EXCELLENT CHOICE! The Ingersoll-Rand Reversible Plate
Compactor you have chosen will give you many hours of
maintenance free operation resulting in a faster return of your
investment.
Safe operation depends on reliable equipment and the use
of proper operating procedures. Performing the checks and
services described in this manual will help keep your machine
in good condition. These recommended operation
procedures will help you to avoid unsafe practices.
Safety notes have been included throughout this manual to
help you avoid injury and prevent damage to the equipment.
These notes are not intended to cover all eventualities; it is
impossible to anticipate and evaluate all possible methods
of operation. Therefore, you are the only person who can
guarantee safe operation and maintenance.
It is important that any procedure not specifically
recommended in this manual be thoroughly evaluated from
the standpoint of safety before it is implemented.
Continuing improvement and advancement of product design
may cause changes to your machine which may not be
included in this publication. Each publication is reviewed
and revised, as required, to update and include these changes
in later editions. Ingersoll-Rand reserves the right to modify
or make changes within a specific model group without notice
and without incurring any liability to retrofit units previously
shipped from the factory. Contact your Ingersoll-Rand
Distributor for non-routine maintenance information that is
not covered in this publication.
