1. Once the engine has started,  move the engine throttle lever

quickly to the 

fast position.

2. With the throttle lever in the fast position, the engine speed

should be around 2,300 RPM, therefore engaging the cen-
trifugal clutch.

5. Firmly grasp the compactor's handle bar  with both hands,  the

compactor will begin moving forward.

6. Slowly walk behind the compactor and be on the lookout  for

any large objects or foreign matter that might cause damage
to the compactor or bodily injury.

7. Compactor traveling speed may drop on soils which contain

clay, however there may be cases where traveling speed
drops because the compaction plate does not leave the
ground surface easily due to the composition of the soil. To
rectify this problem  do the following:

6. If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever

(Figure 11) to the 

CLOSED position. If the engine has not

started, repeat steps 1 through 5.

7. Before the compactor is put into operation, run the engine for

3-5 minutes.

8.

Check for abnormal engine noises or fuel leaks.

1. Place the

 throttle lever (Figure 12) in slow position, and

listen for the engine speed to decrease.

2. Place the

 Engine ON/OFF switch (Figure 10) in the "OFF"

position.

3. Place the

 fuel valve lever (Figure 9) in the "OFF" position.

1. Move  the

 throttle lever quickly to the slow position, and

place the 

Engine ON/OFF switch in the "OFF " position.

■

Check the bottom plate to see if clay or equivalent material
has been lodged in the plate mechanism. If so, wash with
water and remove.

■

Remember the compactor does not work as efficiently on
clay or soils that have a high moisture content level.

■

If the soil has a high moisture level, dry soil to appropriate
moisture content level or carry out compaction twice.

Make sure to follow all safety rules referenced in the safety
section of this manual before operating compactor.  Keep
work area clear of debris and other objects that could
cause damage  to the compactor or bodily injury.

ALWAYS move the throttle lever quickly without
hesitation, because increasing the engine speed slowly
causes the clutch to slip.

NEVER stop the engine suddenly while working at
high speeds.
