15.3.1
Checking the engine oil level
Too low an oil level will damage the engine and shorten the life of the machine.
Therefore, check the engine oil level before every start and top up the engine oil if
necessary.
15.3.2
Checking the fuel tank level
Observe the safety regulations for fuel control.
Filter the fuel during refuelling to prevent foreign particles from entering the
combustion chamber. Wipe up leaked fuel.
Screw on the tank cap (sits on the fuel tank).
Level check in the form of a visual inspection. If necessary, top up with fuel with the
appropriate octane number (RON 95).
Close the fuel filler cap tightly after refuelling.

OPERATION
Save the working environment before you start compressing.
Only put the machine into operation after you have read and understood the safety
instructions and carried out the necessary measures before initial commissioning.
The correct moisture content of the soil is very important for correct compaction.
Compaction of dry materials is facilitated by moistening the material. Too much moisture, on
the other hand, leaves water-filled cavities which weaken the load-bearing capacity of the
soil.
Wetness or excessive irrigation can lead to overloading and engine death.

N O T E
To check the engine oil level, place the machine
on a safe, level surface. Switch off the engine and
allow the machine to stand for ten minutes so
that the circulating oil can collect in the oil pan.
Unscrew the oil dipstick and wipe with a clean,
lint-free cloth or a non-fibrous paper towel (1).
Push the dipstick into the opening, but do not
screw it in (2). (Make sure that the dipstick has
really been pushed in completely).
Pull out the oil dipstick again and read off the oil
level. There are two markings for this - see
illustration on the left.
If the oil level is low, refill the recommended oil
up to the upper edge (maximum filling volume:
approx. 0.5 litres).
Push in the oil dipstick again and tighten.
