Compactor Components

Figure 3 illustrates the location of the major components for the MVH-304DSB Reversible Plate Compactor. The function of each component is described below:

1.

Hand Grip – When operating the compactor use this hand

 

grip to manuever the compactor.

2.

Forward & Reverse Lever – Push the lever forward, the

 

compactor will move in a forward direction, pull the lever

 

backwards, the compactor will move in backwards direction.

 

Placing the lever in the middle (midway) will cause the

 

compactor not to move (neutral).

3.

Handle Bar – When operating the compactor, this handle

 

is to be in the downward position. When the compactor is

 

to be stored, move the handle bar to the upright position.

4.Guard Hook - Used to lift the machine with crane or other lifting device.

5.Stopper - Locks the handle in place in the upward postion for stowing.

6. Engine – This plate compactor uses a YANMAR L100EE- DEVMK3 diesel engine. Refer to the owner’s manual for engine information and related topics.

7.Battery - Maintenance-free type requiring no electrode replenishment.

8.

Belt Cover – Remove this cover to gain access to the V-

 

belts. NEVER run the compactor without the V-belt cover.If

 

the V-belt cover is not installed, the possibility exist that

 

your hand may get caught between the V-belt and clutch,

 

thus causing serious injury and bodily harm.

9.

Base Plate – Designed to compact sand, clay, and asphalt.

10.

Oil Tank – Fill with proper grade of diesel engine oil.

11. Vibration Case – Encloses the eccentric, gears and counter weights.

12. Hydraulic Cylinder – Activated by moving the travel lever. The cylinder controls the direction of movement by the plate compactor.

13. Shock Absorber – Protects plate compactor from damage by absorbing vibration durring operation.

14.Throttle Lever – Controls speed of the plate compactor. Place straight vertically to start, push fully counter-clockwise for full throttle and fully clockwise to stop plate compactor.
