1.Priorto operation
1-1.Make
sure that all dirt,mud,etc.,are
thoroughly removed from the unit prior to
operation. Special effort should be given to the
buttom face of the vibrating
plate and those
areas adjacent to the cooling air inlet of engine,
carburetor, and air cleaner.
1-2 Check all bolts and screws for tightness and
make sure all bolts and screws are securely
tightened. Loose bolts and screws may cause
damage to the unit.
1-3 Check the V-be1t for tightness. The nomal slack
should be approximately 10-15mm(1/2")when
the belts are forcib1y depressed in the midd1e
position between the two sheaves.
If there is excess belt p1ay, there cou1d be a
decrease in the impact force or erratic
vibration, causing machine damage.
1-4 Check the engine oil level and if the engine oil
level is 1ow,it shou1d be refil1ed. Use the
proper motor oil as suggested in the table
be1ow.(Fig-1)
1-5 Remove the oil plug in the vibrator assembly
and check the oil level. Make sure the
compactor is level when checking. The oil level
should be up to the oil plug. Every month or
every 200 hours of operation, replace the oil.
(Fig - 2)
IMPORTANT:
Use the Motor oil SAE
When changing the oil,the old oil can be drained by
tipping the unit.
The oil will drain easily while it is hot.
1-6 A regular grade gasoline should be used in the
engine.
When filling the fuel tank, make sure the fuel
filter is used.
2. Caution
2-l Be careful with the operating place and
ventilation.
Avoid operating the machine in a closed room,
tunnel, or other badly ventilated places, since
its exhaust contains deadly poisonous carbon
monoxide. If the machine is employed
unavoidable operated in such a place,
discharge the exhaust outside the room by a
suitable means.
2-2 Be careful with the hot members.
Mufflers and other hot members are
dangerous. Do not touch them with unprepared
hand.
2-3 Observe with the following cautions when
transporting. Clamp fuel tank cap securely, and
turn the fuel valve OFF at the source during
transportation.
Drain gasoline from fuel tank before
transporting over a long distance or on rough
roads.
2-4 Stop engine without fail before replenishing fuel
tank.
Never replenish gasoline while the engine is
running or remains hot otherwise spilled or
evaporated fuel is liable to catch fire from
engine sparks or muffler heat.
Wipe off spilled fuel , if any, before starting
engine.
Be careful not to spill fuel.
2-5 Keep inflammables away from the vicinity of
the exhaust port.
Be careful with gasoline match, straw and
other inflammables, since the exhaust port is
subjected to a high temperature.
