• Set the engine speed to the desired level using the throttle. Higher speeds generally result in greater compaction force.
• Guide the compactor slowly and steadily over the material to be compacted.
• Overlap each pass by approximately one-third of the plate width to ensure uniform compaction.
• For optimal compaction, make multiple passes over the same area, gradually increasing the number of passes until the desired density is achieved.
• The recommended compaction depth is up to 150 cm, with a movement speed of 13.8 meters per minute.
• For cohesive soils, it may be beneficial to lightly moisten the surface before compaction.

5.3 Oprirea motorului

1. Reduceți turația motorului la ralanti.
2. Mutați comutatorul motorului în poziția „OPRIT”.
3. Close the fuel valve (OFF position) to prevent fuel leakage.
