As it’s battery-powered, it’s also quiet to use and suited to working in noise sensitive areas without the need for hearing protection. Designed as a one-person tool, the auger has a well-balanced, close-to-body drilling axis to support an ergonomic working position. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl is simple via the handle, with three operating modes to suit the job: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlow \/ Low gear\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(0-170 rpm)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e- for easy, low-kickback work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFast \/ High gea\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003er (0-230 rpm) \u003c\/strong\u003e- for tougher ground conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReverse gear\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(0-35 rpm) \u003c\/strong\u003e- to help free jammed drill bits from roots or stones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe selected mode is activated on the control handle and shown clearly on the integrated display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA large, comfortable cushion helps you guide the auger smoothly and precisely during drilling.
