Step 4: Final Check

Double-check that all components are securely attached and the auger is properly assembled. Ensure the handle is comfortable to grip and the auger is securely attached.

Tips and Precautions

• Always obtain permission before accessing private property for soil sampling.

• Ensure you have the necessary access and permission to collect soil samples.

• Use caution when handling hand augers, as the edges can be sharp.

• Follow proper safety protocols when collecting soil samples, including wearing protective gear and ensuring a stable working surface.

• When collecting disturbed soil samples, ensure they are obtained from a depth that is representative of the soil’s characteristics.

• Use a soil core sampler to collect undisturbed soil samples for more accurate analysis.

• Hand augers are commonly used for shallow soil sampling but can be used for deeper depths with the addition of extensions.

• Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for assembly and use.

By following these assembly instructions and tips, you’ll be ready to start collecting soil samples with your hand auger in no time. Remember to always follow proper safety protocols and obtain the necessary permission and access before collecting samples.
