FOREWORD
The Bartell Vibratory Plate Compactor is highly effec-
tive for a wide variety of surface, sub-soil, and back-fill
materials. Although relatively light in weight and easy
to operate, the Vibratory Plate Compactor delivers a
tremendous impact to the soil. Pound for pound, the
compactors provide a higher impact force. That means
more productivity from our ideal combination of speed
and deeper compaction.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Always keep unauthorized, inexperienced, untrained
people away from this machine.
Rotating and moving parts will cause injury if contacted.
Make sure guards are in place. Keep hands and feet
away from moving parts.
Fuel the machine only when the engine is stopped, using
all necessary safety precautions.
The engine must always be stopped before attempting
any repair or adjustments. Ignition switch should be off.
Danger: Never operate the machine in an explosive
atmosphere, near combustible materials or where venti-
lation does not clear exhaust fumes. Repair fuel leaks im-
mediately. Refer to your engine owner’s manual for more
safety instructions.
Be careful not to come in contact with the muffler when
the engine is hot, serious burns may result!
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
An eccentric weight mounted on the exciter shaft
contained within the exciter housing is driven at high
speed by a clutch and belt drive system. This high
speed shaft revolution causes the rapid lifting and
downward ramming motion of the machine as well
as imparting a forward motion.
The plate compactor is designed to run at an en-
gine speed (engine take off shaft) of 3600 rpm.
(normally considered full throttle).
Running the engine at lower rpm’s will result in a
decrease of compaction force and lower travel
speed. It will create excessive “out-of-synch” vibra-
tions resulting in poor compaction, maneuverability,
excessive wear to the machine, and discomfort to
the operator.
STARTING PROCEDURE:
* WARM CLIMATE
Open fuel valve on gas tank. Set throttle lever to
“Fast” idle position, set choke to closed position,
start engine. Open choke slightly to prevent flood-
ing. Move to “Open” or “Run” position when engine
is warm, increase throttle to maximum operation
position (3600 rpm).
STARTING PROCEDURE:
* COLD CLIMATE
Follow same procedure as above but allow longer
warm-up period – 3 to 5 minutes. In cold weather,
oil is much heavier to move and requires more time
to work its way into the moving parts. If maximum
power is not attained, allow further warm-up time.
Fill fuel tank with clean gasoline, use safety ap-
proved gas containers. DO NOT MIX OIL WITH
GASOLINE – USE UNLEADED GAS ONLY.
STOPPING PROCEDURE
1. Throttle engine down.
2. Depress or turn off stop switch.
