Earth auger Blue Bird 521-ESS: for drilling holes in the ground

The earth auger Blue Bird 521-ESS is designed to make it easier to prepare holes in the ground for installing posts and planting. The auger bit drills the hole and must be selected separately according to the hole required and its compatibility with the machine. The 43 cc engine develops 1.25 kW at 6,500 rpm; the stated maximum drilling diameter is 200 mm.

The maximum drilling diameter does not make every bit of the same size compatible; the fitting and compatibility with the model must also be checked. The auger bit is not included. For the working depth, consider the bit and any extension configuration specified in the manual.
