PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an automated hole-boring and fungus-inoculating machine aiming at the reduction of a working time and widely increasing the number of inoculated trees per hour by efficiently performing a boring of a material wood, inoculation and sealing with a wax. SOLUTION: This automated hole-boring and fungus-inoculating machine has a hanged plate 31 capable of forming a pendulum motion, a vertical transferring plate 32 and a horizontal transferring plate 33 at the lower portion of a supporting shaft 34. On the horizontal transferring plate 33, a hole-boring drill 13, a fungus-inoculating nozzle 14 and a sealing wax nozzle 15 are installed as freely being lifted up and down. On the tip of the vertical transferring plate 32, a holding down arm 37 for a material wood is mounted. The holding down arm 37 sets the center of the material wood by straddling the wood evenly, while making a pendulum motion in the lower direction of the supporting shaft 34. The sealing wax nozzle is lightably installed as one unit with the fungus- inoculating nozzle 14, and blows the prescribed amount of a wax on the inoculated hole in a prescribed timing of the inoculating nozzle from a time of just after striking a fungal seed into the hole for inoculation to a time of returning to its original position.
