Fuel is ammable. It may cause injury and property damage. Shut down the engine, extinguish
all open ames and do not smoke while lling the fuel tank. Always wipe up any spilled fuel.
Fuel Safety
• Before re-fuelling, switch o󰀨 the engine and allow it to cool.
• When re-fuelling, use a proper funnel, and avoid spilling over the engine.
• When re-fuelling, DO NOT smoke or allow naked ames in the area.
• Spilt fuel must be made safe immediately by using sand. If fuel is spilt on your clothes, change
them.
• Store fuel in an approved, purpose made container away from heat and sources of ignition.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS (continued)
Health & Safety
Vibration
Some vibration from the compacting operation is transmitted through the handle to
the operator’s hands. Ensure operator rotation and do not exceed the maximum rec-
ommended usage times.
Dust
The compaction process can produce dust, which may be hazardous to your health.
Always wear a mask that is suited to the type of dust being produced.
Fuel
Do not ingest fuel or inhale fuel vapors and avoid contact with your skin. Wash fuel
splashes immediately. If you get fuel in your eyes, irrigate with copious amounts of
water and seek medical attention as soon as possible.
The exhaust fumes produced by this machine are highly toxic and can kill!
Exhaust Fumes
Do not operate the Roller Compactor indoors or in conned spaces. Make sure the work area is

California - Proposition 65 Warning
Engine exhaust and some of its constituents, and some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
Lead from lead based paints - Crystalline silica from bricks -Cement and other masonry
products -Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: ALWAYS work in a well ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to lter out
microscopic particles.

The EVPC120 Roller Compactor is designed for compacting paver slabs into the bedding sand, and to
compact the poly sand into the joints while avoiding cracks, chips, scratches on the paver slabs – and min-
imizing dust! The EVPC120 weighs 271 lbs. and vibrates at a frequency of 5,640 – perfect for the paving
slab applications as well as many other hardscape installations. Powered by the reliable Honda GX160
gasoline-powered engine, and utilizing four special rubber-coated rollers to protect the paver slabs, the
EVPC120 is just the right machine for the professional hardscape contractor.

PRE-START CHECKS
The following pre-start checks must be performed before the start of each work session or after every four
hours of use, whichever is rst. Please refer to the Service and Maintenance section for detailed guidance.
If any fault is discovered, the Roller Compactor must not be used until the fault is rectied.
1. Thoroughly inspect the machine for signs of damage, Make sure all guards are in place and secured.
2. Check hoses, ller openings, drain plugs and other areas for signs of leakage. Fix any leaks before
operating.
3. Check the engine oil level and top up as necessary. Use proper engine oil with the proper viscosity (SAE
10W-30 is recommended).
4. Check the engine fuel level and top us as necessary. Use clean fuel. The use of contaminated fuel may
damage the fuel system.
5. Check the air lter is clean. Excessive dirt/dust accumulation within the lter element will cause erratic
engine operation. Clean the air lter element when it is contaminated (refer to the Service and Mainte-
nance section).
6. Check for fuel and oil leaks.
START/STOP PROCEDURE
Before starting the engine, make sure that the Safety Switch is in the ON position and the Throttle Lever is
set to the idle position.
1. Take the Roller Compactor to where it is required. Use suitable lifting equipment to position the Roller
Compactor where it is necessary. Make sure the lifting equipment has a WLL (Working Load Limit) suit-
able for the Roller Compactor weight. Attach suitable slings or chains only to the lifting point.
2. Never leave the engine running during transporting, even if it is for a short period of time.
3. Having carried out the checks listed in the ‘pre-start’ section, you may start the engine. EZG Pavement
Compactors are tted with a centrifugal clutch which allows the engine to run at idle speed without driv-
ing the Roller Compactor. Centrifugal clutch will be engaged as the speed of engine is increased. For
correct operation, the engine speed should be set to maximum.
Before Starting Gasoline Engine
4. Check the oil in the engine crankcase. Be sure to maintain the proper level per the engine manufacturer
specications. If the oil is dirty and in need of changing, follow the Engine User Manual instructions.
5. Check the fuel supply. Refer to Engine User Manual.

OPERATIONS
1. Run the engine at full throttle and push the Roller Compactor along at a speed to provide
the desired consolidation of the pavers, slabs, etc.
2. When operating on an incline it may be necessary to move in a lateral direction instead
of up and down the incline. 3. Depending on the material being compacted, 3 or 4 passes
are recommended to achieve the best consolidation.
3. When operating downhill hold the Roller Compactor back slightly, if it begins to pick up
speed.
4. Depending on the material being compacted, 3 or 4 passes are recommended to achieve
the best compaction.
SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
The EZG Roller 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 EZG dealer carry out all major maintenance and repairs. Always use genuine EZG
replacement parts, the use of spurious parts may void your warranty. Before any maintenance is carried
out on the machine, switch o󰀨 the engine and disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug. Always set the
machine on level ground to ensure any uid levels will be correctly read. Only use recommended oils.
