Like you, I pulled many times and could not get it to start. Then I saw you made an adjustment at 3:18, and it started right up! So, I tried the same thing, and mine started right up! So, if anyone out there can't get their new machine started, try opening the choke a bit. Thank you, Mountain Man!!!
You were on a rock that’s why it is bouncing. This is a awesome video….. an honest one. Brotha you did a great job making this video and the using the auger! Thank you so much for this clip! God bless Brotha!!!!
Hey man thanks for making this I appreciate it. We just bought one of these to build a fence for the dogs and wanted to see how it worked. This will be our first time using an auger as well! 😅
this is real experience for most first timers! Like the realness of the video. Most things take getting use to! I have never used an earth auger, but have drilled many ice holes. Ice I imagine is way easier! This video scares me, not sure if I will be happy if its this hard to drill post holes. I have many to do! Did you end up getting the hang of it? I wanted if I should get the auger for my tractor instead, my tractor is only a sub compact though
Haha yeah I got slightly better with it but it's still a beast. I regretted not getting one for my tractor, but since then I've seen a lot of people get them stuck so who knows lol
What area/region is this? I'm in NorKal and this looks just like my surrounding area. I bought one of those from HF. It was useless and I thought it was going to katch on fire before i quit and took it bakk. I recently got a small traktor with 3rd funktion. I'm going to try building a hydraulik auger with a hydraulik winch motor. Then use these bits. I've debated affixing one of these 2 stroke units to my traktor bukket but i figure it will still fail but with less arm fatigue. Where i live the klay and granite ate like best friends and always together. I think that machine aktivated arthritis in my wrists. Lol Great vid. I'm subbing. 🤘
Hello! I'm from Northern PA. They have decent 3 point augers for your tractor at tractor supply. (depending on its size). I've been looking at them for a bit haha

Oh awesome, glad it helped :) Good luck! I definitely feel it for a few days after I use it haha
Brother, you need to clear your debris as you go, just like you would with a wood bit. Good video review though!
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind next time. I definitely was trying to use it way too fast here.

small auger first-- you would go with 3 inch bit going through wood or steel first either---
I plan on getting one of those, but I'm going to attach it to my backhoe.
Thats the way to do it for sure lol
Hitting roots?
We gotten the Robyi battery auger. I did one hole and my blood pressure shot up high. I said these is for younger guys.
Lol you aren't wrong!

You need to pull dirt out as you go !
What diameter bit is that?
8 inch
LMAO after 20 holes most people get better. Less pressure more rpm much more in and out, will eject dirt and rocks😅
Yeah I did eventually figure that out haha. Thanks for watching
You must let the auger drill do the work, not you!
What rocky soil
Just a weak engine
Not enough torque
No rocks came out that
I can c
Roots…
