OPERATION Introduction diesel fuel or unleaded gasoline dependent on engine type. (See Engine “Owner’s Manual”) MBW Inc. equipment is intended for use in very severe applications. They are powered by four cycle engines and are available in different sizes and a selection of engines. • FUEL FILTER - If clogged or damaged, replace. Engine The MBW Reversible Plate Compactor is intended to compact various soil types.
WARNING Stopping Engine 1. To stop the compactor from traveling forward, return the engine throttle to idle position. 2. Whenever possible, it is recommended to let the engine idle for one or two minutes before stopping. 3. Gas engines: Turn the switch on the engine to “STOP” position. Diesel engines: Move the throttle control to the “STOP” position. 4. Turn off the fuel valve where applicable. Always stop the engine before: Adding fuel. Leaving the equipment unattended, even if only for a minute.
MAINTENANCE WARNING CAUTION Always exercise the stopping procedure before servicing or lubricating the unit. Always verify fluid levels and check for leaks after changing fluids. After servicing the unit, replace and fasten all guards, shields, and covers to their original positions before resuming operation. Do not drain oil onto ground, into open streams, or down sewage drains.
4. The engine idle speed must not exceed 1800 RPM. If the idle speed is greater than 1800 RPM the clutch may not disengage. Battery Maintenance 1. 2. Loose or corroded battery terminals will lead to weak starts and poor charging. Clean posts and connectors with a wire brush for best connection. Remove dirt from case using a solution of (2) teaspoons baking soda and (1) pint of water. Dry completely. Always recycle old battery when replacing.
SERVICE Assembly and disassembly should be preformed by a service technician who has been factory trained on MBW equipment. the unit should be clean and free of debris. Pressure washing before disassembly is recommended. • Prior to assembly, wash all parts in a suitable cleaner or solvent. Service Tools • Check moving parts for wear and failure. Refer to the Replacement Section of this manual for tolerances and replacement cycles. Part No.
4. Tilt the plate toward a drain pan to aid in the removal of all used oil and particles. 5. Remove the socket head pipe plug (#28) from the baseplate and drain the oil. Examine the oil for metal chips as a precaution to future troubles. 6. 15. Disconnect the negative “black” battery cable (#9) from the batter (#22). Tip the plate opposite the drain hole, and fill the baseplate through the pipe plug opening with exciter oil to level specified in the Fluid Levels section of this manual.
25. Lower engine deck to level position and tighten hex nuts (#31). not to scratch the inner diameter sealing surface of the shift spool when removing the seals. 10. Remove the four flanged capscrews (#21), the cylinder cover (#19) and the cylinder gasket (#18). Be sure to remove all of the gasket pieces from the hydraulic housing to provide a good seal surface for the new gasket. Bleeding And Adjustment of Hydraulic Controls Refer to figure 2 on next page. 11.
Refer to Lower Shaft Assembly, page 24. 11. Place a shop rag under the hydraulic housing (#16) to catch the oil and remove the four flange screws (#22) securing the cylinder mount plate (#20) to the input shaft cover (#12) and remove the hydraulic housing (#16) from the baseplate. ),*85( 12. Remove the shift spool (#15) from the shift shaft (#10) by sliding the shift spool out of the baseplate and holding it secure while unthreading the shift spool. NOTE: This connection is left hand thread.
13. Remove bearings (#14) from handle tube (#8). 26. Note: performance of the following steps will require replacement of the ball bearings (#3). M-B-W recommends replacement of these bearings as a set at every complete disassembly or rebuild. 27. Remove the internal retaining ring (#8) from the helix pin carrier (#9) and remove the shift shaft (#10) and bearings (#3) as a subassembly from the carrier. 28. Remove the e-clip retaining ring (#5) securing the bearings to the shift shaft. 14.
5. Install the hex head screws (#23) and washer (#26) into the shaft bearing covers using LOCTITE #243 thread locker sealant. 13. Install the breather (#3) into the 90 (#2) degree fitting. Make sure breather is clean, functioning & air can pass thru, if unsure replace breather. 6. Install the plastic plugs (#1) in the threaded holes used to press the covers out of the baseplate. 7. Install the key (#12) into the idler shaft (#8). 8.
exciter weights (both weights in the down position) See the figure #5 for setting the gear timing. torque the screws to 13 ft.-lbs. See the figure #3 for LOCTITE #515 gasket maker application. Check input shaft for minimum of .020” end play after covers are installed and the bolts are torqued. 29. Install the other exciter weight (#21) to the input shaft (#16) with two socket head cap screws (#27) using LOCTITE #243 thread locker sealant on the threads and torque the cap screws to 30 ft.-lbs.
to the hydraulic side of the baseplate with the four hex head flange screws (#21). Set the side cover (#12) off to the side until bleeding and final assembly is done. The exciter is now ready for final assembly. 36. Lubricate the inside of the hydraulic housing (#16) and the seal lips with hydraulic oil. See Maintenance section for hydraulic fluid type. 37. Install the hydraulic housing over the hydraulic seals and guide ring. Be careful not to damage the guide ring and hydraulic seals during installation.
5. Install control shaft (#20) into handle tube (#8) and secure with retaining rings (#5). Note: Control shaft can be install for either right or left hand operation. 7. Place battery (#22) into battery box and secure with j-bolts (#5), bracket (#21), washers (#26) and lock nuts (#25). 8. Reinstall positive battery cable to positive post of battery. Reinstall negative battery cable to negative post of battery. 6.
throttle cable in bracket (#5) then tighten jam nuts (#6) after final adjustment. 2. Push throttle control lever (#1) forward to full throttle position (do not force). While holding lever in this position screw in throttle stop set screw (#2) until you can feel it touch or start moving the throttle control lever. Assemble and tighten jam nut (#3) to lock this position. 3. Start unit up and test for full throttle operation and shut down.
Troubleshooting SYMPTOM Engine does not start or stalls. Engine does not accelerate, is hard to start or runs erratically. Engine over heats or runs hot. Engine runs at full speed but machine does not move. Slow or no forward travel speed. REPAIR 1. Fuel valve is closed, open valve (gasoline engine). 2. Engine switch is in “STOP” position, turn switch to “ON” position (gasoline engine). 3. Fouled spark plug, clean or replace spark plug (gasoline engine). 4.
