2. Safety Information
This manual contains DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, NOTICE, and
NOTE signal words which must be followed to reduce the possibility
of personal injury, damage to the equipment, or improper service.
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential
personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this
symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE: Used without the safety alert symbol, NOTICE indicates a
situation which, if not avoided, could result in property damage.
Note: Contains additional information important to a procedure.
2.1 Laws Pertaining to Spark Arresters
Notice: State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources Codes
specify that in certain locations spark arresters be used on internal
combustion engines that use hydrocarbon fuels. A spark arrester is a
device designed to prevent accidental discharge of sparks or flames
from the engine exhaust. Spark arresters are qualified and rated by
the United States Forest Service for this purpose.
In order to comply with local laws regarding spark arresters, consult
the engine distributor or the local Health and Safety Administrator.

2.2 Operating Safety
Familiarity and proper training are required for the safe operation of the
machine. Machines operated improperly or by untrained personnel
can be hazardous. Read the operating instructions contained in this
manual and the engine manual, and familiarize yourself with the
location and proper use of all controls. Inexperienced operators should
receive instruction from someone familiar with the machine before
being allowed to operate it.
2.2.1 Do not touch the engine or muffler while the engine is on or
immediately after it has been turned off. These areas get hot and may
cause burns.
2.2.2 Do not use accessories or attachments that are not recommended by
Wacker Neuson. Damage to equipment and injury to the user may
result.
2.2.3 Never leave the machine running unattended.
2.2.4 NEVER operate the machine with the beltguard missing. Exposed
drive belt and pulleys create potentially dangerous hazards that can
cause serious injuries.
2.2.5 NEVER run machine indoors or in an enclosed area unless adequate
ventilation, through such items as exhaust fans or hoses, is provided.
Exhaust gas from the engine contains poisonous carbon monoxide
gas; exposure to carbon monoxide can cause loss of consciousness
and may lead to death.
2.2.6 Always wear protective clothing appropriate to the job site when
operating the machine.
2.2.7 Wear hearing protection when operating equipment.
2.2.8 Read, understand, and follow procedures in the Operator’s Manual
before attempting to operate the machine.
2.2.9 ALWAYS check that all controls are functioning properly immediately
after start-up! DO NOT operate machine unless all controls operate
correctly.
2.2.10 Close fuel valve on engines equipped with one when machine is not
being operated.
2.2.11 Store the machine properly when it is not being used. The machine
should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children.
2.2.12 Always operate the machine with all safety devices and guards in
place and in working order.
2.2.13 ALWAYS operate screed along even forms. Avoid objects protruding
from concrete such as stakes or plumbing that would interfere with
screed operation.

2.3 Operator Safety while using Internal Combustion Engines
Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation
and fueling. Read and follow the warning instructions in the engine
owner’s manual and the safety guidelines below. Failure to follow the
warnings and safety standards could result in severe injury or death.
2.3.1 Do not smoke while operating the machine.
2.3.2 Do not smoke when refueling the engine.
2.3.3 Do not refuel a hot or running engine.
2.3.4 Do not refuel the engine near an open flame.
2.3.5 Do not run the engine near open flames.
2.3.6 Refill the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.
2.3.7 Replace the fuel tank cap after refueling.

2.4 Service Safety
A poorly maintained machine can become a safety hazard! In order
for the machine to operate safely and properly over a long period of
time, periodic maintenance and occasional repairs are necessary.
2.4.1 Do not attempt to clean or service the machine while it is running.
Rotating parts can cause severe injury.
2.4.2 Do not crank a flooded engine with the spark plug removed on
gasoline-powered engines. Fuel trapped in the cylinder will squirt out
the spark plug opening.
2.4.3 Do not test for spark on gasoline-powered engines if the engine is
flooded or the smell of gasoline is present. A stray spark could ignite
the fumes.
2.4.4 Do not use gasoline or other types of fuels or flammable solvents to
clean parts, especially in enclosed areas. Fumes from fuels and
solvents can become explosive.
2.4.5 Keep the area around the muffler free of debris such as leaves, paper,
cartons, etc. A hot muffler could ignite the debris and start a fire.
2.4.6 Replace worn or damaged components with spare parts designed and
recommended by Wacker Neuson Corporation.
2.4.7 Disconnect the spark plug on machines equipped with gasoline
engines, before servicing, to avoid accidental start-up.
2.4.8 Keep the machine clean and labels legible. Replace all missing and
hard-to-read labels. Labels provide important operating instructions
and warn of dangers and hazards.
2.4.9 ALWAYS handle cables carefully. The cables can fray and develop
sharp edges which can cause serious cuts.

3.6 Sound Measurements
The required sound specification, per paragraph 1.74.f of 89/392/EEC
machinery directive, is:
the sound pressure level at operator's location (L
pA
) = 89 dB(A).
the guaranteed sound power level (L
WA
) = 97 dB(A).
These sound values were determined according to ISO 3744 for the
guaranteed sound power level (L
WA
) and ISO 6081 for the sound
pressure level (L
pA
) at the operator's location.
3.7 Vibration Measurements
The operating hand/arm vibration level, measured per the
requirements of enclosure 1, Paragraph 2.2 or 3.6.3 of the EC-
Machine Regulations, is approximately 11.8 m/s
2
.
The weighted effective acceleration value was determined according
to ISO 8662 Part 1.
The sound and vibration measurements were obtained with the
machine operating on sand at nominal engine speed.

4. Operation
4.1 Application
This screed is a modern, high production machine intended to provide
consolidation of concrete while striking off and closing concrete
surfaces. The vibratory motion, consolidation, and closing action are
controlled by the engine speed. Wacker screeds are easily put
together to form desired lengths for all finishing applications. Finishing
rates will depend on operator skill and job conditions.
DO NOT use this machine for any application other than screeding
concrete.
Operation HP/ HPG /...
wpm_tx001145gb.fm 16
4.2 Recommended Fuel
The engine requires regular grade unleaded gasoline. Use only fresh,
clean gasoline. Gasoline containing water or dirt will damage fuel
system. Consult engine owner’s manual for complete fuel
specifications.
Use of oxygenated fuels
Some conventional gasolines are being blended with alcohol. These
gasolines are collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels. To meet
clean air standards, some areas of the United States and Canada use
oxygenated fuels to help reduce emissions.
If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the
minimum octane rating requirement.
Before using an oxygenated fuel, confirm the fuel's contents. Some
states / Provinces require this information to be posted on the pump.
The following are Wacker Neuson approved percentages of
oxygenates:
ETHANOL - (ethyl or grain alcohol) 10% by volume. You may use
gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume (commonly referred
to as E10). E20 and E85 fuels should never be used. They are
alternative gasoline fuel blends containing 20% and 85% ethanol
respectively.
METHANOL - (methyl or wood alcohol) 5% by volume. You may use
gasoline containing up to 5% methanol by volume, as long as it
contains cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel system.
Gasoline containing more than 5% methanol by volume may cause
starting and/or performance problems. It may also damage metal,
rubber, and plastic parts of your fuel system.
If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, try another service
station, or switch to another brand of gasoline.
Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use
of an oxygenated fuel containing more than the percentages of
oxygenates mentioned above are not covered under warranty.
