Foreword 1. Foreword For your own safety and protection from bodily injuries, carefully read, understand and follow the safety information in this manual. Please operate and maintain your Wacker machine in accordance with the instructions in this operator's manual. Your Wacker machine will reward you with troublefree operation and a high degree of availability. Defective components must be replaced immediately.
Important note This machine is equipped with an EPA-certified motor. Relevant details can be found in the instructions of the motor manufacturer. WARNING The motor's exhaust fumes contain chemicals which the State of California knows may cause cancer, congenital defects or other reproductive anomalies. Caution This is an EPA motor. Regulating the motor speed influences the EPA certification and emission. The motor may only be set by a skilled technician.
Safety information 2. Safety information For vibrating plates with combustion engine drive 2.1 General instructions 2.1.1 Vibrating plates may only be operated by persons who ∗ are at least 18 years of age, ∗ are physically and mentally fit for this job, ∗ have been instructed in operating vibrating plates and have proved their ability for the job to the employer, ∗ may be expected to carry out the job they are charged with carefully.
Safety information SV00069en.fm 2.2.3 The operator must not leave the operator's area during the operation of the machine. 2.2.4 Before going on breaks, the operator must switch off the motor of the machine. The machine must be set down so it cannot tip over. 2.2.5 The tank may only be filled when the motor is switched off and the fuel must not make contact with hot parts or fall on the ground. 2.2.6 Open flames and smoking are strictly prohibited in the immediate vicinity of this machine. 2.2.
Safety information 2.3 SV00069en.fm 2.2.13 Wear suitable protective clothing during work and maintenance work. 2.2.14 When operating in the reverse direction, the operator must operate the vibrating plate from the side in order to protect themselves from being crushed between the end of the guide handle / machine and an obstacle. Great care is necessary when working on uneven terrain and compacting large materials. A safe distance must be kept here. 2.2.
Safety information 2.4 SV00069en.fm Maintenance 2.4.1 Only use original spare parts. Alterations to this machine, incl. adjustments of the maximum engine speed set by the manufacturer may only be carried out with the express permission of WACKER. In case of non-observance, all liability shall be refused. 2.4.2 Maintenance work may only be carried out when the drives are stationary. If a spark plug connector is present, this should be removed.
Safety information 2.5 2.6 Transport 2.5.1 For the loading and transportation of compacting machines with hoisting gear, suitable sling chains must be secured at the relevant fixing point. 2.5.2 Loading ramps must be able to bear the load and be in a stable position. Make sure that no one can be endangered if the machine slips away or tips over, or if parts suddenly move upward or downward. 2.5.

Description 4. Description 4.1 Field of application 4.1.1 BPU 2540 Through the low width and continuous switchability especially suitable for all surface compacting work in limited space conditions (e.g. in cable trenches) or the compacting of edge trims when repairing blacktops, as well as all compacting work where the use of a large machine is not possible. 4.1.
Description 4.3 Functional description The vibration required for compaction is generated by the exciter (5) that is permanently attached to the base plate (4). The exciter is designed as a central vibrator with directional vibrations. This principle allows you to change the direction of vibration by simply turning the eccentric weights (13). This makes a gradual transition possible between the vibration states: moving forward, moving in reverse and in a stationary position.
Description The upper mass (3) and the base plate (4) are connected to each other via 4 vibration-damping rubber metal shockmounts (11). This damping prevents very high frequencies from being transferred to the upper mass (3). This maintains proper functioning of the drive motor (1) despite a high compaction capacity. T01090en.
Transport to the worksite 5. Transport to the worksite Requirements: ∗ When transporting the vibrating plate compactor, use only suitable hoisting gear with a minimum load-bearing capacity of 200 kg. ∗ Always turn off the motor during transportation! ∗ Vertically set guide handle head and lock into place. ∗ Fasten suitable lifting tackle to the central suspension (15) provided.
Recommendations for compacting 6. Recommendations for compacting 6.0.1 Condition of the ground The maximum layer thickness depends on several factors such as the condition of the ground/soil, the moisture, grading etc. This is why it is not always possible to make precise recommendations. Recommendation: In certain cases, determine the maximum layer thickness by conducting compacting tests and taking ground samples. 6.0.
Operation 7. Operation 7.1 Start preparation Before you start the engine, check the following: f Fuel level – the tank should be at least half full. f Motor oil level. f Air filter. f Fuel lines for leaks. f External screw connections for tightness. 7.2 Starting the engine b2 a2 c3 c2 c1 b1 a1 d1 d2 e wc_gr000655 f Open the fuel tap (a1). f Cold start: Close the choke (d2).
