INSPECTION BEFORE OPERATION
Set the machine on a level surface, then
remove the oil gauge of the vibrator. Check
the oil gauge to see if the oil is at the speci-
fied level. Use engine oil SAE10W-30 as
lubrication oil.
Remove the drain plug in Vibrator Assembly
and check the oil level. Make sure the oil
quantity is set at level of plug hole for check-
ing. Every month or every 200 hours of op-
eration, replace the oil.
A regular grade gasoline should be used in
the engine. When filling the fuel tank, make
sure the fuel filter is used.
Never refuel this machine while leaving the
engine running. There is danger of fire.
Never smoke, or put other flames close to
this machine while refueling. Serious haz-
ards such as burns and fire may result.
Choose a place free from flammable sub-
stances for refueling. Be careful not to spill
fuel. In case fuel should be spilled, wipe off
the spilled fuel completely.
Clean each part of the machine well to main-
tain dirt and dust-free condition. Pay special
attention to the soil adhered to the bottom of
the vibrating plate, engine cooling air inlet,
and the carburetor and air cleaner area to
keep those parts clean.
Check each part for any looseness of bolts.
Vibration causes bolts & nuts to loosen,
which might result in unexpected accident or
malfunction.
Inspect the guard hook, belt cover and an-
ti-vibration rubber, as well as to check the
function of speed adjustment wire and
speed adjusting lever.
Check V-belt tension. The belt should have
about 10 – 15mm of flexibility when pushed
strongly with a finger at the mid-point be-
tween the axes. If V-belt is loosened, power
is not transmitted well, which reduces com-
pacting force and shortens the life of V-belt.
In addition, the generated compaction force
will lead to irregular vibrations when the
engine revolutions are increased, and may
result in a machine failure.
Set the engine on a level surface to check
the oil level. If the oil level is low, add oil.
Use the following engine oil.

Conduct inspection while the engine is
stopped.If you get caught in the rotating
parts, you may suffer serious damage.
Conduct inspection after making this ma-
chine level and checking that the body
does not move.
