Ⅶ. OPERATION GENERAL OPERATION The machine is best suited to the compaction of bituminous and granular materials e.g. granular soils, gravels and sands or mixtures of both. Cohesive soils such as silt and clay are best compacted using the impact force produced by a vibrating rammer. Where possible the site should be graded and leveled before commencing compaction.
If there is excess belt play. There could be a decrease in the impact force or erratic vibration, causing machine damage. 1-4. Check the engine oil level and if the engine oil lever is low, it should be refilled. Use the proper motor oil as suggested in the table below.
7.3 STARTING Gasoline Engine 3-1. Turn the STOP SWITCH clock-wise to the position “I”(ON) (Fig-3) 3-2.Open the fuel cock. (Fig-4) 3-3.
