Component Material Operator Handle Steel Hand Grip Rubber Base Plate Steel Eccentric weights Steel Petrol engine housing Aluminium Petrol engine covers Synthetic material Various parts Steel & Aluminium Soil, which has been disturbed or new inÚ ll, subbase and blacktop, will have small voids or air pockets which, if not compacted, will lead to one or more problems occurring. 1. As trafÚ c crosses the surface of an uncompacted area, the material is compressed. This leads to subsidence of the top surface as the material Ú lls the voids.

2. A similar situation occurs with static loads on uncompacted ground. The load (e.g. a building) will sink.

3. Materials with voids are more susceptible to water seepage, leading to erosion. Water ingress may also cause the soil to expand during freezing temperatures and contract during dry spells. Expansion and contraction is a major cause of damage to building foundations and normally leads to the structure requiring underpinning. Compaction increases the density of the material and therefore increases its load bearing capacity. Reduces air voids and therefore reduces the risk of subsidence, expansion and contraction, due to ingress of water.

Various methods have been employed in the past to specify the compaction required for various applications. The factors to consider are, material properties, layer thickness, pressure applied, vibration and number of passess. Greater understanding of how compaction works has lead to new compaction speciÚ cations being introduced. The most up to date speciÚ cation is part of the U.K.’s NRSWA (New Roads & Street Works Act). Civil Engineers are now adopting these speciÚ cations to ensure good compaction for all site work. NRSWA (HAUC speci cation). The speciÚ cation was compiled by HAUC (Highways Authorities & Utilities Committee). The ‘New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, set a new standard for road repairs and reinstatements in the UK. It covers materials, methods, equipment and safety when carrying out reinstatements on roads and footways. The reason for the act is to ensure repairs and reinstatements are carried out to a higher standard and ultimately last longer. This in turn will reduce the need for costly remedial work and reduce trafÚ c delays. There are two categories speciÚ ed for plate compactors.

1. 1400 to 1800kg/m² 2. Over 1800kg/m²

These Ú gures relate to the static pressure applied by the machine9 Safety Instructions Applications Applications/materials fall into three categories:1. Cohesive materials (less than 20% granular) e.g clay, silt & heavy soils.2. Granular materials (more than 20% granular) e.g hard core, sand & light soils.3. Bituminous materials e.g asphalt (tarmac), cold lay (bitumin emulsion products). The chart shows the HAUC speciÚ cations for layer depth and number of passes for Dual Force’ plates. If standard machines are used, optimum compaction can not be guaranteed, however, if layer depths are reduced and number of passes increased, results can be improved. Moisture content of cohesive & granular materials is critical to effective compaction. If granular material is too dry it will ï ow around the plate instead of compacting. If the moisture content is too high the material may dry out after compaction and shrinkage will occur.

• Usually placed in 100mm minimum layer so not speciÚ ed by HAUC.** The nature of cohesive materials makes plate compaction difÚ cult. Optimum compaction is not guaranteed and not recommended by HAUC.

For your own personal protection and for the safety of those around you, please read and ensure you fully understand the following safety information. It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that he/she fully understands how to operate this equipment safely. If you are unsure about the safe and correct use of the ‘PCEL 320X’ Plate compactor, consult your supervisor or Belle Group. Fuel Safety.• Before refuelling, switch off the engine and allow it to cool.• When refuelling, DO NOT smoke or allow naked ï ames in the area.• Spilt fuel must be made safe immediately, using sand.

Always wear a mask that is suited to the type of dust being produced. Fuel. Do not ingest fuel or inhale fuel vapors and avoid contact with your skin. Wash fuel splashes immediately. If you get fuel in your eyes, irrigate with copious amounts of water and seek medical attention as soon as possible. Exhaust Fumes. Do not operate your ‘PCEL 320X’ indoors or in a conÚ ned space, make sure the work area is adequately ventilated. The exhaust fumes produced by this equipment are highly toxic and can kill! WARNING Pre start-up inspection. The following Pre-start-up inspection must be performed before the start of each work session or after every four hours of use, whichever is Ú rst. Please refer to the service section for detailed guidance. If any fault is discovered, the ‘PCEL 320X’ must not be used until the fault is rectiÚ ed. 1. Thoroughly inspect the ‘PCEL 320X’ for signs of damage. Make sure that the belt guard is secure before using the machine.

2. Check hoses, Ú ller openings, drain plugs and any other areas for signs of leakage. Fix any leaks before operating.

3. Check the engine oil level and top up as necessary.

4. Check the engine fuel level and top up as necessary.

5. Check for fuel and oil leaks.

Operating Instructions

• Take the compactor to where it is required. Where it is necessary to use lifting equipment to position the ‘PCEL 320X’, make sure the lifting equipment has a WLL (Working Load Limit) suitable for the ‘PCEL 320X’s weight (see Technical Data section or machine serial plate). Attach suitable chains or slings ONLY to the lifting point on the top of the ‘PCEL 320X’.

• NEVER leave the engine running whilst transporting or moving the ‘PCEL 320X’, even if it is only a short distance.

• Having carried out the checks listed in the ‘pre start’ section, you may start the engine. The Belle Group ‘PCEL 320X’ range of compactors are Ú tted with a centrifugal clutch, this allows the engine to run at idle without driving the vibrator. As the engine speed is increased the clutch will engage and will drive the vibrator. For correct operation, the engine speed should be set to maximum.

• Set the throttle to maximum and use the control handle to steer or turn the ‘PCEL 320X’. The vibrator will not only cause the baseplate to vibrate but will also cause it to travel forward. During normal operation you should not have to push the ‘PCEL 320X’ but allow it to travel at its own pace. The speed of travel will be determined by the condition of the surface being compacted. If the surface to be compacted is on a slope, great care must be taken when controlling the ‘PCEL 320X’s direction of travel. If necessary, use a suitable rope attached to the ‘PCEL 320X’ at a low point on the chassis, to allow a helper to take part of the ‘PCEL 320X’s weight. Work up and down a slope not across.

• Work the ‘PCEL 320X’ over the surface in an organized pattern until the required compaction has been achieved. Where there are a number of different layers to be compacted on top of each other, compact each layer individually.11 Operating Instructions
