Switching off the machine
Switch off the equipment before transport and release the pressure of the com-
pressed-air line.
Transporting the machine
Secure the machine on the transport device against tilting, falling or slipping.
2.5 Operating safety
Work environment
Familiarize yourself with your work environment before you start work. This in-
cludes e.g. the following items:
Obstacles in the work and traffic area.
The load-carrying capacity of the ground.
The measures needed to cordon off the construction site from public traffic.
The measures needed to secure walls and ceilings.
Options available in the event of an accident.

2.6 Safety during the operation of external vibrators
Using stable formwork
Only use stable molds and formwork for attaching the external vibrator. Tighten
the fastening screws.
Molds and formworks that are not firm enough or loose connections may over-
load the motor or result in being damaged themselves.
Check whether your formwork is suitable for receiving external vibrators:
Attachment possibility.
Sufficient stability for the used external vibrator type (dependent on the per-
formance).
Your WACKER representative will be happy to assist you.
Using the correct fastening clamp
Attach the external vibrator using the fastening clamp which is suitable for the ex-
ternal vibrator and the formwork.
2.7 Safety during the operation of compressed-air appliances
Connecting compressed-air lines
Only use compressed-air lines which have not been damaged.
Use compressed-air lines which are as short as possible. Lay the compressed-
air lines as straight as possible or with a large curve radius. This minimizes the
pressure drop.
Lock the compressed-air couplings fully into place.
The pressure will be released suddenly if the compressed-air lines are discon-
nected due to an incorrect setup. This can result in movements of open hose
ends and injury to persons or damage to property.
Selecting the correct cross section for the lines
The cross section for the compressed-air lines has to be dimensioned according
to the operation of compressed-air equipment.
Opening compressed-air lines
Release the pressure of the compressed-air lines before opening the com-
pressed-air couplings.

4.1 General instructions
Clear the air line of the compressor before connecting it to the equip-
ment by pushing air through it. Check if coupling, strainer and seal are
clean. Discharge the water more frequently in winter to prevent the de-
velopment of ice in the compressor or the pressurized tank.
Use a water or oil separator if there is a high moisture or oil content in
the compressed air.
4.2 Application
Concrete compaction in structural and civil engineering for formwork
vibration of highly reinforced objects or for exposed concrete.
Building of streets and freeways for thick boards and finishers.
Civil engineering of industry pre-cast segments and prestressed con-
crete structures, mining with explosion hazards.
Pre-cast segments and precast concrete factories for the manufacture
of pre-cast structures; for the charging of tilting tables, vibrating tables
etc.

4.4 Attachment
A bracing profile (e.g. U 80) has to be mounted on the relevant attach-
ment points of the mold for the attachment of the outer vibrator (1). The
saddle clamp (2) of the external vibrator (1) or a special, planed steel
plate for the connection of the saddle clamp (2) will be welded onto the
bracing profile. All welding seams have to be performed in uninterrupt-
ed step welding. The external vibrator (1) itself will be pushed with the
connected plug under the free bolt (3) of the saddle clamp (2) and fix-
ated with the slotted nose which is connected to the engine case (4)
with the flanged nut (5) of the eye bolt (torque wrench setting 400 Nm).
If enough saddle clamps (2) exist, the external vibrator (1) can be re-
moved and moved from the saddle clamp (2) by opening the flanged
nut (5) in accordance with the concreting process.
