TRANSPORT

During transport, loading and unloading of vibration plates by means of lifting devices, appropriate slinging means or hooks have to be used on the lifting points provided for this purpose on the vibratory plate.
The load-carrying capacity of the loading ramps has to be sufficient and the ramps have to be secure such that they cannot turn over. Make sure that no one be endangered by machines turning over by slopping or by moving machine parts.
When being transported on vehicles, precautions have to be taken that vibration plates do not slip or turn over.

APPLICATIONS

The machines is perfectly suited for the compaction of all types of soil including semi-cohesive soils in trench and surface compaction applications as well as for the compaction of asphalt pavements and the vibration of interlocking paving stones. This machine is the most universally deployable machine of this line of products thanks to the optimum balance between the centrifugal force and the contact surface.

DIMENSIONS

Max. Allowable in continuous operation:

DESCRIPTION

The vibration required for compaction is produced by the exciter (4) which is firmly joined to the lower mass (3). This exciter (4) is designed as a central vibrator with aligned vibrations. Such a principle permits the direction of vibration to be changed by turning the eccentric weights (16). In this way an infinitely variable transition between vibration in forward motion, at standstill and in reverse motion is possible. This process is hydraulically controlled with the operating control handle (8) on the centre pole head (9).

The drive engine (1) is anchored to the upper mass (2) and drives the exciter (4). The torque is transmitted by means of a friction connection through the centrifugal clutch (14) and the exciter V-belt (13).

The centrifugal clutch (14) interrupts the power transmission to the exciter (4) at low engine turning speed, thus allowing for a perfect idling speed of the drive engine (1). The turning speed of the engine (1) can be infinitely adjusted by way of the throttle lever (6).

The upper (2) and lower (3) masses are connected to each other by 4 vibration-damping shock mounts (11). This damping system prevents the very high frequencies from being transmitted to the upper mass (2). As a result the functionability of the drive engine (1) is retained in spite of the high compaction performance.

The drive engine (1) works according to the 4-stroke principle, is started by way of a recoil starter, sucks in combustion air over a dry air filter (7) and is air-cooled.

To facilitate the starting procedure the drive engine (1) has a decompression mechanism.

TRANSPORT PRECAUTIONS

To transport the vibration plates, use only suitable lifting equipment with a minimum load-bearing capacity of 200 kg.
Only attach suitable tackle at the central lifting point (5) provided.
Always tie down the vibratory plate by the protective frame (10) and latch the center pole in place during transport of the vibratory plate on the loading area of a transport vehicle.

ATTENTION! The engine must be stopped when using the integrated transport device. Lubrication of the engine is not guaranteed if the engine is running when the plate is in transport position. This could lead to serious engine damages. Furthermore the danger exists that oil will spill out of the crankcase breather.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON COMPACTION

Ground conditions

The Max. Compaction depth depends on several factors relating to the ground condition, such as moisture, grain distribution etc. It is therefore not possible to specify exact values.

Recommendation: In each case determine the max. Compaction depth with compaction tests and soil samples

Compaction on slopes

The following points are to be observed when compacting on sloped surfaces (slopes, embankments):

Only approach gradients from the bottom (a gradient which can be easily overcome upwards, can also be compacted downwards without any risk).
The operator must never stand in the direction of descent.
The max. Gradient of 20° must not be exceeded.

ATTENTION! If this gradient were exceeded, this would result in a failure of the engine lubrication system (splash lubrication) and thus inevitably lead to a breakdown of important engine components.

ENGINE CHECK BEFORE STARTING

1. Oil lever check

Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level position.

Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
Insert the oil filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck as shown, but do not screw it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
If the oil level is near to below the lower limit mark on the dipstick, fill with the recommended oil to the upper limit mark (bottom edge of the oil fill holes). Do not overfill.
Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.

ATTENTION! Place machine in horizontal position before checking engine oil level.

2.Recommended oil

SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities shown in the chart may be used when the average temperature in your area is with the recommended range.

3. Recommended fuel

The engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline with a research octane rating of 90 or higher. Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Air cleaner

Check the air cleaner elements to be sure are clean and in good condition. Clean or replace the elements it necessary. A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance.

Notice! Operating the engine without an air filter element, or with a damaged air filter element, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine.

STARTING THE ENGINE

Move the fuel shut-off valve (lever in arrow direction) to the "ON" Position.

Move the choke lever to the "CLOSE" position.

NOTICE! If the engine is warm or the air temperature is high, move the control lever away from the OPEN position as soon as the engine starts.

3. Pull the throttle lever (6) back slightly.

4.Turn the engine switch to the on position.

5. Pull the starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then pull briskly. Return the starter grip gently.

CAUTION! Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter.

OPERATION THE ENGINE

As the engine warms up, gradually move the choke lever to the OPEN position.

Position the throttle lever for the desired engine speed.

FORWARD AND REVERSE MOTION

The engine speed can be infinitely varied with the throttle control lever (6).

The direction of travel is determined with the operating control handle (8).

Depending on the position of the control handle (8), the vibration plate compacts in forward direction, on the spot or in reverse direction.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

To stop the engine in an emergency, turn the engine switch to the OFF position.

Under normal conditions, use the following procedure.

1. Push the throttle lever forward all the way to the stop.

2. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.

Turn OFF the fuel shut-off valve (lever in arrow direction).
