DESCRIPTION 2. Description: 2.1 Dimensions . 900 1765 2.2 Max. Admissible inclination: . ,p .
Description 2.3 Description of function 2.3.1 The vibration required for compaction is produced by the exciter (5) which is firmly joined to the lower mass (8). This exciter (5) is designed as a central vibrator with aligned vibrations. Such a principle permits the direction of vibration to be changed by turning the eccentric weights. In this way an infinitely variable transition between vibration in forward motion, at standstill and in reverse motion is possible.
2.3.3 The centrifugal clutch (4) interrupts flow of power to the exciter (5) at low engine speed and thus permits perfect idling of the drive engine (11). 2.3.4 The automatic V-belt pulley (13) combined with the centrifugal clutch (4) Ensures optimum tension of the exciter V-belt (6) during operation and relief of the tension of the exciter V-belt (6) when the machine is being relocated or transported. 2.3.
Transport to work site /Recommendations on compaction 3. Transport to work site /Recommendations on compaction 3.1 Transport to work site Conditions: • To transport the vibration plate, only use suitable lifting equipment with a minimum loadbearing capacity of 500 kg. • Always switch off engine before transporting the machine! • Vertically set guide handle head and lock into place using the lock hook (41). • Only attach suitable tackle at the central lifting point (40) provided.
3.2 Recommendations on compaction 3.2.1 Ground conditions The maximum compaction depth depends on several factors relating to the ground condition, such as moisture, grain distribution etc, it is therefore not possible to specify exact values. Recommendation: In each case determine the maximum compaction depth with compaction tests and soil samples. 3.2.
Operation 4. Operation 4.1 Starting 4.1.1 Conditions: Oil: Check oil level with oil dipstick, if necessary top up with Shell Omala Oil 100 through oil filler neck. Fuel: When pouring diesel fuel into the filler neck (15), maintain absolute cleanliness. Impurities in the fuel can cause breakdowns in the injection system and premature clogging of the fuel filter. Air filter: Clean air filter dry, dusty conditions. 4.1.2 Once these points have been observed, you can start the engine as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Wait until the engine stops before repeating the starting procedure. NOTICEImproper use can damage the compression lever. If the engine does not start, proceed as follows before attempting to start again: 1. Press the compression lever down fully and then pull it up. 2. Start the engine again. 4.2 Mechanical oil pressure control It is necessary to reactivate the mechanical oil pressure control in the following cases: • After the initial filling - first filling - of the fuel tank or if the tank has run dry.
4.3 Forward and reverse motion The engine speed can be infinitely varied on the throttle control lever. The direction of travel is determinate with the shift lever (6). Depending on the position of the shift lever (6), the vibration plate compacts in forward direction, at standstill or in reverse direction. The forward and reverse speeds can be varied by selecting intermediate positions of the shift lever (6) or the machine can be employed for particularly intensive compaction at standstill. 4.
4.6 Additional notes on starting at very low temperatures! Never use starting sprays or similar - they are forbidden because they are dangerous. Only use original Wacker crank. If cranking, is too slow, the engine can start running in the opposite direction of rotation. In this case the air is drawn in through the exhaust and the exhaust gases excape through the air filter. Risk of fire! Switch off engine and start it again.
