2.2.3 During operation the operator may not leave the control elements.

2.2.4 The operator has to stop the engine of the vibratory plate before going

on breaks. The machine has to be placed such that it cannot turn over.

2.2.5 Stop engine before filling fuel tank. When refilling fuel tank, do not

allow fuel to come into contact with the hot part of the engine or spill

onto the ground.

2.2.6 Do not smoke or handle open fire near this machine.

Leaky fuel tanks may cause explosions and must therefore be

replaced immediatelly.

2.2.8 Do not operate this machine in areas where explosions may occur.

2.2.9 Make sure that sufficient fresh air is available when operating vibratory

plates equipped with combustion engines in enclosed areas, tunnels,

galleries and deep trenches.

2.2.14 When traveling backwards the operator has to guide the vibration plate

laterally by its guide handle so that he will not be squeezed between

the handle and a possible obstacle. Special care is required when work

ing on uneven ground or when compacting coarse material. Make sure

of a firm stand when operating the machine under such conditons.

2.2.15 Vibratory plates are to be guided such that hand injuries caused by

solid objects are avoided.

2.2.16 Vibratory plates have to be guided such that their stability is

guaranteed.
