Symptom Explanation/Procedure
Post lodged in the
driver
1. Remove the 2 bolts that secure the adapter and separate the driver from the adapter.
2. Slide the adapter down the post to expose the top of the post. With the proper cutting tool for the type of post, cut
through the post below the ared portion.
3. Once the deformed portion is removed, slide the adapter off the post and reassemble it to the driver. Please follow
bolt tightening procedure.
Drives post slow
or sluggish
performance
1. Inspect the chuck to see if there is any foreign material blocking the piston.
2. Check to see if piston is moving freely by disconnecting the driver from air, tipping upside down and back upright.
You should be able to hear the piston moving freely.
3. Check to ensure the rate of lubrication is adequate.
4. If using a FRL, inspect the lter on the FRL, if impacted with residue replace with new lter.
5. Inspect the lter on the Throttle. If clogged, blow off debris with air hose, or clean with a common cleaning solvent.
6. Check to see if air pressure is correct
7. Check output on compressor
8. In temperatures under 40ºF (4ºC) or high humidity conditions check air lines and tool for icing.
Noticeable air passing
through driver or
“blow by”
To conrm this condition exists, connected to air source, place driver on a post, while activating the throttle lift the
driver slightly if the piston increases in activity blow by is conrmed. This indicates there is most likely damaged or
worn parts inside the driver. In this event the driver should be sent to Rhino Tool Company to be inspected and we
will report if the driver is repairable.

The Rhino®PD-110, PD-140, and PD-200 Post Drivers are
designed to drive many types of post and other like items into the
ground. (See Chart on left) Uses, other than those intended, can
result in injury to the operator, others near by, or damage to the
driver and to the surrounding area may result as well.
This post driver is intended for use by professional installers.
Never allow untrained personnel or children to operate this tool.
Most accidents can be prevented if you follow all instructions in
this manual and on the post driver. The most common hazards
are described in the following text, along with the best method
to protect yourself and others. If you or any operator doesn’t
understand any of the instructions, call Rhino at (309) 853-
5555 or toll free 866-707-1808. In Europe contact Eurogate Int.
(0031) (0) 523 638286 or (0031) (0) 610 502607. It is VERY
IMPORTANT to understand that your driver is a very powerful
machine.
AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH,
READ BEFORE USING YOUR POST
DRIVER!
UNDERGROUND UTILITIES: Be
absolutely sure you know location of all
underground utilities before driving so you
can avoid hitting them while driving a post into the ground.
Utilities include but are not limited to Electric, Gas, Telephone,
Water, Sewer, TV Cable, Lawn Sprinklers, Etc. Hitting an
underground utility could be EXTREMELY DANGEROUS for
the operator and others.
AIR PRESSURE: It is strongly
recommended that you use a Filter-
Regulator-Lubricator combination with your
Rhino Air Operated Post Driver. The use of the pressure regulator
is required for safety. Set the pressure regulator at 100 PSI (7 kg/
cm2). Higher air pressures will not make your driver perform
better. High air pressure could cause your post driver to lift o
and fall from the post causing serious injury or death. DO NOT
tie down the throttle valve so it will not shut o when released.
If the throttle valve does not stop the unit immediately when
released, repair or replace it. Slowly squeeze the air throttle
valve lever to start the driver. Opening the throttle valve slowly
will prevent a violent start of the driver. Never use anything to
keep the throttle valve lever in the open position other than the
operator’s hand. For safety, the valve must close, stopping the
drive, when the operator releases the valve lever.
CHUCK SIZING: A chuck or chuck adapter
that is too large for the post being driven
may contribute to a condition which would
allow the post driver to fall from the post causing serious injury
or death. Do not use a chuck or chuck adapter that is too large
for the post being driven. The post should be loose in the chuck

or chuck adapter with a minimum of 1/8"(3 mm) clearance and
not over 5/8"(15.9 mm) clearance. The post driver piston should
hit the post as squarely as possible. If the t is too loose, damage
may be caused to the driver, chuck, or chuck adapter causing
them to fail. Chucks and chuck adapters wear out and should be
replaced as needed. Inspect your post driver’s chuck and chuck
adapters frequently. If you are in doubt, return your chuck, chuck
adapter, or any other part to the factory, freight prepaid, for a free
inspection.
SAFETY EQUIPMENT: Always wear the
proper safety equipment when operating the
post driver. This includes hard hat, safety glasses, safety shoes,
ear protection, back supports, anti-vibration gloves, and any other
safety equipment for the operator and other personnel near the
driver as advised by, ANSI, NIOSH, OSHA, or any other safety
regulatory agency, or the employer or the owner of this post
driver.
SAFETY CHECKS: Check your driver daily
for loose bolts, cracks, bulges or abnormalities
in welds, castings, chuck or chuck adapters, top cover, piston,
air line, or any other part. Do not repair any parts. Immediately
replace excessively worn or defective parts with new parts. Do
not run the unit with damaged or defective parts. If you are in
doubt, return your driver, chuck, chuck adapter, or any other part
to the factory, freight prepaid, for a free inspection.
REMEMBER ALWAYS PUT SAFETY
FIRST! Do not operate the post driver if any
unsafe conditions are present.
Do not put anything but a post into the chuck
on your driver.
Do not operate your post driver unless it is on
a post to be driven. Operation of the driver
without it driving on a post could damage it.
WARNING LABELS: If your post driver’s warning label is
marred or destroyed, replace it immediately. Simply call Rhino
Tool Company and we will send you a new warning label at no
charge.
LUBRICATION: YOU MUST OIL YOUR POST DRIVER
WHILE IT IS OPERATING. If you are using a Rhino® Filter-
Regulator-Lubricator, set the lubricator on your FRL in the air
line to the post driver so it will deliver approximately 10 drops of
oil per minute. Preferably the Filter-Regulator-Lubricator should
not be separated from the driver by more than 25 ft (7.62 m)
of hose. Make certain that any new air hose between the Filter-
Regulator-Lubricator and the post driver has been thoroughly
lubricated. The procedure for lubricating the hose is as follows:
Remove the air hose from your post driver and AFTER SECUR-
ING THE AIR LINE SO IT CAN’T WHIP AROUND TO
INJURE SOMEONE, open the lubricator wide open so that a

steady stream of oil will run into the air stream when the throttle
valve has been activated. Actuate the air throttle valve and run
the air through your hose until an oil lm is noticeably coming
out of the air hose where it connects to the driver. Periodically
check to make sure your driver is receiving oil. Air and oil will be
exhausted through the chuck. If in doubt, remove the air line from
the driver and using the same procedures stated previously check
to see if an oil lm is being exhausted from the hose end that con-
nects to the driver. If oil is coming out of the hose, reconnect the
air hose to the driver.
Use SAE 5 wt. oil in cold weather, SAE 10 wt. oil for mild
weather up to 80°F (27° C) and SAE 20 wt. oil for hot weather.
We recommend non-detergent oil to prevent degradation of the
air hose. Do not use synthetic oil as it impedes atomization of the
oil in the airstream.
AIR SUPPLY: You must have an adequate supply of clean air
at the proper pressure. Air supplied to your post driver must be
ltered. Drain water from the air compressor air tank prior to use.
It is recommended that you use a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator to
help remove water, rust and other particulate from the air supply.
It will greatly increase the life of your post driver and decrease
maintenance costs.
AIR REQUIREMENTS
PD-110 and PD-140: 64 CFM (1.81 m3/min.) @ 100 PSI (7 kg/
cm2 @ 6.9 Bar). PD-200: 72 CFM (2.04 m3/min.) @ 100 PSI (7
kg/cm2 @ 6.9 Bar)
AIR HOSE: It is recommended that you use a 3/4"(19.05 mm)
double braid air hose with an oil resistant lining to supply air to
your post driver.
