1.4 Operation
The force and the necessary vibration to compact the floor is generated through the vibrant box, in
whose interior it is equipped a set of eccentric masses that produce the force and frequency which is
transmitted to the floor for compactation.
A change in the oscillation sense, carried out by means of the control lever, changes the direction
sense.
This operation should be made with the machine in march and to the maximun of its speed.
The turn of the eccentric masses it is generated through the explosion engine, gasoline or diesel
depending of the model.
This engine fits on its axis a centrifugal clutch, which allow the exciter to be in a no vibration position
while the engine is in a slow speed level.
To start the machine, it is necessary to operate in the following way:
1) Close the choke lever.
2) Open the fuel cock.
3) Turn the switch in position ON in the gasoline engine.
4) Pull the starter handle and after starting return the starter lever to its original position. In diesel
engine, the starter will return automatically
5) Accelerate progressively until getting the maximum speed.
6) Move the direction lever in the required sense.
Attention
Is possible that with prolonged use, the lever of forward and reverse does not hold the position of
forward and back to the center position. This is due to wear of the cymbal that hold the lever and must
be held again. To make it operate as follows:
1- Remove cover (pos.29)
2- Loosen the nut (pos.8) on each side of the lever,
3- Tighten inner nuts (pos.8) on each side until the handle is put harder
4- Tighten the nut and put cover (pos.29)
