particularly when operating in a dusty environment. Inspect, clean and / or replace the spark plug regularly Check all fasteners for
tightness as the machine is subject to vibration. Check V belt tension, wear and that it is running true. Adjust or replace as required.

vibrator assembly. 2. Check vibrator oil level by removing the plug (vibrator oil gauge) as shown in Fig-17. The oil level should be up to the
oil plug. If oil is required, replace using SAE motor oil, as suggested in the table Fig-1. 3. When changing the vibrator oil, remove the drain
