maintenance

General maintenance practices are crucial to the performance and longevity of your compactor. This equipment requires routine cleaning, inspection and lubrication. Reference Table 5 and Table 6 for scheduled engine and compactor maintenance.

The following procedures, devoted to maintenance, can prevent serious compactor damage or malfunctioning.

NOTICE

Reference HONDA engine manual supplied with your compactor for more detailed engine maintenance and troubleshooting.

CAUTION

ALWAYS allow the engine to cool before servicing. NEVER attempt any maintenance work on a hot engine.

CAUTION

ALWAYS disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and secure away from the engine before performing maintenance or adjustments on the machine.

WARNING

Some maintenance operations may require the engine to be run. Ensure that the maintenance area is well ventilated. Gasoline engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can cause unconsciousness and may result in DEATH

General Cleanliness

Clean the compactor daily. Remove all dust and debris buildup (mud, clay etc.). If the compactor is steam-cleaned, ensure that lubrication is accomplished AFTER steam cleaning.

NOTICE

Inspection and other services should always be carried out on hard and level ground with the engine shutdown.

NOTICE

The inspection intervals listed in the maintenance tables are for operation under normal conditions. Adjust your inspection intervals based on the number hours plate compactor is in use, and particular working conditions.
