3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
This machine has been built according to the state-
of-the-art in compliance with the pertinent rules.
Nevertheless, these machines can still constitute a
hazard to persons and property if:
Not used for the intended purpose.
Not operated by suitably qualified and
instructed personnel.
Modified or converted in an improper
manner.
The pertinent safety regulations are not
observed.
For this reason, any person entrusted with the

Country-specific regulations.
3.2 DESCRIPTION
The RP522 and RP652 are reversible vibrating
plates operating on the basis of the twin-shaft
vibration system principle.
The engine drives the exciter on the baseplate via a
centrifugal clutch and a V-belt. The exciter
produces the vibration required for compaction as a
result of the built-in imbalance.
The machine is guided at the tow-bar grip. It is
operated with the operating controls on the tow-bar.
TAKE GREAT CARE ON DOWNSLOPES. THE
MACHINE COULD SLIP DUE TO LOOSE
MATERIAL OR IF THE SURFACE IS
SLIPPERY. DO NOT WORK ON HARD
CONCRETE OR SET ASPHALT SURFACING.
