REASSEMBLY
24. Position the vibrating assembly on the exciter seat. When reinstalling the mounting nuts and bolts, apply some
reversible anaerobic threadlocker (e.g. blue Loctite ®) to the bolt threads, and use the torque wrench to
tighten the nuts to 147.5 ft-lbs (200 Nm).
25. Reinstall the exciter seat and vibrating assembly on the bottom plate. When reinstalling the mounting bolts,
apply some threadlocker to the bolt threads, and use the torque wrench to tighten the nuts to 60.5 ft-lbs (82
Nm).
26. Reposition the engine assembly and support plate on the shock absorbers. Thread the belt through the slot in
the support plate. Tip the engine assembly up and install the belt on the clutch pulley (see Fig. 4). Tip the
assembly down and use a socket or wrench to tighten the lock nuts removed in step 6.
1. TIP: if you’re having trouble using this technique, use the screwdriver technique (step 4.) to work the belt
back onto the pulley.
27. Replace the belt cover and mounting bolts. When reinstalling the mounting bolts, apply some threadlocker to
the bolt threads, and use the torque wrench to tighten the bolts to 20.6 ft-lbs (28 Nm).
28. Reinstall the handles and all mounting nuts and bolts. Use a socket or wrench to tighten them.
29. Make sure all fasteners are fully tightened. Start your plate compactor according to the instructions in your
manual.
