• Remove the screw-on oil cap (6).
• The oil level should be visible on the thread of the
oil filling nozzle.
• If the oil level is below this, then fill in the recom-
mended oil (see technical data) up to the lower edge
of the oil filler hole.
Do not overfill!
Tighten the screw-on –oil cap well.
Low oil level can cause engine damage. The manufac-
turer is not responsible for the resulting damages; the
user solely bears the risk.
Change the engine oil (Fig. 11)
Change the engine oil after 50 operating hours, then
after 100 hours or every month.
• Drain the engine oil when the engine (1) is hot.
• Let the engine (1) warm up.
• Switch the engine (1) off.
• Place a container that is large enough to collect the
used oil under the oil drain screw (7).
• To drain the oil, remove the screw-on oil cap (6) and
the oil drain screw (7).
• Re-fit the oil drain screw (7) and tighten.
• Fill with recommended engine oil up to the lower
edge of the oil filler hole with the engine in a hori-
zontal position (1).
Refer to "Technical data" for the oil quantity and oil
type.
Tighten the screw-on –oil cap (6) well.
Note!
Recommended engine oil: SAE 10W-30
Capacity: approximately 0.6 litres
Dispose of the drained oil properly at a local used oil
collection point. Dumping used oil in the soil or mixing
it with waste is prohibited.
Important note in the case of repairs:
When returning the vibration rammer for repair, for
safety reasons, ensure that the vibration rammer is
free of oil and fuel when it is sent to the service centre.
Clean the air filter (5)
• Remove air filter housing cover.
• Carefully remove the foam insert, check for damage.
• Replace damaged parts and wipe off dirt on the in-
side of the filter housing with a clean moist cloth.
• Clean the foam insert with a mild soap solution.

• Thoroughly rinse it out with clear water and let it dry
completely.
Do NOT use petrol or cleaning solvents with a
low flash point to clean the air filter element.
• This could result in fire or explosion.
• Place the foam insert on the air filter insert.
• Close air filter housing cover.
Never run the engine (1) without an air filter or with a
damaged air filter. This would allow dirt into the engine
(1), which would result in severe damage to the engine.
The manufacturer is not responsible for the resulting
damages; the user solely bears the risk.
Check the spark plug
• Switch off the engine (1) and allow it to cool.
Caution! Danger of burning
• Remove the spark plug connector and clean any dirt
from the spark plug area.
• Unscrew the spark plug and check it.
• Clean or replace spark plug as required.
• If there is any damage, e.g. cracks or chips, replace
the spark plug.
• Clean the spark plug electrodes with a wire brush.
• Check and set the electrode gap. For distance, see
"Technical data".
• Screw the spark plug in and tighten with the spark
plug spanner.
• Place the spark plug connector on the spark plug.
• When replacing, ensure that no dirt gets into the cyl-
inder head.
• Check the fit of the spark plug.
• A loose spark plug can cause damage to the engine
(1) by overheating.
• Pulling too hard can damage the thread in the cyl-
inder head.
• The manufacturer is not responsible for the resulting
damages; the user solely bears the risk.
Lubricating the tamping system (Fig. 12)
Check the oil level:
Check the oil level every time before starting.
• Place the vibration rammer on a level surface.
• Remove contamination in the area of the sight glass
(16).
• Check oil level through sight glass (16).
Tamping system lubrication is OK when the oil sight
glass shows about 1/2 - 3/4 full.
If no oil is visible, then oil must be added.
• Tilt the vibration rammer forward until the device
rests on the transport protection (18).
