OPERATION

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.

OPERATION

CAUTION — Follow Safety Rules

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.

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 centrifugal clutch.

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

3.Firmly grasp the compactor's handle bar with both hands, the compactor will begin moving forward.

4.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.

5.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:

„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.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

CAUTION — Stopping the Engine

NEVER stop the engine suddenly while working at high speeds.

Normal Shutdown

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.

Emergency Shutdown

1.Move the throttle lever quickly to the slow position, and place the Engine ON/OFF switch in the "OFF " position.

MVC-82VH, MVC-82VHW specifications

The Multiquip MVC-82VHW and MVC-82VH are advanced walk-behind vibratory plate compactors, designed for efficient soil compaction in various construction and landscaping applications. These models combine robust engineering with cutting-edge technologies, making them ideal for both professionals and contractors.

The MVC-82VHW is powered by a reliable Honda GX160 engine, delivering impressive performance with minimal vibration. This model stands out due to its built-in water tank system, which allows for the effective compaction of asphalt while reducing the risk of material sticking to the base plate. Furthermore, the MVC-82VHW features an easy-to-use hand throttle, allowing operators to adjust the engine speed on the fly to suit specific job requirements.

On the other hand, the MVC-82VH is equipped with a durable Robin Subaru engine, known for its impressive torque and fuel efficiency. Both models feature a heavy-duty, high-quality steel frame that is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use on tough job sites. Their compact design allows for easy transportation and maneuverability, even in confined spaces.

A key characteristic of both models is their high-frequency vibration technology. This feature ensures optimal compaction in a variety of soil types, from granular to cohesive materials. The MVC-82s provide an operating frequency that allows them to achieve excellent compaction depth, making them a valuable asset for construction sites, road repairs, and landscaping tasks.

User comfort is also a significant consideration in the design of the MVC-82 series. The machines are outfitted with padded handles, which reduce operator fatigue during prolonged use. Additionally, the low center of gravity design enhances stability and control, allowing operators to handle challenging terrains with confidence.

In summary, the Multiquip MVC-82VHW and MVC-82VH compactors are exceptional machines that deliver superior performance and durability. With powerful engines, high-frequency vibration technology, and user-centric design features, these models are ideal for maximizing efficiency in compaction tasks across various job sites. They represent an investment in quality and reliability, setting a standard in the compacting equipment market. Whether for asphalt or soil compaction, these machines make the job easier and more efficient.
