MAINTENANCE
STORING THE PLATE COMPACTOR:
If the unit is being stored for short periods of time (30 to 60 days), then when taking the unit out of storage, add
gasoline and fuel stabilizer in the proper ratio to the tank until the tank is full.
NOTE: Filling the tank reduces the amount of air in the tank and helps reduce deterioration of fuel. Run the
engine for 5 – 10 minutes allowing stabilized fuel mixture to circulate through the carburetor.
When storing the plate compactor for extended periods of time:
• Drain the fuel tank and the carburetor.
• Change oil.
• Do not obstruct any ventilation openings.
• Keep the plate compactor in a cool dry area.
When transporting plate compactor:
• Tighten fuel cap. Drain the fuel tank if possible.
• Keep the plate compactor upright. Never place plate compactor side down. Doing so will make it difficult to
start.
CAUTION: Never place any type of storage cover on the plate compactor while it is still hot.
