DANGER

„NEVER operate the equipment in an explosive atmosphere or near combustible materials.An explosion or fire could result causing severe bodily harm or even death.

WARNING

„NEVER disconnect any emergency or safety devices. These devices are intended for operator safety. Disconnection of these devices can cause severe injury, bodily harm or even death. Disconnection of any of these devices will void all warranties.

CAUTION

„NEVER lubricate components or attempt service on a running machine.

NOTICE

„ALWAYS keep the machine in proper running condition.

„Fix damage to machine and replace any broken parts immediately.

„ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.

ENGINE SAFETY

DANGER

„The engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can cause death if inhaled.

„The engine of this equipment requires an adequate free flow of cooling air. NEVER operate this equipment in any enclosed or narrow

area where free flow of the air is restricted. If the air

flow is restricted it will cause injury to people and property and serious damage to the equipment or engine.

WARNING

„DO NOT place hands or fingers inside engine compartment when engine is running.

„NEVER operate the engine with heat shields or guards removed.

„ Keep fingers, hands hair and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury.

„DO NOT remove the radiator cap while the

engine is hot. High pressure boiling water will gush out of the radiator and severely scald any persons in the general area of the compactor.

„ DO NOT remove the coolant drain plug while the engine is hot. Hot coolant will gush out of the coolant tank and severely scald any persons in the general area of the compactor.

„DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot. Hot oil will gush out of the oil tank and severely scald any persons in the general area of the compactor.

CAUTION

„NEVER touch the hot exhaust manifold,

muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool before servicing equipment.

NOTICE

„NEVER run engine without an air filter or with a dirty air filter. Severe engine damage may occur. Service air filter frequently to prevent engine malfunction.

„NEVER tamper with the factory settings of the engine or engine governor. Damage to the engine or equipment can result

if operating in speed ranges above the maximum allowable.

„NEVER tip the engine to extreme angles during lifting as it may cause oil to gravitate into the cylinder head, making the engine start difficult.

MVH306GH specifications

The Multiquip MVH306GH is a versatile, heavy-duty vibratory plate compactor designed for a variety of soil and asphalt compaction applications in construction and landscaping. This powerful machine is built to deliver optimal performance while ensuring operator comfort and ease of use.

One of the main features of the MVH306GH is its robust Honda GX160 engine, which provides reliable power and high efficiency. The engine generates sufficient force to achieve deep compaction in different soil types, including clay, sand, and gravel. With its ability to produce 3,600 vibrations per minute, the MVH306GH ensures that the compaction is uniform, reducing the likelihood of future settlement in the compacted material.

Another noteworthy feature of the MVH306GH is its durable construction. The compactor is constructed with a heavy-duty steel plate that can withstand the rigors of daily use on construction sites. Its high-quality build guarantees longevity and reduces the need for frequent maintenance. The unit is also equipped with a foldable handle, which enhances its portability and storage, especially in tight spaces.

Comfort and usability are paramount in the design of the MVH306GH. The machine features an ergonomic vibration-dampened handle that minimizes operator fatigue during prolonged use. This design consideration allows operators to work efficiently without experiencing discomfort, leading to increased productivity on the job site.

The MVH306GH is also equipped with a reliable water tank, allowing for the added benefit of wet compaction, which is essential when working on asphalt. The ability to use water helps to bond materials together, resulting in a more stable and durable surface.

In terms of technology, the MVH306GH features an advanced vibration system that optimizes the compactor's performance. This system helps in achieving maximum compaction density while minimizing the likelihood of over-compaction that can lead to future cracking or damage.

Overall, the Multiquip MVH306GH vibratory plate compactor is an ideal choice for contractors looking for a powerful, efficient, and user-friendly solution for their compaction needs. With its impressive features, durable construction, and thoughtful design, this machine proves to be a valuable asset in any construction or landscaping project.
