GroundConditions
The AGR1300H is designed to run safely and eciently with certain ground conditions. Ideally, run your auger in
damp or moist soil. The AGR1300H can also run eciently in dry or sandy soil. NEVER operate the auger during
a thunderstorm, snowstorm, or if the ground is frozen. Operating the auger in frozen soil can damage the ights
and/or bit.
Before starting any project, ALWAYS call 811 in your state. By mapping out potential obstacles such as utility
lines, 811 “Call Before You Dig” ensures your safety while drilling with your BILLY GOAT® Auger.

HandlingandTransporting
We recommend transporting your BILLY GOAT® Auger in a trailer or in the bed of a pick-up truck. Never tow
your Auger. The machine is designed without a hitch assembly. The BILLY GOAT® Auger is not equipped to
drive or be towed at typical road speeds. The operator should never attempt to couple the Auger to a
vehicle.
To drive your BILLY GOAT® Auger safely to desired work location, familiarize yourself with the operator
controls shown above. Always drive with the transport lock handle down in the locked position (See Figure B in
the “Drilling a Hole” section). The transport lock handle locks the operator’s handles into a managable driving
position. Engage both parking brakes to ensure the unit does not tip or slide while transporting in the trailer or
pick-up truck bed.
