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 ven-
tilation does not clear exhaust fumes. Repair fuel leaks
immediately. 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!
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Your new Bartell Vibratory Plate Compactor has been
shipped to you partially disassembled. Filling the fuel
tank and a brief check of lubricant levels in preparation
for operation is required. To complete the assembly the
following instructions will be helpful.
HANDLE
– Refer to the particular final assembly di-
agram in this parts book that corresponds with your
compactor model. Attach the one-piece handle with
the screws and lock washers supplied.
EXCITER
– When installing the exciter assembly between
the clamps, exciter housing should be located with an
equal dimension protruding beyond the outside faces
of the exciter clamps. The exciter clamp bolts must be
torqued to 50 foot pounds. DO NOT EXCEED THESE
RECOMMENDATIONS. Refer to the particular final as-
sembly diagram in the parts book that corresponds with
your compactor model.
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 maxi-
mum power is not attained, allow further warm-up
time. Fill fuel tank with clean gasoline, use safety
approved 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.
