12ServicingMaintenanceThe Belle Group ‘PCX’ range of Single Direction Plate Compactors are designed to give many years of trouble free operation. It is,however, important that the simple regular maintenance listed in this section is carried out.It is recommended that an approved Belle Group dealer carries out all major maintenance and repairs. Always use genuine BelleGroup replacement parts, the use of spurious parts may void your warranty.Before any maintenance is carried out on the machine, switch off the engine. If working on a petrol engined machine, disconnectthe HT lead from the sparkplug. If working on a diesel engine, make sure that the stop switch is in the stop position. Always set thecompactor on level ground to ensure any fluid levels will be correctly read. Only use recommended oils (see chart on following page).Running In PeriodWhen the compactor is first used from new, the engine oil must be changed after the initial running in period (see engine manual forfull detail). The vibrator shaft case oil must be replaced after the first 100 hours use, then after every 500 working hours. For detail onvibrator shaft case oil replacement, see ‘Vibrator unit’. The belt tension should be checked after 4 hours use.Drive BeltRemove the belt guard then check the belt tension by placing light finger pressure on the top of the belt, as near central between theengine drive and vibrator pulley. The belt should deflect by between 5mm and 10mm. If the belt tension requires adjustment, loosenthe four engine mount bolts enough to allow the engine to be moved. Adjust the engine’s position by turning the tension bolt clockwiseto increase belt tension, anti-clockwise to decrease. Once set, retighten the engine mount bolts and check the belt tension a secondtime. Finally, replace the belt guard ensuring it is correctly and securely fitted.GBRoutine Maintenance First 4 First month / 3 Months 6 monthshours 20Hours 50 Hours 100 HoursEngine Oil Check Level Change Air Filter Check Condition/Clean Spark Plug Change Drive Belt Tension Replace when necessary / Every 12 monthsOil / Fuel Type & Quantity - Spark Plug TypeOil type Quantity Fuel Type Capacity Spark Plug Electrode(Litre) (Litre) Type Gap (mm)Petrol Honda GX160 S.A.E. 10W 40 0.6 Unleaded 3.6 BM6ES or 0.6 - 0.7BPR6ESVibrator Turbine Oil 32 0.4 N/A N/A N/A N/AVibrator Unit.Remove the plug complete with seal, check that the oil level reaches the bottom thread on the oilplug hole.
