Vibratory plate compactors Operation manual
Starting and stopping the engine is described in detail in the attached instruction manual Honda
engine.
4.2. Operating the machine
Run the machine across the area to be compacted, keeping slightly overlapping lanes. For good
compaction, it is recommended to do 4 travels in each lane.
For soil compaction, the best results will be reached when compacting by layers, each layer not thicker
than 20-30 cm of loose soil, depending on the type of soil.
Approximate compaction effect for compaction to 90% (95%) of Proctor Standard is shown in the
following table. For exact control of the degree of compaction, some method of compaction measurement
must be used.
4.3. Turning the engine OFF
1. Set up the throttle control leer into the idle position. The centrifugal clutch gets disengaged and
vibration will stop.
