SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USE OF VIBRATORY
PLATES WITH COMBUSTION ENGINES
General instructions
1. Vibratory plates may only be operated by persons who
* are at least 18 years of age
* are physically and mentally fit for this job
* have been instructed in guiding vibratory plates and proved their ability for the job to the employer
* may be expected to carry out the job they are charged with carefully.
The persons must be assigned the job of guiding vibratory plates by the employer.
2. Vibratory plates may only be used for compaction jobs. Both the manufacturer’s operating instructions
and these safety instructions have to be observed.
3. The persons charged with the operation of vibratory plates have to be made familiar with the necessary
safety measures relating to the machine. In case of extraordinary uses the employer shall give the necessary additional instructions.
4. It is possible that this vibratory plate exceeds the admissible sound level of 89 dB (A). According to the
rules for the prevention of accidents regarding emission of noise, the employees have to wear ear protection if the sound level reaches 89 dB (A) or more.
Operation
1. When starting a diesel engine with a starter crank make sure you have assumed a proper position with
respect to the engine and that your hands are placed properly on the crank.
☛ATTENTION! Only use the original engine manufacturer’s safety starting crank.
To avoid a possible return kick, turn safety starting crank through with full force until
2. The functioning of operating levers or elements is not to be influenced or rendered ineffective.
3. During operation the operator may not leave the control elements.
4. The operator has to stop the engine of the vibratory plate before going on breaks. The machine has to
be placed such that it cannot turn over.
5. Stop engine before filling fuel tank. When refilling fuel tank, do not allow fuel to come into contact with
the hot parts of the engine or spill onto the ground.
6. Do not smoke or handle open fire near this machine.
7. The tank lid must fit tightly. Shut off fuel cock, if available when stopping the engine. For long distance
transports of machine operated by fuel or fuel - mixtures, the fuel tank has to be drained completely.
the engine starts running.
☛ATTENTION! Leaky fuel tanks may cause explosions and must therefore be replaced immediately.
8. Do not operate the machine in areas where explosions may occur.
9. Make sure that sufficient fresh air is available when operating vibratory plates with combustion engines
in enclosed areas, tunnels, adits and deep trenches.
10. During operation keep your hands, feet and clothes away from the moving parts of the vibraton plate.
Wear safety shoes, and eye protection glasses in case of trench operation where falling sand stones
maybe ejected.
11. When working near the edges of breaks, pits, slopes, trenches and platforms, vibratory plates are to be
operated such that there is no danger of their turning over or dropping in.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12. Make sure the soil or subsoil to be compacted has a high enough load carrying capacity.
13. Use appropriate protective clothing while working or while carrying out maintenance work.
14. When traveling backwards the operator has to guide the vibration plate laterally by its guide handle so
thathewillnotbesqueezedbetweenthehandleandapossibleobstacle.Specialcareisrequiredwhenwork
ing on uneven ground or when compacting coarse material. Make sure of a firm stand when operating
the machine under such conditons.
15. Vibratory plates are to be guided such that hand injuries caused by solid objects are avoided.
16. Vibratory plates have to be guided such that their stability is guaranteed.
17. Machines with integrated transport trolley may not be parked or stored on the trolley. This device has
only been designed to transport the machine.
Safety checks
1. Vibratory plates may only be operated with all safety devices installed.
2. Before starting operation, the operator has to check that all control and safety devices function properly.
3. Immediately notify your supervisor or superintendent if you have determined defects in the safety devices or other defects which could endanger the safe operation of the machine or which could endanger
the environment.
4. In case of defects jeopardizing the operational safety of the vibration plate, the machine has to be
stopped immediately.
5. Process materials and operating fuels must be stowed away in receptacles or containers marked according to the respective manufacturers specifications.
Maintenance
1. Only use original spare parts. Modifications to this machine, including the adjustment of the maximum
engine speed set by the manufacturer, are subject to the express approval of Wacker. In case of nonobservance all liabilities shall be refused.
2. All drive units have to be switched off before carrying out maintenance jobs. Deviationsfrom this are only
allowed if the maintenance or jobs require a running engine.
3. When working on vibratory plates equipped with electric starter, disconnect battery before carrying out
maintenance or repair jobs on the electric parts of the machine.
4. Remove pressure from hydraulic lines before working on them. Caution: take care when removing hydraulic lines, for the oil may be very hot (up. over 80oC). Precautions are to be taken to prevent oil from
splashing into the operator’s eyes.
5. As soon as maintenance and repair jobs have been completed all safety devices have to be reinstalled
properly.
6. Do not hose down the machine with water after each use to avoid possible malfunctions. Do not use high
pressure washers nor chemical products.
Transport
1. During transport, loading and unloading of vibration plates by means of lifting devices, appropriate slinging means or hooks have to be used on the lifting points provided for this purpose on the vibratory plate.
2. The load-carrying capacity of the loading ramps has to be sufficient and the ramps have to be secure
such that they cannot turn over. Make sure that no one be endangered by machines turning over by slipping or by moving machine parts.
3. When being transported on vehicles, precautions have to be taken that vibration plates do not slip or turn
over.
Maintenance checks
According to the conditions and frequency of use, vibratory plates have to be checked for safe operation at
least once a year by skilled technicians, such as those found at Wacker-service depots and have to be repaired
if necessary.
Please also observe the corresponding rules and regulations valid in your country.
