OPERATION
6. If the choke lever was moved to the
CLOSED
position,
slowly return the choke lever to the
OPEN
position.
7. If the engine has not started, repeat steps 1 through 5.
8. Before the compactor is put into operation, run the
engine for 3-5 minutes.
9. Check for abnormal engine noises or fuel leaks.
OPERATION
1. Once the engine has started, move the engine throttle
lever quickly to the fast position.
2. With the throttle lever in the fast position, the engine
speed should be around 2,300 RPM therefore
engaging the centrifugal clutch.
3. Firmly grasp the compactor's handle bar with both
hands. The compactor will begin moving forward.
4. Slowly walk behind the compactor and be on the
lookout for any large objects or foreign matter that
might cause damage to the compactor or bodily injury.
CAUTION
Make sure to follow all safety rules referenced in
the safety information section of this manual before
operating compactor. Keep work area clear of debris
and other objects that could cause damage to the
compactor or bodily injury.
NOTICE
ALWAYS
move the throttle lever quickly without
hesitation, because increasing the engine speed slowly
causes the clutch to slip.
5. Compactor traveling speed may drop on soils which
contain clay. However, there may be cases where
traveling speed drops because the compaction plate
does not leave the ground surface easily due to the
composition of the soil. To rectify this problem, do the
following:
a. Check the bottom plate to see if clay or equivalent
material has been lodged in the plate mechanism.
If so, wash with water and remove.
b. Remember the compactor does not work as
efficiently on clay or soils that have a high moisture
content level. If the soil has a high moisture level,
dry soil to appropriate moisture content level or
carry out compaction twice.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Normal Shutdown
1. Place the throttle lever (Figure 14) in slow position, and
listen for the engine speed to decrease.
2. Place the Engine
ON/OFF
switch (Figure 10) in the
OFF
position.
3. Place the fuel valve lever (Figure 9) in the
OFF
position.
Emergency Shutdown
Move the throttle lever quickly to the
SLOW
position, and
place the Engine
ON/OFF
switch in the
OFF
position.
CAUTION
NEVER
stop the engine suddenly while working at
high speeds.
