Changing Vibrator Oil
When changing the vibrator oil, remove the drain plug located
at the bottom-right of the vibrator, and simply tip the compactor
to drain the oil. Note that the oil will drain more easily while it is
hot. Replace the oil with 500ML of 10W-30 motor oil.
Air Filter
1. The air filter element should be cleaned because a clogged
air cleaner can cause poor engine starting, lack of power
and shorten engine life substantially.
2. To clean or replace air filter loosen the wing nut on the air
filter housing (Figure 1), remove the cover and take out air
filter cartridge. If only cleaning of the air filter is desired
blow through the air filter cartridge from the inside, moving
a jet of dry compressed air up and down until all dust is
removed.
CAUTION
:
Inspection and other services should
always be carried out on hard and level
ground with the engine shutdown.
