fuel tank indoors. Keep grounded conductive
objects, such as tools, away from exposed,
live electrical parts and connections to avoid
sparking or arcing. These events could ignite
fumes or vapors. Always stop the engine and
allow it to cool before filling the fuel tank.
Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add
fuel while the engine is running or when the
engine is hot. Do not operate the machine with
known leaks in the fuel system. Loose the fuel
tank cap slowly to relieve any pressure in the
■ MACHINE USE AND CARE
Never pick up or carry a machine while the
engine is running. Do not force the machine.
Use the correct machine for your application.
The correct machine will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed. Do
not change the engine governor settings or
over-speed the engine. The governor controls
the maximum safe operating speed of the
engine. Do not run the engine at a high speed
when you are not compacting. Do not put
hands or feet near rotating parts. Avoid con-
tact with hot fuel, oil, exhaust fumes and hot
surfaces. Do not touch the engine or muffler.
These parts get extremely hot from operation.
They remain hot for a short time after you turn
■ SERVICE
Before cleaning, repair, inspecting, or adjus-
ting shut off the engine and make certain all
moving parts have stopped. Always make
sure the engine switch is in its "OFF" position.
To avoid injury, keep hands, fingers and feet
away from the base plate. Grip the handle of
the plate compactor firmly with both hands. If
both hands are holding the handle and your
feet are clear of the compactor base, your
hands, fingers and feet can not be injured by
the compactor base. Always operate the ma-
chine from behind, never pass or stand in front
of the machine when the engine is running.
Never place tools or any other item under the
plate compactor. If the unit strikes a foreign
object, stop the engine, disconnect the spark
plug, thoroughly inspect the machine for any
damage, and repair the damage before rest-

Paving Pad Kit
The transparent rubber paving pad allows to
compact concrete slabs, stones, bricks and
blocks silently and gently.
Attach the paving pad onto the base plate
as shown. Align the holes in the base plate,
paving pad and clamp plate, and secure it with
bolts, spring washers and flat washers.
tank. Never overfill fuel tank (there should be
no fuel above the upper limit mark) Replace
all fuel tank and container caps securely and
wipe up spilled fuel. Never operate the unit
without the fuel cap securely in place. Avoid
creating a source of ignition for spilled fuel. If
fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engi-
ne but move the machine away from the area
of spillage and avoid creating any source of
ignition until fuel vapors have dissipated. Store
fuel in containers specifically designed and
off the unit. Allow the engine to cool before
doing maintenance or making adjustments. If
the machine should start to make an unusual
noise or vibration, immediately shut off the
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and
check for the cause. Unusual noise or vibra-
tion is generally warning of trouble. Use only
attachments and accessories approved by the
manufacturer. Failure to do so can result in
personal injury. Maintain the machine. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the machine's operation. If
damaged, have the machine repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly

wire away from the plug to prevent acciden-

arting and operating the machine. Do not over-
load the machine capacity by compacting too
deep in a single pass or at too fast a rate. Ne-
ver 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 edge of ditches and avoid actions that may

well-ventilated area, safely away from sparks,
open flames or other sources of ignition. Ne-
ver store fuel or machine with fuel in the tank

muffler free of grass, leaves, excessive grease
or carbon build up to reduce the chance of
a fire hazard. Never douse or squirt the unit
with water or any other liquid. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from debris. Clean after
each use. Observe proper disposal laws and
regulations for gas, oil, etc. to protect the en-

cause the plate compactor to topple over. Al-
ways ascend slopes carefully, in a direct path
and in reverse to prevent the plate compactor
from toppling over onto the operator.
Always park the unit on a firm and level sur-
face 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.
