GENERAL INFORMATION
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Mikasa MVH150VD2 is a walk-behind, reversible
plate compactor designed for the compaction of sand and
clay. 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 backfi lling for gas pipelines, water
pipelines and cable installation work.
ECCENTRIC WEIGHTS
A set of rotating eccentric weights within the vibrator
case produces low amplitude high frequency vibrations,
designed to compact granular soil. The rotation of the
weights are controlled hydraulically through a lever on the
control handle. Changing the position of the lever allows
smooth transition between forward and reverse travel.
The resulting vibrations cause forward motion. The engine
and handle are vibration-isolated from the vibrating plate.
The heavier the plate, the more compaction force it
generates.
ANTI-VIBRATION HANDLE SYSTEM (AVT)
This compactor is equipped with advanced anti-vibration
handle design that reduces vibration to the operator by up
to 50% compared to other plate compactors.
FREQUENCY/SPEED
The compactor's vibrating plate has a frequency of 5,400
vpm (vibrations per minute). The forward and reverse travel
speed of the compactor is approximately 82 feet/minute
(25 meters/minute).
ENGINE
The plate compactor is equipped with a Yanmar
L48V6AF3R4AAW4 air-cooled, 4-cycle, diesel engine.

for any large objects or foreign matter that might cause
damage to the compactor or bodily injury.
Compactor traveling speed may drop on soils which 6.
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.
NORMAL SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE
Place the speed control lever in the IDLE position. Allow 1.
the engine to cool down for 2 to 3 minutes.
Next, place the speed control lever in the STOP position 2.
(Figure 17) to stop the engine.

Remember the compactor does not work as effi ciently •
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.
NOTICE
Whenever the compactor's vibration becomes weak or
lost during normal operation, regardless of operation

MAINTENANCE
Remove soil and clean the bottom of compaction 3.
plate.
Check hydraulic pump, piping and hose for any leakage. 4.
A loosened hydraulic hose can be a cause for leakage.
Check hydraulic hose connections with wrench applied
for tightness.
Check engine oil.5.
ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT
Replace engine oil, in fi rst 20 hours of operation and 1.
every 100 hours afterwards.
Oil may be drained more easily when it is warm after 2.
operation (For more details, see separate engine
Owner's Manual).
AIR FILTER
Remove the air cleaner cover and foam fi lter element 1.
as shown in Figure 18.
Replacing the V-belt
Remove the upper and lower belt covers. Engage an
offset wrench (13 mm) or the like to vibrator pulley (lower)
fastening bolt. Engage waste cloth or the like at midway
of V-belt on the left side and while pulling it back strongly,
rotate the offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt will
come off.
Reinstalling the V-belt
Engage V-belt to lower vibrator pulley and push the V-belt
to left side of upper clutch. In the same manner as in
removal, rotate offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt
goes back on.
Checking Clutch
Check the clutch simultaneously with V-belt checking. With
belt removed, visually check outer drum of the clutch for
seizure and "V" groove for wear or damage. Clean the "V"
groove as necessary. Regularly check the lining or shoe
for wear. If the shoe is worn, power transmission becomes
defi cient and slipping will result.
Air FilterFigure 18.
Tap the paper fi lter element (Figure 18) several times on 2.
a hard surface to remove dirt, or blow compressed air
[not exceeding 30 psi (207 kPa, 2.1 kgf/cm2)] through
the fi lter element from the air cleaner case side.
Clean foam element in warm, soapy water or 3.
nonfl ammable solvent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Dip
the element in clean engine oil and completely squeeze
out the excess oil from the element before installing.
CHECKING AND REPLACING V-BELT AND CLUTCH
After 200 hours of operation, remove the upper belt 1.
cover to check the V-belt tension. Tension is proper if
the belt bends about 10 mm when depressed strongly
with fi nger between shafts. Loose or worn V-belts
reduce power transmission effi ciency, causing weak
compaction and reducing the life of the belt itself.
NOTICE
Whenever the compactor's vibration becomes weak or
lost during normal operation, regardless of operation
hours, check the V-belt and clutch immediately.
VIBRATOR OIL LEVEL CHECK
In every 300 hours of operation, with the machine 1.
positioned horizontally, remove vibrator oil level check
plug (Figure 6) off vibrator (14 mm wrench) and see
if oil is up to fi ller port. Be sure to clean area around
check hole to prevent dirt and dust from entering.
In every 300 hours of operation, replace oil (capacity 2.
400 cc). For draining oil through level check hole, have
the machine inclined with a sleeper or the like placed
under the compaction plate on opposite side.
* Use engine oil 10W-30 for this lubrication.
NOTICE
Always clean the area around the vibrator oil level check
hole before removing oil check plug. This will prevent
dirt and debris from entering the system.

MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Make sure hydraulic oil in hand pump is at normal safe
operating level. Do not overfi ll. Overfi lling (excessive oil)
will cause excess oil to blow out of the breather plug.
HYDRAULIC OIL
Check hydraulic oil in every 100 hours of operation. 1.
With handle bar positioned vertically (storage position),
remove breather plug (Figure 1) off the top of hydraulic
pump and check for proper oil level.
Replace hydraulic oil after fi rst 200 hours and in every 2.
1,000 hours of operation.
Replacing Hydraulic Oil
After removing plug cap of hand pump (Figure 7), 1.
remove plug of breather (24 mm wrench) and
disconnect vibrator side of hydraulic hose (Figure 19)
at vibrator cylinder. With travel lever placed in the
FORWARD position, drain hydraulic oil in the pump.
STORAGE
For storage of the equipment for over 30 days, the following
is required:
Drain the fuel tank completely. 1.
Run the engine until the fuel in the injection system is 2.
completely consumed.
Completely drain the oil from the engine crankcase and 3.
follow procedures described in the engine's Owner's
Manual for engine storage.
Completely drain hydraulic oil from the vibrating 4.
case.
Clean entire plate compactor, especially the bottom 5.
plate, removing all dirt and foreign matter.
Cover plate compactor and engine with plastic covering 6.
or equivalent and store in a clean, dry place.
Hydraulic HoseFigure 19.
After draining, reconnect the hydraulic hose to 2.
vibrator.
Fill oil through breather hole of hand pump. (capacity: 3.
about 300 cc). Use Shell Tellus Oil #46 or equivalent.
Removing breather plug at vibrator cylinder causes oil 4.
to fl ow out of breather hole in a while. When aeration
disappears, replace the plug and tighten securely.
Replace breather plug of hand pump and fi t the plug 5.
cap. After making sure that oil in pump is at proper
level, replace the breather plug.
