Running machine: Thickness of the layer to be compacted can be up to 250mm (100-250mm is ideal). Make sure soil is slightly moist (not wet and not dry) throughout the layer. 6-8 passes with the machine advancing at its normal pace will usually give you optimum compaction results- avoid "over compaction". Always run engine at Full speed when doing compaction work. Do not move the forward reverse control when engine is stopped or idling.

Shutting Down: Turn On/Off switch off. Close fuel line.

Remove fuel cap and place in clean dry area within reach of the machine.
Pour the fuel into the tank.
Replace fuel cap and move fuel container.
