IMPORTANT
SAFETY MESSAGE Safety is a primary concern in the design, manufacture, sale, and use of post hole diggers. As manufacturers of post hole diggers, we want to confirm to you, our customers, our concern for safety. We also want to remind you about the simple, basic, and common sense rules of safety when using a post hole digger. Failure to follow these rules can result in severe injury or death to operators or bystanders. It is essential that everyone involved in the assembly, operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of this equipment be aware, concerned, prudent, and properly trained in safety. The majority of accidents involve entanglement on the driveline or auger. This entanglement risk becomes greater when you replace our shear bolts with bolts longer than those specified by the manufacturer. This improper replacement occurs most often on machines that are loaned or rented to someone who has not read the owner's manual and is not familiar with a post hole digger. Our current production machines include, as standard equipment, guards or shields for auger adapters, drivelines, pinions, and safety signs. Older machines can be retrofitted to add these new guards or shields and, of course, safety signs. If you have an older machine which does not have standard safety equipment, please contact your dealer about bringing your machine up to the current level of safety. Below
are some of the most important safety rules to be understood and followed
by anyone who works with post hole diggers: |

Following these simple, basic safety rules, as well as others identified in the owner's manual and in product safety signs, will help minimize the possibility of accidents and increase your productivity in using this product. Be careful and make sure that everyone who operates the digger knows and understands that it is a very powerful piece of machinery, and if used improperly, serious injury or death may result. The final responsibility for safety rests with the operator of this machine. Update your older Danuser PTO Digger to current production safety standards and provide parts availability in the future.

NOT OPERATE YOUR OLDER F-SERIES PTO DIGGER UNTIL YOU HAVE UPDATED TO
CURRENT PRODUCTION SAFETY STANDARDS. Current production Danuser F-Series PTO
Diggers include a # 7562 Pinion Assembly.

on the driveline, and the driveline will be connected to the input
pinion using a roll pin.

the serial number of your F-Series PTO Digger is 60,001 to 71,199 and
the unit has not been converted to the # 7562 Pinion Assembly, you

# 7580 Conversion Kit is the same as the # 7577 Conversion Kit, except
it comes with a # 9545 Auger Adapter Guard for 3-5/8" diameter
center column augers. The
# 7581 Conversion Kit is the same as the # 7578 Conversion Kit, except

install these conversion kits, you will need to disassemble the
gearbox. Instructions
sheets are provided in the kits.
