USE

SWEPAC FB 450 / FB 510

are used to pack ballast under foundations, in connection with road
building, in trenches, etc. On account of the forward/reverse fun­ction, the machine is very suitable for packing in tight spaces and as
a complement to larger packing equipment. The innitely variable
speed control makes it possible to move with great precision and to
pack without moving.

TECHNICAL DATA METHOD OF OPERATION

The machine consists of a base plate with a vibration
element and an upper part cushioned from the base plate.
The cushioning between the base plate and the upper part
consists of four rubber dampers. The upper part, on which
the drive engine is mounted, is also designed as a hydraulic
oil tank. The control handle is placed on the upper part and
cushioned with rubber dampers. The vibration element is
driven and the direction of travel is changed by means of hy­draulics. The hydraulic pump, mounted on the diesel engine,
supplies a hydraulic motor on the vibration element with an
oil ow. The vibration element consist of two shafts on roller
bearings with bias weights that are connected to gear wheels
that rotate in opposite directions. One gear wheel can rotate
on its shaft by means of a hydraulic cylinder. This changes
the mutual phase positions of the eccentric weights and the
direction of travel of the machine, and the speed is changed
innitely variably. All parts are well protected against da­mage in connection with use and transportation by a sturdy
protective frame with a hood of impact-resistant ABS.

Hydraulic Oil Level Check

Check every day that the hydraulic connections do not leak
or wear during operation. The oil level in the tank must be
according the picture, approximately 4 cm below from the
top of the tank. Fill up hydraulic oil as described below.
Remove the battery cover. Remove the tank cover (1).
Remove the lter (2). Fill up hydraulic oil and reassemble
lter and cover. The cover must be well tightened when
reassembling.

Vibration Element

Check regularly that there is no oil leak. Seal any leaks.
Note! Machines must never be operated if a leak is sus­pected.
Note! The oil level in the vibration element is 0,5 liter.

Rubber Damper

Check the condition of the rubber dampers regularly.
Replace damaged dampers.

Hydraulic Oil cooler

The machine is equipped with a hydraulic oil cooler. The
cooler start working when the hydraulic oil reach a
temperature +50 ˚C. Afterwards subsequently switch to and
from the coolers as necessary. After shutting off the
machine, the cooling fan run for a short time, which is
normal.

Note! If the indicator light for hydraulic temperature (see

the panel picture for each machine) lights red it indicates
that the hydraulic oil temperature is to heat. Continue dri­ving the machine means worse compaction capability. Stop
and check the hydraulic oil cooler.
