MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — GENERAL INFORMATION Definition of Plate Compactor Frequency/Speed The Mikasa MVC-88GE/GEW is a walk behind, plate compactor designed for the compaction of sand, mixed soils and asphalt. This plate compactor is a powerful compacting tool capable of applying a tremendous force in consecutive high frequency vibrations to a soil surface.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — COMPONENTS (COMPACTOR) Figure 1. Plate Compactor Controls Figures 1 shows the location of the basic controls and components of the MVC-88GE/GEW Plate Compactor. The function of each control is described below: 6. Belt Cover – Remove this cover to gain access to the Vbelt. NEVER run the compactor without the V-belt cover.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — COMPONENTS (ROBIN ENGINE) Figure 2. Engine Controls and Components INITIAL SERVICING The engine (Figure 2) must be checked for proper lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the ROBIN engine service manual for instructions and details for proper operation and servicing. 5. Throttle Lever – Used to adjust engine RPM speed (lever advanced forward SLOW, lever back toward operator FAST). 1. 6. Recoil Starter (pull rope) – Manual-starting method.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — INSPECTION CAUTION NEVER operate the compactor in a confined area or enclosed area structure that does not provide ample free flow of air. 3. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick. 4. If the oil level is low (Figure 4), fill to the edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil type (Table 3). Maximum oil capacity is 0.63 quarts (0.60 liters).
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — INSPECTION 2. The V-belt tension is proper if the V-belt bends 10 to 15 mm (Figure 7) when depressed with finger at midway between the clutch and vibration pulley shafts. V-Belt Check CAUTI CAUTION NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine running. Severe injury can occur of your hand (Figure 5) gets caught between the V-belt and the clutch. Always use safety gloves. CLUTCH PULLEY Figure 7. V-Belt Tension VIBRATOR PULLEY 3.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — OPERATION CAUTION - Read Instructions 3. Place the choke lever (Figure 11) in the "CLOSED " position if starting a cold engine. DO NOT attempt to operate the equipment until the Safety, General Information and Inspection sections of this manual have been read and thoroughly understood. This section is intended to assist the operator with the initial start-up. It is extremely important that this section be read carefully before attempting to use the equipment in the field.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — OPERATION 6. Grasp the starter grip (Figure 14) and slowly pull it out. The resistance becomes the hardest at a certain position, corresponding to the compression point. Pull the starter grip briskly and smoothly for starting. Stopping The Engine Normal Shutdown 1. Move the throttle lever to the IDLE position (Figure 17) and run the engine for three minutes at low speed. Figure 14. Starter Grip 7.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — MAINTENANCE CAUTI CAUTION CAUTI CAUTION Inspection and other services should always be carried out on hard and level ground with the engine shutdown. Inspection and Maintenance Service Tables. 1. To make sure your plate compactor is always in good working condition before using, carry out the maintenance inspection in accordance with Tables 4 through 6. These inspection intervals are for operation under normal conditions.
MVC-88GE/GEW PLATE COMPACTOR — MAINTENANCE TABLE 5. MACHINE INSPECTION Item ENGINE OIL 1. Drain the engine oil when the oil is warm as shown in Figure 20. Hours of Operation Star ting check Every 8 hours (every day) 2. Remove the oil drain bolt and sealing washer and allow the oil to drain into a suitable container. Loose or lost screws Every 8 hours (every day) Damage of any par t Every 8 hours (every day) 3. Replace engine oil with recommended type oil as listed in Table 3.
MVC-88GE/GEW— MAINTENANCE CHANGING VIBRATOR OIL 1. When changing the vibrator oil, remove the drain plug located at the bottom-right of the vibrator (Figure 8), and simply tip the compactor to drain the oil. Note that the oil will drain more easily while it is hot. Remember to use only 10W-30 motor oil when replacing vibrator oil. CAUTI CAUTION NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine running. Severe injury can occur if your hand (Figure 5) gets caught between the V-belt and the clutch.
MVC-88GE/GEW— PREPARATION FOR LONG -TERM STORAGE Plate Compactor Storage For storage of the plate compactor for over 30 days, the following is required: ■ Drain the fuel tank completely or add STA-BIL to the fuel. ■ Run the engine until the fuel is completely consumed. ■ Completely drain the oil from the engine crankcase and follow procedures described in the ROBIN engine Owner's Manual for engine storage. ■ Completely drain the compactor's hydraulic oil from the vibrating case.
MVC-88GE/GEW—TROUBLESHOOTING (ENGINE) Practically all breakdowns can be prevented by proper handling and maintenance inspections, but in the event of a breakdown, please take remedial action following the diagnosis based on the Engine , and Compactor Troubleshooting (Tables 7, and 8) information shown below and on the proceeding pages. If the problem cannot be remedied, please leave the unit just as it is and consult or company's service department. TABLE 7.
MVC-88GE/GEW—TROUBLESHOOTING (ENGINE COMPACTOR) TABLE 7. ENGINE TROUBLESHOOTING (CONTINUED) SYMPTOM "Weak in power" compression is proper and does not misfire. POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION Air cleaner not clean? Clean or replace air cleaner Improper level in carburetor? Check float adjustment, re-build carbureator. Defective Spark plug? Clean or replace spark plug. Defective Spark plug? "Weak in power" compression is proper but misfires. Engine overheats. Rotational speed fluctuates.
