SUBSEQUENT STARTING OF THE PLATE COMPACTOR
If this is not the first time using the plate compactor, user should take the following steps to
prepare it for operation.
IMPORTANT:
At this point the user should be familiar with the procedures described in the
section titled “Using the Plate compactor for the First Time.” If the user has not yet read
this section, go back and read it now.
Step 1- Check the Oil
Oil consumption is normal during plate compactor usage. The plate compactor is equipped with a
low-oil shutoff to protect it from damage. The oil level in the engine should be checked before
each use to ensure that the engine crankcase contains sufficient lubricant.
To check or add oil, follow these steps:
1.
Make sure the plate compactor is on a level surface. Clean around oil fill.
2.
Remove the oil filler/dipstick cap and check oil level.
3.
If oil level is below the second thread from the lip of the oil fill opening, slowly add oil
until the engine crankcase is filled.
4.
Reinstall and tighten oil filler cap before starting the engine. .
Step 2 – Check the Fuel Level
Before starting the plate compactor, check to see that there is sufficient gasoline in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge on top of the plate compactor will indicate the fuel level in the tank. Add gasoline
if necessary but leave sufficient room in tank for expansion.
WARNING:
This plate compactor may emit highly
flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can
cause severe burns or even death if ignited. A nearby
open flame can lead to explosion even if not directly in contact with fuel.
•
Do not operate near open flame.
•
Do not smoke near plate compactor.
•
Always operate on a firm, level surface.
•
Always turn engine off before refueling. Allow engine to cool for at least 2 minutes
before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
•
Do not overfill fuel tank. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the
top of the tank. Allow for expansion.
•
Always check for spilled fuel before operating. Clean up any spilled fuel before
starting.
•
Empty fuel tank before storing or transporting the plate compactor.
•
Before transporting, turn fuel valve to off and disconnect spark plug wire.
IMPORTANT:
•
Use only UNLEADED gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher.
•
Do not use old gasoline.
•
Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.
•
Avoid letting dirt or water into the fuel tank.
