Improper maintenance can be hazardous. Read and Understand this section before you perform any maintenance, service or repairs. WARNING GENERAL SAFETY 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 machine, consult your supervisor or Altrad Belle. This machine is designed to eliminate the possible risks arising from the use of it. However, risks DO reside, and these residual risks are not clearly recognizable, and may cause personal injury or property damage, and possible death. If such unpredictable and unrecognizable risks become apparent, the machine must be stopped immediately, and operator or his supervisor must take appropriate measure to eliminate such risks. It is sometimes necessary that the manufacturer must be informed of such event for future counter measuring. ALWAYS keep the Operator’s Manual and any other manuals that accompany this machine to hand. Immediately replace any manuals that may have been lost or are now illegible. PRE-START CHECKS The following Pre-start-up inspection must be performed before the start of each work session or after every four hours of use,

1. Thoroughly inspect the machine for signs of damage. Check components are present and secure.

2. ENSURE there is no debris or excessive dirt present on the machine.

3. ENSURE the battery pack is securely attached to power unit and the power cable is connected.

4. ENSUREWKHEDWWHU\SDFNLVVXႈFLHQWO\FKDUJHG

Once all the above checks have been made, test run the machine checking that all switches function correctly and all indicators light when the power unit is turned on. WORKSITES

• ENSURE the operator is familiar with the working surroundings. Worksites can be hazardous.

• ALWAYS keep the work area tidy and clear of any obstructions that may lead to accidents and/or injuries.

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. APPLICATIONS Applications/materials fall into three categories:

the plate instead of compacting. If the moisture content is too high the material may dry out after compaction and shrinkage will occur. 1400 - 1800 kg/m

OPERATING THE MACHINE

Having carried out the Pre-Start Checks listed in the Safety Instructions section of this manual, you may start the power unit. The vibrator will not only cause the baseplate to vibrate but will also cause the machine to travel forward. During normal operation you should not have to push the machine forwards 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 machine’s direction of travel. If necessary, use a suitable rope attached to the machine at a low point on the chassis, to allow a helper to take part of the machine’s weight. Work up and down a slope not across. Work the compactor over the surface in an organised pattern until the required compaction has been achieved.

We RECOMMEND removing the battery pack from the power unit before transporting the machine. CAUTION25 Storage

If the machine is not to be used for an long period of time it must be stored correctly to prevent deterioration or damage occuring during this period. Store the machine in a clean dry building with plenty of ventilation if possible. If you can only store outdoors, cover with a waterproof sheet / tarpaulin.

3. Apply grease to any moving parts / grease points.

4. Examine the machine for any worn / damaged parts. Replace if necessary.

1. Place the machine safely on stable, level ground.

DURING STORAGE To prevent the build up of rust and to minimise the risk of seizures, periodically operate all machine functions during storage.

1. Install a fully charged battery.

2. Start the power unit.

3. Operate all machine functions. ENSURE they all operate correctly.

4. Re-do storage procedure from above.
