  • Page 24: Description Of Function

    Description Description of function 2.3.1 The vibration required for compaction is produced by the exciter (13) which is firmly joined to the lower mass (5). This exciter (13) 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 (15).
  • Page 25 Description 2.3.3 The centrifugal clutch (11) interrupts flow of power to the exciter (13) at low engine speed and thus permits perfect idling of the drive engine (1). 2.3.4 The automatic V-belt pulley (10) combined with the centrifugal clutch (11) ensures optimum tension of the exciter V-belt (12) during operation and relief of the tension of the exciter V-belt (12) when the machine is being relocated or transported.
