damages).
SPARK PLUG SERVICE
Recommended spark plugs: F7RTC or other equivalents.
Caution: An incorrect spark plug can cause engine damage. Install spark plug with correct electrode gap. Avoid thing coating on it.
1. Remove the spark plug with a spark plug wrench.
Caution: Mufer is very hot during engine running. Be careful, don’t touch it until it gets cold.
2. Inspect the spark plug.
3. Replace it if the electrodes are worn, or if the insulator is cracked or chipped.

4. Measure the spark plug electrode gap with a suitable gauge. The gap should be 0.70 - 0.80 mm. Correct the gap, if necessary, by care-
fully bending the side electrode.
5. Install the spark plug carefully, by hand, to avoid cross-threading. Tighten the spark plug with a spark plug wrench.
Note: If installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the spark plug seats. If reinstalling the used spark plug, tighten 1/8 - 1/4 turn
after the spark plug seats.
Caution: A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine. Over tightening the spark plug can damage the threads in the cylinder head.
GEAR CASE SERVISE
For the model GD-14
Change the oil in the gear case every 100 hours of operation. Drain the oil from the gear case through the drain plug.
Do not drain oil on the ground.
For the model GD-14 Reverse
Add lubricating oil into the gear case and the mechanism of reverse operation every 100 h. Add 0.2-0.25 kg of lubricating oil of high
quality for the power transmission.
Add lubricating oil through the plug that is located on the reverse mechanism and on the gear case housing.
9. Long term storage
When storing for more than a month:
1. Remove a fuel from tank.
2. Run engine until it runs out of fuel.
3. Clean the inside of fuel tank and fuel lter with clean gasoline.
4. Remove the spark plug and put small amount of clean motor oil in the spark plug oil.
5. Pull the starter about 2 or 3 times, then stop pulling when the piston is at the top. Replace the plug.
6. Clean the external part of the motor with a cloth soaked in oil.
7. Store the motor in a dry place away from re and heat.
