SAFETY
EA-410
Personal Condition and Safety Equipment
Users of this product risk injury to themselves and others if the unit is used improperly and/or safety
precautions are not followed. Proper clothing and safety gear must be worn when operating unit.
Physical Condition
Your judgment and physical dexterity may not be good:
• If you are tired or sick.
• If you are taking medication.
• If you have taken alcohol or drugs.
Operate unit only if you are physically and mentally well.
Eye Protection
• Eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 or CE requirements must be worn whenever you operate the
unit.
• For additional safety, a full-face shield may be worn over safety glasses or goggles to provide
protection from sharp branches or flying debris.
Hand Protection
Wear sturdy, no-slip, rubber work gloves to improve your grip on the handles. Gloves also provide protection
against cuts and scratches, cold environments, and reduce the transmission of machine vibration to your
hands.
Hearing/Ear Protection
ECHO recommends wearing hearing protection whenever unit is used.
Breathing Protection
Operators who are sensitive to dust or other common airborne allergens may need to wear a dust mask to
prevent inhaling these materials while operating unit. Dust masks can provide protection against dust, plant
debris, and other plant matter such as pollen. Make sure the mask does not impair your vision, and replace
the mask as needed to prevent air restrictions.
Proper Clothing
Wear snug-fitting, durable clothing:
• Pants should have long legs, shirts should have long sleeves.
• DO NOT WEAR SHORTS.
• DO NOT WEAR TIES, SCARVES, JEWELRY, or clothing with loose or hanging items that could become
entangled in moving parts or surrounding growth.
• Keep clothing buttoned or zipped, and keep shirt tails tucked in.
Wear sturdy work shoes with nonskid rubber soles:
• DO NOT WEAR OPEN TOED SHOES.

SAFETY
• DO NOT OPERATE UNIT BAREFOOTED.
Keep long hair away from engine and air intake. Retain hair with cap or net.
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatigue, which may lead to heat stroke. Schedule heavy
work for early morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler.
The components of this machine generate an electromagnetic field during operation, which may
interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, persons with
pacemakers should consult with their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating
this machine. In the absence of such information, ECHO does not recommend the use of ECHO
products by anyone who has a pacemaker.
Extended Operation / Extreme Conditions
Prolonged exposure to cold and/or vibration may result in injury. Read and follow all safety and
operation instructions to minimize risk of injury. Failure to follow instructions may result in painful
wrist/hand/arm injuries.
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s Phenomenon, which affects the fingers of certain individuals,
may be brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling
and burning sensations, followed by loss of color and numbness in the fingers. The following precautions are
strongly recommended, because the minimum exposure, which might trigger the ailment, is unknown.
• Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck, feet, ankles,
hands, and wrists.
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm
exercises during frequent work breaks, and also by not
smoking.
• Limit the hours of operation. Try to fill each day with jobs
where operating the unit or other hand-held power equipment
is not required.
• If you experience discomfort, redness, and swelling of the
fingers followed by whitening and loss of feeling, consult your physician before further exposing yourself to
cold and vibration.

SAFETY
EA-410
Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI)
It is believed that overusing the muscles and tendons of the fingers,
hands, arms, and shoulders may cause soreness, swelling,
numbness, weakness, and extreme pain in those areas. Certain
repetitive hand activities may put you at a high risk for developing a
Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI). An extreme RSI condition is Carpal
Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), which could occur when your wrist swells
and squeezes a vital nerve that runs through the area. Some believe
that prolonged exposure to vibration may contribute to CTS. CTS
can cause severe pain for months or even years.
To reduce the risk of RSI/CTS, do the following:
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended, or twisted position.
Instead try to maintain a straight wrist position. Also, when
grasping, use your whole hand, not just the thumb and index finger.
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your hands.
• Reduce the speed and force with which you do the repetitive movement.
• Do exercise to strengthen the hand and arm muscles.
• Immediately stop using all power equipment and consult a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness, or pain in
the fingers, hands, wrists, or arms. The sooner RSI/CTS is diagnosed, the more likely permanent nerve
and muscle damage can be prevented.
All over head electrical conductors and communications wires can have electricity flow with high
voltages. This unit is not insulated against electrical current. Never touch wires directly or indirectly,
otherwise serious injury or death may result.
Do not operate this product indoors or in inadequately ventilated areas. Engine exhaust contains
poisonous emissions and can cause serious injury or death.
• Provide all users of this equipment with the Operator’s Manual and Safety Manual for instructions on Safe
Operation.
• Review area to be augered. Beware of underground hazards such as electrical lines, gas lines, water
mains, or cable and telephone lines.
• Never use ice auger without checking with local authorities for safe ice thickness in lakes, ponds, and
rivers.
• Spectators and fellow workers must be warned, and children and animals prevented from coming nearer
than 3 m (10 ft.) while the unit is in use.
• Before starting the unit, equip yourself, and any person helping you, with the required Protective
Equipment and Clothing. Do not wear loose or baggy clothing while operating the auger.
• Do not allow children to operate auger at any time.
• Always keep hands, arms, legs, and feet clear of the rotating auger.

OPERATION
EA-410
OPERATION
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects
away from all openings. Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts
have come to a complete stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit.
Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can start fires. This unit is equipped with a spark
arrestor to prevent discharge of hot particles from the engine. Metal cutters can create sparks if the
cutter strikes rocks, metal, or other hard objects. Contact local fire authorities for laws or
regulations regarding fire prevention requirements.
Fuel
Alternative fuels, such as E-15 (15% ethanol), E-85 (85% ethanol) or any fuels not meeting ECHO
requirements are NOT approved for use in ECHO 2-stroke gasoline engines. Use of alternative fuels
may cause performance problems, loss of power, overheating, fuel vapor lock, and unintended
machine operation, including, but not limited to, improper clutch engagement. Alternative fuels may
also cause premature deterioration of fuel lines, gaskets, carburetors and other engine components.
Fuel Requirements
Gasoline - Use 89 Octane [R+M/2] (mid grade or higher) gasoline known to be good quality. Gasoline may
contain up to 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) or 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasoline containing
methanol (wood alcohol) is NOT approved. ECHO brand Power Fuel™ is 93 octane, ethanol-free fuel
premixed with ECHO Red Armor® engine oil at 50:1 ratio. Use of ECHO Power Fuel™ is recommended to
extend engine life in all air-cooled 2-stroke and 2/4-stroke hybrid engines.
Two Stroke Oil - A two-stroke engine oil meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. FD Standards
must be used. Echo brand premium Power Blend X™ Universal 2-Stroke Oil meets these standards. Engine
problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use an ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and
J.A.S.O. FD certified oil, such as Echo premium Power Blend X™, will void the two-stroke engine warranty.
Echo premium Power Blend X™ Universal 2-Stroke Oil may be mixed at 50:1 ratio for application in all Echo
engines sold in the past regardless of ratio specified in those manuals.
Handling Fuel
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing or handling, or serious personal
injury may result.
• Use an approved fuel container.
• DO NOT smoke near fuel.
• DO NOT allow flames or sparks near fuel.

amount of gasoline.
2. Add the proper amount of 2-stroke oil to gasoline.
3. Close container and shake to mix oil with gasoline.
4. Add remaining gasoline, close fuel container, and remix.
Spilled fuel is a leading cause of hydrocarbon emissions. Some
states may require the use of automatic fuel shut-off containers
to reduce fuel spillage.
For more information
scan this QR code.
After use
• DO NOT store a unit with fuel in its tank. Leaks can occur.
Return unused fuel to an approved fuel storage container.
Storage - Fuel storage laws vary by locality. Contact your local government for the laws affecting your area.
As a precaution, store fuel in an approved, airtight container. Store in a well-ventilated, unoccupied building,
away from sparks and flames.
Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect to use in thirty (30) days, ninety (90) days when a
fuel stabilizer is added.
Stored two-stroke fuel may separate. ALWAYS shake fuel container thoroughly before each use.

3. Firmly grip Throttle Handle and support handle.
4. Slowly squeeze throttle trigger to engage clutch and rotate
auger. Apply light downward pressure on handles to drill
hole. Periodically, raise the auger to help clear drilling debris
from the hole.
5. Overloading the auger during drilling may cause it to stop
turning. When this occurs, lift the auger to reduce the
drilling load on the engine, and allow drilling debris to be
augered out of the hole. Resume drilling.
While drilling, the auger may twist suddenly and forcefully if it
contacts large rocks, roots, or other hidden obstacles. Release
throttle trigger immediately, and lift auger out of hole. Clear the
obstacles to prevent damage, and then resume drilling.
6. Drilling holes six inches in diameter or larger may be easier
if two people hold the handles on opposite sides.
7. Two-man Operation - The operator (A), guides the auger
while gripping the Throttle Handle Assembly and lower hand grip. The helper (B), assists by guiding
auger while gripping loop handle on opposite side of auger.
8. Do not place excessive body weight on the unit. Allow auger
to drill with a shaving action using light downward pressure.
9. Do not use an ice auger in earth, or an earth auger in ice. A
different style of auger is required for each type of drilling.
10. Do not operate unit in excessively rocky ground.
Never operate auger with handles above chest height,
otherwise you could lose control, resulting in serious personal injury.
During operation, the muffler or catalytic muffler and surrounding cover become hot. Always keep
exhaust area clear of flammable debris during use, otherwise serious property damage or personal
injury may result.

Air Filter
Level 1.
Parts Required:
REPOWERTM Tune-Up Kit.
1. Brush dirt off air cleaner area. Keep dirt away from engine
and air intake grid.
2. Remove air filter cover. Brush dirt from inside cover and
away from edges of air filter.
3. Check air filter seal for tight fit with air filter case.
4. Remove air filter from case. Use care to prevent dirt and debris from falling into air filter case.
5. Inspect filter element and seal. Replace filter if any of these problems are present:
• Air filter seal does not fit tightly against case.
• Air filter seal is distorted, worn, or damaged.
• Air filter element has holes or other damage.
• Air filter element is saturated with dirt.
• Air filter element is soaked with fuel mix.
6. If air filter is in good condition and can be cleaned and reused, lightly brush debris from air filter element,
or blow filter element clean using low pressure (40 psi or less) compressed air directed at inside of filter.
When using compressed air, always direct air stream at inside surface of filter so dust and debris will be blown
out of filter. Keep air nozzle 6 - 8 inches away from filter to prevent damage to filter.
7. Install air filter in case, and replace cover.
Actual replacement interval for air filter depends on operating conditions. Operation in dustier applications
requires more frequent cleaning and replacement. Continued operation with a damaged or excessively dirty
filter will allow dirt and debris to enter engine, and result in poor performance, rapid engine wear, and premature
engine failure.
Fuel Filter
Level 1.
Parts Required:
REPOWERTM Tune-Up Kit.
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing,
storing or handling, or serious personal injury may result.
1. Use a clean rag to remove loose dirt from around fuel cap
and empty fuel tank.
2. Use a hook to pull the fuel line and filter from the tank.

MAINTENANCE
3. Remove the filter from the line and install the new filter.
Note: Federal EPA regulations require all model year 2012 and later gasoline powered engines produced for
sale in the United States to be equipped with a special low permeation fuel supply hose between the
carburetor and fuel tank. When servicing model year 2012 and later equipment, only fuel supply
hoses certified by EPA can be used to replace the original equipment supply hose. Fines up to
$37,500 may be enforced for using an un-certified replacement part.
Spark Plug
Level 2.
Parts Required:
REPOWERTM Tune-Up Kit
Use only NGK BPM-7A spark plug (BPMR-7A in Canada)
otherwise severe engine damage may occur.
.65 mm (.026 in.)
1. Remove spark plug and check for fouling, worn and rounded
center electrode.
2. Clean the plug or replace with a new one. DO NOT sand blast to clean. Remaining sand will damage
engine.
3. Adjust spark plug gap by bending outer electrode.
4. Tighten spark plug to 150-170 kgf • cm (130-150 in • lbf).
Cooling System
Level 2.
Parts Required:
None if you are careful.
To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling air must pass freely through the cylinder fin area.
This flow of air carries combustion heat away from the engine.
Overheating and engine seizure can occur when:
• Air intakes are blocked, preventing cooling air from reaching
the cylinder.
• Dust and grass build up on the outside of the cylinder. This
build up insulates the engine and prevents the heat from
leaving.
Removal of cooling passage blockages or cleaning of cooling
fins is considered “Normal Maintenance.” Any failure attributed
to lack of maintenance is not warranted.
1. Periodically blow dirt and debris off cooling fins with a
compressor and safety nozzle, or;

Level 1.
1. Inspect gear housing for cracks in surface; leaks at joints,
bearings, or seals; or damage of any kind.
If any damage is found, return unit to an authorized Echo dealer
for repair.
Carburetor Adjustment
Level 2.
Engine Break-In
New engines must be operated a minimum duration of two tanks of fuel break-in before carburetor
adjustments can be made. During the break-in period your engine performance will increase and exhaust
emissions will stabilize. Idle speed can be adjusted as required.
High Altitude Operation
This engine has been factory adjusted to maintain satisfactory starting, emission, and durability
performance up to 1,100 feet above sea level (ASL) (96.0 kPa). To maintain proper engine operation and
emission compliance above 1,100 feet ASL the carburetor may need to be adjusted by an authorized ECHO
service dealer.
If the engine is adjusted for operation above 1,100 feet ASL, the carburetor must be re-adjusted when
operating the engine below 1,100 feet ASL, otherwise severe engine damage may result.
Parts
Required:
None
Note: Every unit is run at the factory and the carburetor is set in compliance with emission regulations.
Carburetor adjustments, other than idle speed, must be performed by an authorized ECHO dealer.
