MVH-150D — GENERAL INFORMATION
Plate Compactor
The Mikasa MVH-150D is a walk-behind reversible plate
compactor designed for the compaction of sand, clay 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 soil compacting
for road, embankments and reservoirs as well as backfilling for
gas pipelines, water pipelines and cable installation work.
Compactor Components
This plate compactor is comprised of an anti-vibration handle,
vibrating case (eccentric), water tank, guard hook, rubber shock
absorbers and a Yanmar diesel engine.
Reversible Vibratory Plates
Reversible vibratory plates have two eccentric weights that allow
a smooth transition for forward and reverse travel, plus increased
compaction force as the result of dual weights.
Due to their weight and force, reversible plates are ideal for semicohesive soils.
Power Transfer
The Mikasa MVH-150D Plate Compactor is equipped with an
air-cooled, vertical single-cylinder, 4-stroke Yanmar L48V6 diesel
engine. A centrifugal clutch is attached to the output shaft of the
engine and will engage when the engine speed reaches
approximately 2,300 ~ 2,600 rpm’s.
Frequency/Speed
The compactor's vibrating plate maximum frequency is 6,000
vpm (vibrations per minute). The forward and reverse travel speed
of the compactor is approximately 75ft./minute (23 meters/minute).
Controls
Before starting the MVH-150D Plate Compactor, identify and
understand the function of the controls and components as
indicated in Figure 2.
Engine shaft speed is transfered via engine pulley and V-belt to
vibrator pulley. The vibrator pulley rotates an eccentric rotor shaft
(2) one for foward one for reverse that is contained within the
vibrator case.
The generated vibration created from the eccentric rotor is
transmitted to the compacting plate. This vibration causes the
compactor to move in either a forward or reverse direction.

, move the handle bar to the upright position.
7. Engine – This plate compactor use a YANMAR L48V6
diesel engine. Refer to the owner’s manual for engine
information and related topics.
8. Belt Cover – Remove this cover to gain access to the Vbelts. NEVER run the compactor without the V-belt cover. If
the V-belt cover is not installed, the possibility exist that
your hand may get caught between the V-belt and clutch,
thus causing serious injury and bodily harm.
9. Vibration Case – Encloses the eccentric, gears and
counter weights.
10. Forward and Reverse Lever –
the compactor will move in a forward direction,
lever backwards, the compactor will move in backwards
direction. Placing the lever in the middle (midway) will cause
the compactor not to move (neutral).

■
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.
■
Remember the compactor does not work as efficiently on
clay or soils that have a high moisture content level.
■
If the soil has a high moisture level, dry soil to appropriate
moisture content level or carry out compaction twice.
For storage of the compactor for over 30 days, the following
is required:
■
Drain the fuel tank completely, or add STA-BIL to the fuel.
■
Run the engine until the fuel in the injection system is
completely consumed.
■
Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill with
fresh oil.
■
Pour 2 or 3 cc of SAE 30 oil into the cylinder and crank slowly
to distribute the oil.
■
Pull out the starter rope slowly and stop at the compression
point.
■
Clean all external parts of the compactor with a cloth.
■
Cover the compactor and store in a clean, dry place.
NOTE
Whenever the compactor's vibration becomes weak or lost during
normal operation, regardless of
operation hours, check the V-belt
and clutch immediately.

Engine Oil Replacement
1. Replace engine oil, first in 25 hours of operation and every
50 to 100 hours afterwards.
2. Drain the engine oil when the oil is
Figure 18.
Figure 18. Engine Oil (Draining)
3. Remove the oil drain bolt and sealing washer and allow the
oil to drain into a suitable container.
4. Replace engine oil in the oil tank with recommended type
oil as listed in Table 4. Engine oil capacity is 1.16 quarts (1.1
liter). DO NOT overfill.
5. Install drain bolt with sealing washer and tighten securely.
Air Filter Cleaning
1. Remove the air cleaner cover and foam filter element as
shown in Figure 19.
2. Tap the paper filter element (Figure 19) several times on a hard
surface to remove dir t, or blow compressed air [not exceeding
30 psi (207 kPa, 2.1 kgf/cm

Checking and the V-Belt
After 200 hours of operation, remove the belt cover to check the Vbelt tension (Figure 20).
1. Remove the belt cover.
2. Tension is proper if the belt bends about 10 mm when
depressed strongly with finger between shafts. Loose or worn
V-belts reduces power transmission efficiency, causing weak
compaction and reduces the life of the belt itself.
CAUTION - Checking and Replacing the V-Belt
NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with
the engine running. Severe injury can
occur if your hand gets caught between
the V-belt and the clutch. Always use
safety gloves.
Replacing the V-belt
Figure 20. Checking V-belt Tension
CAUTION - Cleaning the Engine Air Filter
NEVER brush off dirt. Brushing will force dirt into the fibers and
cause poor performance in your air filter. Replace the paper filter
element if it is excessively dirty.
3. Clean foam element in warm, soapy water or nonflammable
solvent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Dip the element in clean
engine oil and completely squeeze out the excess oil from the
element before installing.

1. Remove the V-belt cover (Figure 21).
2. Using cutters, simply cut the worn or defective V-belt and
discard.
3. Place one end of the new V-belt onto the upper pulley (clutch
side).
4. Place a 19 mm offset wrench or the like onto the lower vibrator
pulley fastening bolt.
5. Place the other end of the V-belt onto lower vibrator pulley.
Rotate offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt moves onto
the lower vibrator pulley.
