P1 Petrol Earth Auger with Brake System
The P1-EA560 Petrol Earth Auger (P1-EA560) is designed to drill quickly and efficiently through even the toughest soil. Ideal for fencing, landscaping, and tree planting, it combines power, precision, and durability for both domestic and professional users.
Upgraded 56 cc 2-Stroke Engine
Powered by the new 56 cc heavy-duty 2-stroke engine, the P1-EA560 delivers 15 % higher mid-range torque than traditional 52 cc models, allowing smoother drilling at lower throttle settings.
This reduces fuel consumption, vibration, and noise, while extending engine life and operator comfort.
- Engine endurance-tested to over 250 hours (compared to 80–120 hours for standard home-use engines)
- Improved real-world fuel economy - typically runs 5–10 minutes longer per tank under identical conditions
- Lower running temperatures for better efficiency and longer component life
Anti-Kickback Safety Brake
The key difference in the P1-EA560BR is its anti-kickback brake system:
- Instantly stops the engine if the auger jams or hits a rock
- Protects the operator from sudden torque reactions
- Ideal for rocky or unpredictable soil conditions
Easy Starting & Operation
Designed for convenience and reliability, the P1-EA560 features a number of operator-friendly upgrades:
- Soft-start recoil system for smoother, easier starts
- Long-life Nylon 66 pull cord for extra durability
- Automatic reset ON/OFF switch — always ready to start
- Fingertip throttle control and safety trigger on the right-hand grip for precise and safe operation
Fence Post Auger for Multiple Applications
Perfect for preparing the ground for planting trees, installing fence posts, and landscaping, this P1 earth auger handles a wide range of drilling tasks with ease - even in compacted or rocky soil.
3 Interchangeable Drill Attachments
Supplied with three quick-release steel auger bits (100 mm, 150 mm, and 200 mm), the P1-EA560 can drill holes up to 730 mm deep.
The quick-action release mechanism allows for rapid bit changes, minimising downtime between jobs.
Control and Comfort
Weighing just 13 kg, this auger boasts a high power-to-weight ratio and is fitted with a large vibration-reducing handlebar, giving excellent control of both level and depth.
Built for Longevity
Constructed with a rugged steel frame and heavy-duty air filter, the P1-EA560 is engineered for long service life, even in dusty or demanding environments.
A gear-reduction drive provides stronger torque transfer for superior drilling performance.
Low Emissions & Environmental Performance
The P1-EA560 meets the EUV emission standard, with exhaust levels well below the 72 g/kW·h limit - delivering powerful yet cleaner operation.
3-Year Warranty
For peace of mind, the P1-EA560 is backed by the comprehensive P1 3-year warranty, ensuring reliability and support long after purchase.
