OPERATION
PRE-START INSPECTION: The following Pre-start-up inspection must be performed before the start of
each work session or after every four hours of use, whichever is rst. If any fault is discovered, the compactor
must not be used until the fault is rectied
3
1. Thoroughly inspect the compactor for signs of damage. Check components are present and secure. Pay
special attention to the belt drive safety guard tted between the engine and the vibrator unit.
2. Check the engine oil level and top up as necessary.
3. Check the engine fuel level and top up as necessary.
4. Check for fuel and oil leaks.
START AND STOP PROCEDURE - DIESEL ENGINE
1. Open the fuel cock.
2. Turn the governor lever to “STARTING” position.
3. Hold the recoil starter handle.
4. Pull the starter handle until you feel the resistance, then return handle
slowly.
5. Press the decompression lever to “Non-compression” position. The lever
will return back automatically after the engine started.
6. Hold the recoil starter handle with two hands and pull it hard.
7. It is difcult to start the engine at cold weather. Remove the rubber plug
on the cylinder head and ll about 2CC engine oil before starting.
8. To stop the engine, set the governor lever to the low speed position, then
run the engine at zero load ve minutes.
9. Set the governor lever to the “STOP” position. Do not stop the engine with the decompression lever.
10. Set the fuel cock the “OFF” position.
11. Pull the recoil starter handles slowly, until you feel resistance. (At this point,the decompression just
begins and intake/exhaust valves are both closed, thus the cylinder can be prevented from rust.)
12. Concerning the electric starting engine, directly turn the starting key to “CLOSE” position.
START AND STOP PROCEDURE - PETROL ENGINE
1. Open the fuel tap by moving the fuel ON/OFF lever fully to the right.
2. If starting the engine from cold, set the choke ON by moving the choke lever fully to the left. If restarting a
warm engine,the choke is usually not required. However,if the engine has cooled to a degree, partial choke
may be required.
3. Turn the engine ON/OFF switch clockwise to the “1” position.
4. Set the throttle to the idle position by moving the throttle lever fully to the right. Do not start the engine on
full throttle,as the compactor will vibrate as soon as the engine starts.
