Check bolts and screws for tightness and make sure all bolts and screws are securely
tightened. Loose bolts and screws may cause damage to the unit.
STARTING

After the engine has started open the choke lever fully and warm up the engine for 2-3
minutes in the low speed position.
OPERATING
Take care not to over-speed the flexible shaft or damage could result.
Engine speed is set to 3100RPM which is correct for vibrator shafts. Operating in excess
of this speed may cause damage to vibrator shaft.

position.

After the engine has cooled, it is highly recommended to wipe off the machine and
inspect oil seals for any unusual leakage from the engine.
It is also recommended that a cover be placed over the machine once cooled, to provide
protection to the machine as well as the engine.
