For general-purpose driving of a ground rod, a ground rod driver is essential. This tool aids in securely fastening the rod into the earth. Different kinds of ground rod drivers come in different sizes and forms – the most popular being the air-powered pneumatic ground rod driver, as it is the most powerful. Additionally, hydraulic and manual options are available.
An air-powered pneumatic ground rod driver is the most popular choice, owing to its strength and speed, which can secure a ground rod into the earth in a flash. Though not as fast, the hydraulic driver still runs on air but requires slightly more time to complete its task. As for the manual variant, the hand crank means it’s the slowest of all three options but also the least powerful one.
When employing a ground rod driver, ensure that the rod is straightened. A crooked rod will not embed adequately into the surface. Additionally, for the rod to be driven in, make certain that the ground below is soft enough. Otherwise, if too solid, the rod will find it tough to penetrate the terrain.
In order to effectively use a ground rod driver, one must begin by connecting the air hose to the tool.This air hose needs to be linked with the compressor, then the rod is placed into the driver.Prior to attempting to push the rod into the ground, be sure that it’s in a proper position.
After the ground rod is set by the driver, the air compressor revs into action, pushing air which slowly moves the rod down to sink into the earth. As if taking a deep breath, the rod descends into the comforting embrace of its new home.
Keep a vigilant watch on the rod as it descends into the depths of the earth – be sure to inspect its progress, for you want it to remain in a vertical position. Should the rod start angling away from its upright trajectory, the air compressor must be shut off in order to rectify the situation.
With the installation of the ground rod fully competed, the air compressor can be deactivated. The rod is now embedded in the earth, ready to be utilized.
