  • Page 22: Description

    Description Description Max. admissible inclination Description of function 2.2.1 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 23 Description Forwards Standstill Reverse 2.2.2 The drive engine (1) anchored to the upper mass (4) drives the exciter (13). The torque is transmitted by means of a friction connection through the centrifugal clutch (11) and the exciter V-belt (12). 2.2.3 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).

    Transport to work site /Recommendations on compaction Transport to work site /Recommendations on compaction Warning Improper use can result in injury or serious material damage. ∗ Read and follow all the safety instructions at the beginning of this operator's manual, see chapter Safety information. Transport to work site Danger Danger of fire and explosions by fuel!
  • Page 25 Transport to work site /Recommendations on compaction ∗ Only attach suitable tackle at the central lifting point (16) provided. The central lifting point is located exactly above the centre of gravity of the machine. The central lifting point can be displaced rearwards (18), given an application in which the height of the machine is of importance (torque wrench setting = 85 Nm).

  • Page 26: Recommendations On Compaction

    Transport to work site /Recommendations on compaction Recommendations on compaction 3.2.1 Ground conditions The max. compaction depth depends on several factors relating to the ground condition, such as moisture, grain distribution etc, it is therefore not possible to specify exact values. Recommendation: In each case determine the max.
