This will compensate for the pivoting action of the machine and keep your hole straight and vertical. (See Figure I.) 6. Periodically, lift the Bit (65) to clear loose dirt from the hole. This will help to keep the Auger from binding as well as minimize the dirt being lifted out of the hole. (See Figure I.) 7. If the Bit (65) becomes stuck, squeeze the left side of the Trigg
