YOU MUST SUPPLY YOUR OWN DRILL TO POWER THIS GARDEN AUGER. This bulb auger fits 3/8'' drills and larger, and any corded drill will provide plenty of power for the garden auger. If using a cordless drill to power this garden auger, we recommend using Milwaukee or DeWalt brand.
Sturdier 3/8'' cold rolled steel shaft features three flats on the end, allowing you to really tighten up your drill chuck and prevent spinning and slipping.
IMPORTANT- please read
This auger will NOT work if your drill is in reverse. If your auger seems to spin on top of the ground and not dig in, check to see if your drill is in reverse.
Check closely when tightening up the drill chuck on the auger. Make sure to match the flats of the drill chuck to the flats on the auger shaft. If you chuck up on the round part of the shaft, the auger could slip or spin in the drill chuck.
Operate your drill in the lowest gear setting possible. Always wear safety glasses and use two hands when operating the drill. Do not pry with the auger. Keep it straight up and down when using it to drill in soil.
