- DO NOT modify the machine without the prior consent of the manufacturer. We do not
assume responsibility for any accident due to equipment modification.
- NEVER operate the machine for any purpose for which it is not intended.
-Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death. Beware of uneven or slippery
work surface. Make sure to maintain firm balance when operating under such condi-
tions. Especially care when working in the vicinity of unprotected holes or excavations.
-NEVER allow any person to operate the machine without adequate instruction.
-ENSURE all operators read, understand and follow the operation instructions.
-Serious injury could result from improper or careless use of the machine.
-Plate compactors are heavy units and should be positioned by two people with appro-
priate strength, using the liing handle provided with the machine according to the
correct liing techniques.
-Plate Compactor may only be used for compaction jobs.
-DO NOT operate the machine unless all protective guards are in place.
-ENSURE that the engine switch is in the OFF position and the spark plug ignition lead is
disconnected before removing the guards or making adjustments.
-ENSURE both the machine and the operator are stable by setting up on level terrain so
that the machine will not tip over, slide o or fall while in operation or unattended.
-DO NOT leave the machine in operation, while it is unattended.
-DO NOT pull the machine backward with transportation wheels, it can only be pushed
forward.
-ENSURE that the soil or subsoil to be compacted has enough load carrying capacity.
-ENSURE that the area to be compacted does not contain any “live” electrical cables,
gas, or water, which may be damaged by the action of vibration.
-Exposure to vibration or repetitive work actions may be harmful to hands and arms.
-NEVER stand on the machine while it is operating.
-Be careful and DO NOT come in contact with the muler when the engine is hot, it can
cause severe burns.
-ENSURE that the repairs to the engine and machine are carried out by competent per-
sonnel.
-DO NOT use the machine near flammable material or in explosive environments.

-ENSURE that the petrol is only stored in an approved storage container.
-DO NOT refuel the engine while it is in operation or hot.
-DO NOT operate or refuel the engine in a confined area without adequate ventilation.
-DO NOT refuel the engine in the vicinity of sparks, a naked flame or smoking.
-DO NOT overfill the fuel tank and avoid spilling petrol when refueling. Spilled petrol or
petrol vapor may ignite. If spillage occurs, ensure that the area is dry before starting the
motor.
-ENSURE that the fuel tank cap is securely fitted aer refueling.
-Carbon monoxide exhaust gases from engine driven units can cause death in confined
spaces.
-ALWAYS wear approved hearing protection, as excessive noise can lead to temporary or
permanent loss of hearing.
-Protective goggles and a dust mask should be worn when working in a dusty environ-
ment. Protective clothing and footwear may also be desirable when working with hot
mix bitumen.
-Store the machine properly in a clean, dry place.
1.3 Operator Safety while using Internal Combustion Engines
-DO NOT smoke when refueling the engine or operating the machine.
-DO NOT refuel a hot or running engine.
-ALWAYS keep away from all hot or spark-generating objects when refueling the engine.

ronment.
-DO NOT spill fuel when refueling the engine.
-ALWAYS take care to use the right type of fuel.
-ALWAYS inspect the fuel leakage regularly.
-NEVER perform any work on the machine while it is running. Before working on it, stop
the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting.
-Avoid prolonged breathing of exhaust gases.
-ALWAYS transport and handle fuel only when contained in approved safety containers.
-Avoid touching or leaning against hot exhaust pipes.
-Allow engine to cool before performing any repairs or service.

2.5 To Start
2.5 .1 Diesel Engine
1. Oil filling and level inspections must be carried out with the engine on a flat surface.
2. Remove oil filter cap, pour the oil in and reassemble oil cap.
3. Make sure that it is nearly at max., fit the dipstick correctly back in place.
4. Check and refill oil up to the maximum level.
5. Should start-up be diicult, purge air from union as indicated in the figure.
6. Do not fill the fuel tank completely, but just up to 1cm (0.39 in) from the top of the
tank, to provide space for fuel movement. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine before
starting.
7. Remove fuel tank cap. Pour the fuel and reassemble fuel tank cap. With low ambient
temperatures (-10°C) add specific additives to diesel fuel, to avoid paraine crystals
solidification.
8. To eliminate any possible water and dirt residue from the tank bottom, remove the
plug (A) and open the cock (B) to enable discharging. Once the operation is over, close
the cock and screw back the protecting plug.
9. Accelerator at 50% speed.
