FEATURES

The tamping compactor is a powerful com-
pacting tool capable of applying a tremendous
force in consecutive impacts to a soil surface.
Its applications include soil compacting for
road, embankments and reservoirs as well as
backfilling for gas pipelines, water pipelines
and cable installation work.
Circular motion is converted to create impact
force. The tamping compactor develops a pow-
erful compacting force at the foot of the com-
pactor. To maintain optimum performance,
proper operation and service are essential.

FUNCTIONS AND CONTROLS

The motor is controlled by an ON/OFF switch
or push button which is mounted on the motor
below the fuel tank.
Tension of the drive belt is adjustable. Loosen
the four nuts on the bolts which secure the
motor to the base plate, Adjust the set screws
which bear against the motor crankcase to
achieve the required belt tension .Ensure that
the four nuts and the set screw locknuts are
tightened after adjustment.
