External vibrators Maintenance Regular maintenance is required in order for the machine to operate properly and reliably over time. Neglected maintenance work can make the machine dangerous to use. Strictly observe the prescribed maintenance intervals. Do not use the machine if it requires maintenance or repairs. Malfunctions If you detect a malfunction, you must shut down and secure the machine immediately.
External vibrators Operator's controls Always keep the operator's controls of the machine dry, clean and free of oil or grease. The function of the operator's controls must not be manipulated or rendered ineffective. Cleaning Always keep the machine clean and be sure to clean it each time you have finished using it.
External vibrators Work recommendations Please observe the recommendations below: Work only if you are in a good physical condition. Work attentively, particularly as you finish. Do not operate the machine when you are tired. Carry out all work calmly, circumspectly and carefully. Never operate the machine under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
External vibrators Operating safety Work environment Familiarize yourself with your work environment before you start work. This includes e.g. the following items: Obstacles in the work and traffic area. The load-carrying capacity of the ground. The measures needed to cordon off the construction site from public traffic. The measures needed to secure walls and ceilings.

External vibrators Electric power supply with residual current protective device (42 V AC) Note: The rated voltage is indicated on the nameplate of your machine. The machine may only be connected to an electric power supply with all machine parts in proper working condition: Mains plug.
Page 11
External vibrators Protecting the power cable Do not use the power cable to pull or lift the machine. Do not unplug the mains cable by pulling on the cable. Protect the mains cable from heat, oil and sharp edges. If the power cable is damaged or the plug is loose, have it replaced immediately by your WACKER representative.

Description Description Operating range ∗ for AR 36... with 6000 vibrations per minute To be used in pre-cast concrete factories for the vibration of forms of all kinds as well as for installation on vibrating tables, vibrating blocks, and machines. In building construction and civil engineering to be used as form vibrators in all pre-cast concrete factories to fit planks, plates, etc.
Description Description of function Fastening clamps are available as accessories for the fastening of the equipment to concrete molds or formwork (shutterings). Note The form, resp. mould material has to have perfect connections and closures, which might have to be reinforced for the best possible transmission of vibration, otherwise increased current consumption or mechanical damage may result from overload of the external vibrator.
Eccentric Eccentric The eccentric weights of these machines consist of various 1,5 mm thick discs. These discs are fixed on the shaft (at both ends of the shaft) and all of them are assembled either in one direction (position 1) or at an angle of 120°...
