GENERAL INFORMATION
DEFINITION OF PLATE COMPACTOR
The Mikasa MVC-82VH/VHW is a walk-behind, one-way
plate compactor designed for the compaction of sand,
mixed soils and asphalt. This plate compactor is a powerful
compacting tool capable of applying a tremendous force
in consecutive high frequency vibrations to a soil surface.
Its applications include compacting for road, embankments
and reservoirs as well as backfilling for gas pipelines, water
pipelines and cable installation work.
VIBRATORY PLATES
The vibratory plates of the MVC-80VH/VHW produce low
amplitude high frequency vibrations, designed to compact
granular soils and asphalt.
The resulting vibrations cause forward motion. The engine
and handle are vibration isolated from the vibrating plate.
FREQUENCY/SPEED
The compactor's vibrating plate has a frequency range of
5600 vpm (vibrations per minute). The travel speed of the
compactor is approximately 82 ft./minute (25 meters/
minute).
ENGINE
The Mikasa MVC-82VH/VHW Plate Compactor is equipped
with a Honda GX160U1SM12 gasoline engine.
CONTROLS
Before starting the MVC-82VH/VHW Plate Compactor,
identify and understand the function of the controls and
components.

The engine (Figure 2) must be checked for proper
lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to
the manufacturer's engine manual for instructions and
details of operation and servicing.
1.Fuel Filler Cap – Remove this cap to add unleaded
gasoline to the fuel tank. Make sure cap is tightened
securely. DO NOT over fill.

7.Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from
8.Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system.
DANGER — Explosive Fuel Hazard
Adding fuel to the tank should be done
only when the engine is stopped and has
had an opportunity to cool down. In the
event of a fuel spill, DO NOT attempt to
start the engine until the fuel residue has
been completely wiped up, and the area surrounding
the engine is dry.

Operating the engine without an air filter,
with a damaged air filter, or a filter in need
of replacement will allow dirt to enter the
engine, causing rapid engine wear.

operating. NEVER operate the engine
with the muffler removed.

BEFORE STARTING
INSPECTION
1.Read safety instructions at the
beginning of manual.
2.Clean the compactor, removing
dirt and dust, particularly the
engine cooling air inlet,
carburetor and air cleaner.
3.Check the air filter for dirt and dust. If air filter is dirty,
replace air filter with a new one as required.
4.Check carburetor for external dirt and dust. Clean with
dry compressed air.
5.Check fastening nuts and bolts for tightness. Loosened
screws or bolts due to vibration, could lead to
unexpected accident.
ENGINE OIL CHECK
1.To check the engine oil level, place the pump on secure
level ground with the engine stopped.
2.Remove the filler dipstick from the engine oil filler hole
(Figure 3) and wipe clean.
The Oil Alert System will automatically
stop the engine before the engine falls
below safe limits. Always be sure to check
the engine oil level prior to starting the
engine.

DANGER — Explosive Fuel Hazard
Adding fuel to the tank should be done
only when the engine is stopped and has
had an opportunity to cool down. In the
event of a fuel spill, DO NOT attempt to
start the engine until the fuel residue has
been completely wiped up, and the area surrounding
the engine is dry.
FUEL CHECK
1.Remove the gasoline cap located on top of fuel tank.
Figure 3. Engine Oil Dipstick (Removal)
3.Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into
the filler neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.
4.If the oil level is low (Figure 4), fill to the edge of the oil
filler hole with the recommended oil type (Table 4).
Maximum oil capacity is 0.63 quarts (0.60 liters).
Figure 4. Engine Oil Dipstick (Oil Level)
PAGE 16 — MVC-82VH/VHW PLATE COMPACTOR • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #1 (04/25/08)
2.Visually inspect to see if the fuel level is low. If fuel is
low, replenish with unleaded fuel.
3.When refueling, be sure to use a strainer for filtration.
DO NOT top-off fuel. Wipe up any spilled fuel
immediately!
INSPECTION
V-BELT CHECK
CAUTION — V-Belt Check
NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine
running. Severe injury can occur if your hand (Figure 5)
gets caught between the V-belt and the clutch. Always
use safety gloves.

3.A loose V-belt will decrease the power transmission
output causing reduced compaction and premature
wear of the belt.
4.If the V-belt becomes worn or loose, replace it.
VIBRATOR OIL CHECK
1.To check the V-belt tension, remove the three bolts
that secure the belt cover to the frame as shown in
Figure 6.
1.Place the plate compactor horizontally on a flat surface.
Make sure the compactor is level when checking the
oil in the vibrator assembly.
2.Check vibrator oil level by removing the oil plug
(vibrator oil gauge) as shown in Figure 8. The oil
level should be up to the oil plug. The vibrator holds
140 cc (approximately 0.3 pint). IMPORTANT, if oil is
required, replace using only SAE10W-30 motor oil.

4.Slowly walk behind the compactor and be on the
lookout for any large objects or foreign matter that
might cause damage to the compactor or bodily injury.
5.Compactor traveling speed may drop on soils which
contain clay, however there may be cases where
traveling speed drops because the compaction plate
does not leave the ground surface easily due to the
composition of the soil. To rectify this problem do the
following:
Check the bottom plate to see if clay or equivalent
material has been lodged in the plate mechanism. If so,
wash with water and remove.
