  • Page 9: Safety Checks

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Make sure the soil or subsoil to be compacted has a high enough load carrying capacity. Use appropriate protective clothing while working or while carrying out maintenance work. When traveling backwards the operator has to guide the vibration plate laterally by its guide handle so that he will not be squeezed between the handle and a possible obstacle.

    TECHNICAL DATA BPU 3050A Item no. 0008763 ... Advance and reverse travel m/min: Compacted area Operating weight Power transmission From drive engine directly to exciter unit via centrifugal clutch and V-belt Exciter Vibrations (Hz): ca. 5400 (90) Centrifugal force Fuchs Titan Unic 10W40 MC (SAE 10W40)
  • Page 11: Description

    DESCRIPTION Applications The machine is perfectly suited for the compaction of all types of soil including semi-cohesive soils in trench and surface compaction applications as well as for the compaction of asphalt pavements and the vibration of interlocking paving stones. This machine is the most universally deployable machine of this line of products thanks to the optimum balance between the centrifugal force and the contact surface.
  • Page 12: Description Of Function

    DESCRIPTION Description of function The vibration required for compaction is produced by the exciter (5) which is firmly joinded to the lower mass (4). This exciter (5) is designed as a central vibrator with aligned vibrations. Such a principle permits the direc- tion of vibration to be changed by turning the eccentric weights (13).
  • Page 13: Transport To Work Site, Recommendations On Compaction

    TRANSPORT TO WORK SITE, RECOMMENDATIONS ON COMPACTION Transport to work site Conditions: To transport the vibration plate, use only suitable lifting equipment with a minimum load-bearing capacity of 200 kg. Only attach suitable tackle at the central lifting point (15) provided. Always tie down the vibratory plate by the protective frame (14) and latch the center pole in place during transport of the vibratory plate on the loading area of a transport vehicle.

    OPERATION Engine check before starting 1. Oil level check Insert dipstick in oil filler neck, but without screwing in. If oil level is low, fill to the top of the oil filler neck with high grade Fuchs Titan Unic 10W40 MC oil. ATTENTION! Place machine in horizontal position before checking engine oil level.
  • Page 15 OPERATION 3. Pull the throttle lever (6) back slightly. 4. Turn the engine switch to the „I“ position. 5. Pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt, then pull briskly. Caution: Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter.
  • Page 16: Operation The Engine

    OPERATION Operation the engine As the engine warms up, gradually move the choke lever to the OPEN position. Position the throttle lever for the desired engine speed. Oil alert system The oil alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crank- case.
  • Page 17: Stopping The Engine

    OPERATION Stopping the engine To stop the engine in an emergency, turn the engine switch to the „0“ position. Under normal conditions, use the following procedure: 1. Push the throttle lever forward all the way to the stop. 2. Turn the ignition switch to the „0“ position. 3.

    MAINTENANCE Maintenance schedule Check all external screw connections for tight fit approx. 8 hours after first operation. Parts Maintenance jobs Maintenance interval Air filter Check for external damage and tight fit. daily Check filter cartridge, clean or replace if necessary. Fuel tank Check tank lid for tight fit, replace if necessary.
  • Page 19: Engine Oil

    MAINTENANCE Engine oil Check oil level: The engine must be horizontally place when filling in oil or checking the oil level. Check oil level with dip stick (16). If oil level is to low, top up with brand quality oil Fuchs Titan Unic 10W40 MC through oil feed opening (16).
  • Page 20: Hydraulic Control

    MAINTENANCE Hydraulic control Check oil level: 1. Move centre pole into vertical position. 2. Push operating control handle (7) to forward travel position. 3. Open filler bore (17). 4. The oil level must reach the upper edge of the gear; add Fuchs Renolin MR 520 hydraulic fluid if required.
  • Page 21: Fuel Strainer Cup Cleaning

    MAINTENANCE Fuel strainer cup cleaning Turn the fuel valve to Off. Remove the sediment cup and O-ring, and wash them in nonflammable or high flash point solvent. Dry them thoroughly, and reinstall securely. Turn the fuel valve on, and check for leaks. Spark plug Recommended spark plug: BP6ES-11, BPR6ES-11 (NGK), W20EP-U11, W20EPR-U11 (ND).
  • Page 22: Air Filter Service

    MAINTENANCE Air filter service A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburettor. To prevent carburettor malfunction, service the air filter regularly. Service more freqently when operating the engine in extremely dusty areas. Warning: Never use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning the air cleaner element. A fire or ex- plosion could result.
