    7. TAKING INTO OPERATION

    WARNINGCarefully read the safety instructions for this section.

    7.1 Type of fuelFor this motor only standard type of non-leaded petrol octane-91 shall be used. Only use new and clean petrol. Water and contaminations will damage the fuel system.

    (Fig. 3)Volume of fuel tank: 3, 6 liter

    Refuel only in well ventilated surroundings and with the motor turned off. If the motor has been in operation prior to this, let it first cool down. Never refuel I surroundings where the fuel gases can caught on fire by sparks or open fire.

    Petrol is a very inflammable and explosive liquid. The handling of fuel can cause burns and other serious injuries. • Stop the motor and keep it away from heat, sparks and open fire.• Only refuel outdoors. • Immediately remove spilled out fuel

    7.2 Before taking into operation

    Before starting the motor the first time, motor oil has to be filled. If not, the motor will become seriously damaged which cannot be repaired. All warranties are consequently void.

    (Fig. 4 + 14) Use normal motor oil, 10W-30 or 10W-40Remove the screw for oil refill (13/2)Fill up oil till the level is visible at the windings (= lower part of the refill hole). Volume: ca. 0,6 liter (don´t overfill!)

    Before start, check:Oil levelFuel level (at least half the tank)Air filterFuel pipesOutside bolt and nut joints are firmly tightened.

    TAKING INTO OPERATION

    7.3 Starting the motor (Fig. 5 – 10)• Open the fuel tap (5) by pushing to the right.• In cold condition, push the choke lever (4) to the left, to the position “closed/geschlossen”.• In warm condition, put the choke lever (4) in right position, “open/geöffnet”• Push the gas lever (9) somewhat to the left.• Put the power switch (1) in position “ON/EIN”• Make a light pull in the starting wire (2) until a firm resistance is detected. Then, make a quick

    and hard pull in the starting wire. Let it roll back slowly.• Open the choke (4) while the motor runs warm. • During operation, open the gas lever (9) in full, or adjust to required rotation speed.

    7.4 Shutting down the motor (Fig. 11 – 13)• Put the gas lever (9) in idle speed “SLOW/LANGSAM”, to the right.• Put the power switch (1) in “OFF/AUS”• Close the fuel tap (5) by pushing to the left, “OFF/AUS”.

    7.5 OperationRun the motor at full speed; adjust with lever (L). The compactor now starts to move forward by itself and in normal speed. Working uphill, push the compactor gently forwards. When working downhill, reduce the speed by pulling back.

    WARNINGAt sloping surfaces, first only work uphill. An uphill surface which is easy to cultivate, can also be cultivated downhill in an easy way. The operator of the equipment may never stand in the direction of sliding.

    The slope of the ground surface may never exceed 20°. If this slope is exceeded, the lubrication of the motor is affected which will cause damages on important parts of the motor.

    7.6 Recommendations at compactingMoisture and extremely soft foundations will also result in poor friction. This may increase the risks for accidents.• To achieve optimal compacting, usually 3 – 4 turns are necessary, all depending on moisture,

    grain size and so on. • A foundation which is too wet can never the less be compacted with a good result. Before

    compacting, let the surface dry up. • A surface which is too dry will create much dust at cultivation. Irrigation prior to the cultivation

    will improve the result and reduce the need of cleaning the air filter.

    TAKING INTO OPERATION MAINTENANCE

    Do not use the equipment on concrete and similar hard and tight materials. In such cases the equipment will start to bounce or hammer instead of vibrating which will damage the motor and the plate.

    Compacting with rubber mat (additional accessory)With a rubber mat underneath the plate, damages on paving stones and brick pavers are avoided. When compacting on loosely, granulated foundation, pebble and sand, the rubber mat shall be taken off.

    Compacting without rubber matIf the equipment is used without rubber mat, the kit of bolts for fixing the mat must be put in place to avoid damages on the windings in the plate.

    8. MAINTENANCE

    All maintenance must be carried out with the motor not running.

    Information on how to handle old oil, filters and cleanser, please follow the instructions from the manufacturers.

    Having completed the maintenance work, check that all tools are removed and all safety devices are put back.

    Before starting the motor, check that no one is within the safety area of the equipment.

    type (see technical specifications) to the upper indication “H”. (= lower end of windings in refill hole). Do not overfill!

    • Put back the screw/dip stick and tighten it.

    An oil level which is too low, can damage the motor. This will result in all warranties are void.

    Exchange of motor oil (Fig. 15)• Remove protection frame (I) with bolts and washers.• Let the oil out with the motor still warm. Let it cool down to hand warm temperature• Clean the fill hole (13/2) and the drain hole (12/2).• Put a suitable collecting device under the drainhole screw.• Loosen the air-bleed screw (12/1) 1 – 2 turns to increase the oil flow.• To let the oil out, remove the screws (13/2) and (12/2).

    WARNING Old motor oil must be treated in a way which is environmentally correct. We recommend that old oil is collected in a closed container and handed over to a recycling depot or any other collecting depot for chemicals and oils. Oil may never be disposed of in moldering beds or any other water streams, sewage or earth deposits.

    • Put back the drain screw (12/2) and tighten.• With the motor in horizontal position, refill with recommended type of oil to the upper marking

    H (= lower level of filling hole) on the dip stick. For volyme and type: see Technical Data.

    8.3 Air filterThe air filter (6) consists of two filter parts. Careful cleaning avoids carburetor errors.

    Cleaning and replacement of filters (Fig. 16)• Loosen the wing nut, remove the filter hood (14) and check for holes in it. Replace damaged

    parts. • Dirt on the inside of the hood is removed with a clean cloth.• The inner wing nut is removed and the two filters are lifted out.• Carefully remove the foam rubber section (16) from the paper section (15). Check for

    damages. In such a case: replace!• Clean foam rubber section (16) in warm water and mild soap. Rinse carefully and let dry.
