3. While the engine is still warm, drain the oil from
the engine. Refill with fresh oil.
4. Let any fuel present drain out of the float chamber.
5. Use clean cloths to clean off the outside of the com-
pactor and to keep the air vents free of obstructions.
6. m Do not use strong detergents or petrole-
um based cleaners when cleaning plastic
parts. Chemicals can damage plastics.
7. Store your plate compactor in upright position in a
clean, dry building that has good ventilation.
m Do not store compactor with fuel in a non-ven-
tilated area where fuel fumes may reach flame,
sparks, pilot lights or any ignition sources.
Use only approved fuel containers.
Store the device and its accessories in a dark, dry
and frost-proof place that is inaccessible to children.
The optimum storage temperature is between 5 and
30˚C. Store the tool in its original packaging.
Cover the ool in order to protect it from dust and mois-
ture. Store the operating manual with the tool.
14. Maintenance
m ATTENTION!
Always shut the engine down and remove the spark
plug connector before carrying out any maintenance
work.
Maintaining your compactor will insure long life to the
machine and its components.
• Preventive Maintenance Turn off engine. Engine
must be cool.
• Keep the engine's throttle lever (10) in its SLOW
position, and remove spark plug wire from spark
plug and secure.
• Inspect the general condition of the plate compactor.
Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of
moving parts, cracked or broken parts, and any oth-
er condition that may affect its safe operation.
• Then use a premium quality lightweight machine oil
to lubricate all moving parts.
• Clean the bottom of the compactor base as soon as
it begins to pick up soil being compacted. The unit
can not do a good job if the bottom surface is not
smooth and clean.
• Replace spark plug wire.
Checking and replacing V-belt
• To ensure optimum power transmission from the
engine to the eccentric shaft, the V-belt (i) must be
in good condition.
• If the V-belt (i) is torn, worn out or smooth, it must
be replaced.

Replacing V-belt (fig. K + L + O)
• Turn off engine.
• Engine must be cool.
• Remove the belt guard (h) to access the V-belt (i).
• Loosen the four screws (e) on the engine and push
the motor a little bit forwards.
• Pull the old V-belt (i) off the pulleys and pull a new
belt into place correctly.
• Tension the belt (i) with the help of the adjusting
screw (f) and ensure that the engine / belt pulley
remain perpendicular.
• Tighten the drive belt (i) if the belt gives more than
10-15 mm (when pressing your thumb on it).
• Attach the belt guard (h) again.
m ATTENTION!
When removing or installing the drive belt (i), be care-
ful not to get your fingers caught between the belt
and pulley.
Exciter oil change (fig. O - Q)
We advise you to carry out this work with two
People due to the weight of the machine.
• Only change the oil once the eccentric vibration
unit has cooled.
• Remove the V-belt cover (h) and the V-belt (i).
• Loosen the screws (j) on the eccentric vibration unit
housing.
• Lift the entire upper part of the plate vibrator with the
engine off the eccentric vibration unit housing (k).
• Remove the oil drain screw (l) from the top of the
eccentric vibration unit, tip the eccentric vibration
unit housing (k) and drain the oil into a collection
pan. Check the oil for any swarf, in order to avoid
future problems.
• Return the eccentric vibration unit housing (k) to an
upright position.
• Re-fill the eccentric vibration unit housing (k) with
oil recommended for eccentric vibration units
m ATTENTION!
Do not overfill – overfilling can result in excessive
temperatures in the exciter.
Changing the motor oil (fig. M)
After 20 operating hours, the oil must be changed for
the first time, then every 100 operating hours.
To remove the oil proceed as follows:
• remove the flexible hose (g) and poor the oil into
a suitable bin.
• open the filling cap (measuring stick) and let the
oil drain.
• reconnect the flexible hose.
• fill the oil in, check with the measuring stick, and
close.
• pull starter slowly for 5 times, so that the oil spreads
(without ignition)
