engine, disconnect the spark plug, thoroughly
inspect the machine for any damage, and
repair the damage before restarting and
operating the machine.
Do not overload the machine capacity by 
compacting too deep in a single pass or at too
fast a rate.
Never operate the unit at high transport
speeds on hard or slippery surfaces.
Exercise extreme caution when operating on
or crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay
alert for hidden hazards or traffic. Do not carry
passengers.
Never leave the operating position and leave the 
plate compactor unattended when the engine is 
running.
Always stop the engine when compacting is 
delayed or when walking from one location to
another.
Stay away from the edged of ditches and avoid 
actions that may cause the plate compactor to 
topple over.
Always ascend slopes carefully, in a direct path 
and in reverse to present the plate compactor from 
toppling over onto the operator.
Always park the unit on a firm and level surface 
and shut the tool off.
To reduce exposure to vibration, limit the
hours of operation and take periodic breaks
to minimize repetition and rest your hand.
Reduce the speed and force in which you do
the repetitive movement. Try to fill each day
with jobs where operating hand-held power
equipment is not required.
