MVH-406DSY— FEATURES
Plate Compactor
The Mikasa MVH-406DSY 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.
Vibratory Plates
The vibratory plates of the MVH-406DSY produce low amplitude
high frequency vibrations, designed to compact granular soils.
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.
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
semi-cohesive soils.
Frequency/Speed
The compactor's vibrating plate maximum frequency is 4400
vpm (vibrations per minute). The forward and reverse travel speed
of the compactor is approximately 75 ft./minute (23 meters/
minute).
Engine
The Mikasa MVH-406DSY Plate Compactor is equipped with
either a YANMAR L-100V2AJ1R2AAS5 diesel engine.
Controls
Before starting the MVH-406DSY Plate Compactor, identify and
understand the function of the controls and components as
indicated in Figure 4.

TRAVELING
MVH-406DSY — OPERATION
Figure 18. Engine Start Handle
Figure 19. Decompression Lever
When starting a unit with an electric strart capability, a
decompressor is not normally required. However,
when ambient temperature or battery charger level is
low, use of a decompressor will help make the startup easier.
Recoil Start
1. Open the fuel cock (Figure 15).
2. Move the throttle lever to the START position (Figure 16).
3. Grasp the starter grip (Figure 18) and slowly pull it out. The
resistance becomes the hardest at a certain position,
corresponding to the compression point. Pull the starter
grip briskly and smoothly for starting.
CAUTION
Make sure to follow all safety rules referenced in the safety section
of this manual before operating compactor. Keep work area
clear of debris and other objects that could cause damage to the
compactor or bodily harm.
1. Grasp the compactor's hand grip (Figure 20), and move the
fast
engine throttle lever (Figure 20) quickly to the
2. With the throttle lever in the fast position, the engine speed
should be around 3,600 RPM, therefore engaging the centrifugal clutch
position.
Figure 20. Throttle Lever (Fast)
MVH-406DSY PLATE COMPACTOR — OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #1 (08/13/07) — PAGE 19
ALWAYS move the throttle lever quickly without
hesitation, because increasing the engine speed
slowly causes the clutch to slip.
3. To make the compactor move in the forward direction push
the travel lever ( Figure 21) forward.

MVH-406DSY — MAINTENANCE
Engine Oil Replacement:
1. Replace engine oil, in first 25 hours of operation and every
50 to 100 hours afterwards.
2. Oil may be drained more easily when it is warm after
operation (For more details, see separate engine Owner's
Manual).
Air Filter (Every 6 Months or 400 Hours)
1. The air filter element should be cleaned because a clogged
air cleaner can cause poor engine starting, lack of power
and shorten engine life substantially.
z
Replacing the V-belt
Remove the belt cover. Engage an offset wrench 3/4”(19 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.
z
Reinstalling the V-belt
Figure 27. V-Belt Check
Figure 25. Engine Air Filter and Element
2. To clean or replace air filter loosen the wing nut on the air
filter housing (Figure 25) remove the cover and take out air
filter cartridge. If only cleaning of the air filter is desired blow
through the air filter cartridge from the inside, moving a jet of
dry compressed air up and down until all dust is removed.
Engage V-belt to lower vibrator pulley and push the V-belt to left
side of upper clutch and, in the same manner as in removal,
rotate offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt goes back on.
z
Checking Clutch
Check the clutch simultaneously with V-belt checking. With belt
cover removed, check outer drum of the clutch for seizure and
"V" groove for wear or damage with your eyes. Clean the "V"
CAUTION
groove as necessary. If the shoe is worn, power transmission
becomes deficient and slipping will result.
NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine running.
z
Severe injury can occur if your hand gets caught between the Vbelt and the clutch (Figure 26). Always use safety gloves.
CLUTCH
PULLEY
Replacing Clutch
Remove V-belt. Remove bolt at engine power output by giving a
light tap with a hammer to an engaged wrench and rotate bolt
counterclockwise. Remove clutch with a pulley extractor. To
reinstall, reverse the procedure.
VIBRATOR
PULLEY
Figure 26. V-Belt Hazard
Whenever the compactor's vibration becomes weak or lost during
normal operation regardless of operation hours, check the V-belt
and clutch immediately.
Checking and Replacing the V-Belt and Clutch
CAUTION
1. After 200 hours of operation, remove the belt cover to check
the V-belt tension (Figure 27). Tension is proper if the belt
bends about 3/8”(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.
