Prior to the PAT a Formal Visual Inspection must be carried out by a
competent person to check the electrical safety of the equipment following
correct procedure. For guidelines on PAT and de
¿
nitions involved please
visit government website:
http://www.hse.gov.uk/electricity/faq-portable-appliance-testing.htm.
1. Place the PCLX 16/45E plate compactor into the test rig /
¿
xture
(Part No. 968/01200) with the front of the plate facing the anti-vibration
mounts (Item 1) , resting on the matting and with the handle swung back
(Fig C) . The Test rig must be located on a level
À
oor, in dry ambient
conditions with only the rubber feet touching the ground for appropriate
vibration damping ( NOTE : rubber feet are NOT designed to isolate the
product from the ground) .
2. Fit the Z-Bracket (Item 2) (Part No. 968/01205) to the switch by sliding
it until it securely clicks into place and presses the green ON button
of the switch.
3. Connect an approved PAT tester, con
¿
guring it according to your PCLX 16/45E speci
¿
cations (e.g. Voltage; Appliance Insulation
Class; Correct type of test etc.).
4. Make sure that PCEL-E plate compactor and PAT test
¿
xture are not touched by a human, animal or any other object and are not at
risk of doing so during the test. Conduct the test when and if you are happy that it is safe to do so.
Operating Instructions
GB
• Take the compactor to where it is required.
DO NOT use a Mechanical Hoist on the Hand Lifting Points (See Machine Description section).
Transporting the PCLX 16/45E is a 2 person operation. Use the provided Hand Lifting Points (See Machine Description section)
• NEVER leave the motor running whilst transporting or moving the PCLX 16/45E, even if it is only a short distance.
• Having carried out the checks listed in the ‘Pre-Start’ section, you may start the motor.
• Switch the machine on and use the control handle to steer or turn the PCLX 16/45E.
The vibrator will not only cause the baseplate to vibrate but will also cause it to travel forward. During normal operation you
should not have to push the PCLX 16/45E but allow it to travel at its own pace. The speed of travel will be determined by the
condition of the surface being compacted. If the surface to be compacted is on a slope, great care must be taken when controlling
the PCLX 16/45E’s direction of travel. If necessary, use a suitable rope attached to the PCLX 16/45E at a low point on the chassis,
to allow a helper to take part of the PCLX 16/45E’s weight. Work up and down a slope not across.
• Work the PCLX 16/45E over the surface in an organized pattern until the required compaction has been achieved.
Where there are a number of different layers to be compacted on top of each other, compact each layer individually.
Stopping the Motor
1. Depress the RED Button (O) to stop the machine (Fig A) .
Starting the Motor
1. Plug into power supply.
2. Depress the
GREEN Button (I) to start the machine (Fig B) .
