Jiffy ice augers can bind due to several reasons, including ice buildup on the blades, dull blades, or a misaligned blade. Regular maintenance, such as keeping the blades sharp and clear of ice, can help prevent binding issues. If the auger continues to bind, it may be best to have it inspected by a professional to identify the specific cause.

It may require some engineering and modifications, but it can be done with the right skills and tools.
