Inspection and Maintenance ServiceTables.

To make sure your plate compactor is always in good working condition before using, carry out the maintenance inspection in accordance with Tables 5 through 7.

Daily Service

zCheck for leakage of fuel or oil.

zCheck for loose screws including tightness. See Table 7 below (tightening torque ), for retightening:

zRemove soil and clean the bottom of compaction plate.

zCheck hydraulic pump, piping and hose for any leakage. A loosened hydraulic hose can be a cause for leakage. Check hydraulic hose connections with wrench applied for tightness.

zCheck engine oil, see Inspection section.

These inspection intervals are for

NOTE operation under normal conditions. Adjust your inspection intervals based on the number hours plate compactor is in use, and particular working conditions.
