SECTION 4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NSPECTION PRIOR TO OPERATION
CHECK ENGINE OIL
Before checking or refilling engine oil, be sure the compactor is located on a stable level surface.
Do not thread the gauge into oil filler to check oil level. If the oil level is below the lower level line on the dipstick, refill with the
proper oil to the upper level (to the neck of oil filler). See section 9.
CHECK ENGINE FUEL
Do not refuel while smoking, near an open flame or other potential hazards.
CLEANING AIR CLEANER
Do not run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will result.
If the air cleaner element is seriously contaminated, engine start up failure, poor output or engine
malfunction may result.
Check Air Cleaner to be sure it is clean and not contaminated. If cleaning is required, perform the following steps:
Remove the wing nut, air cleaner cover, outer urethane foam element and inner paper element. Wash the foam element
in a household cleaner and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely . Saturate the foam element in engine oil
and squeeze out the excess oil. Tap the inner paper element lightly on a hard surface or blow out with compressed air from the
inside. Do not use a brush to clean the element. Wipe out the air cleaner cover with a clean damp cloth and reassemble the air
cleaner.
CHECK EACH PART FOR LOSE OR BROKEN BOLTS AND NUTS
Tighten loose bolts and nuts, if any. Check each part for fuel or oil leak. Replace broken or damaged parts, if any, with new
ones.
