Safety Information BV50A-H
1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use
This machine is a backpack-mounted fuel engine power source used to operate the
HMS series concrete vibrator. The Wacker Neuson backpack vibrator consists of the
fuel engine power unit, a flexshaft, and a vibrating head driven by the backpack power
unit, which is worn by the operator. The engine is designed to be started, throttled for
operation, and shut down by the operator while they wear the backpack.
This machine is intended to be used for consolidation of freshly poured, uncured
concrete immediately as the concrete is placed in flat, vertical, or other typically used
concrete forms.
This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use described
above. Using the machine for any other purpose could permanently damage the
machine or seriously injure the operator or other persons in the area. Machine damage
caused by misuse is not covered under warranty.
The following are some examples of misuse:
■ Using the machine to consolidate inappropriate materials such as acidic,
alkaline, or other non-liquid media
■ Operating the machine outside of factory specifications, especially over the
RPM limit
■ Using the machine with the vibrator head coming into contact with or being
inserted into parts of the body
■ Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings found on the
machine and in the Operator’s Manual
This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest global safety
standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate hazards as far as practicable
and to increase operator safety through protective guards and labeling. However, some
risks may remain even after protective measures have been taken. They are called
residual risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:
■ Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine
■ Chemical burns from the curing concrete
■ Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques
■ Fuel and its fumes, fuel spillage from improper lifting technique
To protect yourself and others, make sure you thoroughly read and understand the
safety information presented in this manual before operating the machine.
