2. Pull out the starter rope (B) until resistance is
felt. Release the handle so the starter rope goes
back again, and then pull the starter rope until
the engine starts.
3. Set the throttle in idle position and allow the
engine to idle for a few minutes before increasing
to full power.
If the exhaust begins to emit white smoke, after
several attempts of starting, do the following:
1. Move the throttle control to the stop position.
2. Slowly pull the starting cable out 5 times.
3. Repeat the starting procedure.
Stopping the engine
1. Set the throttle control (A) in idle position. Let the
engine run for a few minutes.
2. Set the throttle control (A) in the stop position.
Operating
NOTICE During operation, the engine must always
work at full throttle (working mode).
NOTICE When operating in narrow trenches, there
is a risk of the rammer leg fastening between the
trench walls. The rammer can then miss-strike and
become damaged. The rammer shoe in particular
could be severely damaged. When operating in
trenches, make sure that they are wide enough
before starting.
♦
Operate the rammer on a level surface.
♦
Never operate on hard surfaces (solid rock,
hardened concrete etc).
♦
Steer the machine with the handle.
♦
Excessive pressure on the handle will result in
poor compaction by obstructing the vibratory
action.
♦
The rammer must not be pressed down into the
material being compacted.
♦
If the machine tips over during operation, switch
off the engine before lifting it up.
