6 Setup and function
6.1 Standard package
The standard package includes:
Drive motor.
Shoulder strap.
Operator’s manual.
The HMS consists of several components, see chapter Technical Data:
Drive motor.
Flexible shaft (optional).
Vibrator head (optional).
6.2 Application
Only use the equipment in accordance with the intended purpose, see chapter Safety, Use in
accordance with the intended purpose.
6.3 Application area
The drive motor may only be used for the operation of flexible shafts and vibrator heads.
You can use the combined HMS for the following activities:
Compaction of freshly mixed (green) concrete.
6.4 Mode of operation
Principle
The drive motor drives the vibrator head via the flexible shaft, which generates high frequency vibrations.
The vibrator head makes gyrations due to these vibrations.
The immersion of the vibrator head in the freshly mixed (green) concrete de-aerates and compacts the
concrete in the operating area of the vibrator head.
At the same time, the freshly mixed (green) concrete cools the vibrator head.
NOTICE
The components that are marked as "optional" must be ordered separately. You can find
information about the assembly of an HMS in the chapter Permissible combinations.
NOTICE
The concrete is being compacted as long as air bubbles are rising.
