USE
SWEPAC FB 465
is used to pack ballast under foundations, in connection with road
building, in trenches, etc. On account of the forward/reverse func-
tion, the machine is very suitable for packing in tight spaces and as
a complement to larger packing equipment. The innitely variable
speed control makes it possible to move with great precision and to
pack without moving.

STANDARDS
Noise
Measurement in accordance with the standard EN 500-4
Rev. 1:1998, Annex C:
In accordance with the conditions in Directive 2000/14/EC,
Annex VI, the following values are reported:
As the sound pressure level at the operator’s ears exceeds
85 dB (A), ear protectors must be used during operation!
Hand/arm vibrations
The vibration acceleration was measured in accordance
with the ISO 5349 standard during operation on a surface
of macadam. The measurement values were translated
into the maximum daily exposure time for regular usage.
For additional information about vibrations, please confer
the regulation AFS 2005:15 from the Swedish Work
Environment Authority, effective July 1st 2005.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•Before using the machine, the operator must be informed
of the manufacturer’s safety instructions and instructions
for use.
•The machine may only be used outdoors.
•The machine may not be used if protection and safety
devices are not present or not working.
•The operator may not leave the machine unattended when
the engine is on. When the vibrator is connected, the
operator must be able to control the movement of the
machine using the control handle and the start/stop
controls. The machine may be operated only by a trained
operator.
•During maintenance work or other interventions in the
machine, the engine must always be off.
•Switch the engine off before adding fuel. Avoid fuel
spillage and immediately wipe off any spilled fuel. Add
fuel only in well ventilated areas.
•Avoid touching hot engine parts, for example the silencer.
•Before lifting the machine, check that the lifting device
and its mounting are not damaged and that the rubber
dampers on the base plate are undamaged and tightened.
•During transportation and storage, the fuel tank should be
empty and the fuel cock switched off.
•When the machine is parked, ensure that it cannot tip
over. The machine may not incline more than 20º.
•The operator must use ear protectors when working with
the machine.
•The operator must ensure that no unauthorised persons
are in the immediate vicinity of the machine.

Before use, carefully read the manual and its safety instruc-
tions so that you can handle the machine safely. Ensure that
the manual is always accessible.
As the sound pressure level at the operator’s ears exceeds 85
dB (A), ear protectors must be used when working with the
machine to prevent hearing damage.
Engine, silencer: to avoid burns or discomfort, do not touch
hot engine parts when the engine is on or when the machine
has recently been used.

TECHNICAL DATA METHOD OF OPERATION
The machine consists of a base plate with a vibration
element and an upper part cushioned from the base plate.
The cushioning between the base plate and the upper part
consists of four rubber dampers. The upper part, on which
the drive engine is mounted, is also designed as a hydraulic
oil tank. The control handle is placed on the upper part and
cushioned with rubber dampers. The vibration element is
driven and the direction of travel is changed by means of hy-
draulics. The hydraulic pump, mounted on the diesel engine,
supplies a hydraulic motor on the vibration element with an
oil ow. The vibration element consist of two shafts on roller
bearings with bias weights that are connected to gear wheels
that rotate in opposite directions. One gear wheel can rotate
on its shaft by means of a hydraulic cylinder. This changes
the mutual phase positions of the eccentric weights and the
direction of travel of the machine, and the speed is changed
innitely variably. All parts are well protected against da-
mage in connection with use and transportation by a sturdy
protective frame with a hood of impact-resistant polythene.

Fuel Check
Check that there is fuel in the tank. Top up if necessary.
Engine Oil Level Check
Check the oil level in the crankcase every day. The oil must
reach the edge of the lling hole when the machine is on a
level surface.
Air Filter Check
The air lter must be checked at least once every working
week.

4. Cap
Cleaning
1. Remove the cap and empty out the dust which has
collected. Wipe the cap with a damp cloth.
2. Carefully remove the lter element and wipe the inside of
the lter housing clean.
3. Blow the lter clean with dry compressed air, max. 5 bar,
from the inside until no more dust comes out.
Throw the lter element away:
−if it has been cleaned ve times.
−if it is damaged.
−after 1000 operating hours or maximum 12 months.
Safety Cartridge
This is normally replaced after around 3000 operating hours
or if the main lter is damaged.
To replace it, remove the lter set as described above and t
a new safety cartridge.
DAILY CHECKS Oil/Fuel Leakage
Check every day that the engine is not leaking oil or fuel. If
a leak is discovered, the machine may not be operated until
the fault has been remedied.
Hydraulic Oil Level Check
Check every day that the hydraulic connections do not
leak or wear during operation. Check the oil level with the
dipstick on the top of the tank. The level must be between
“MIN” and “MAX”.
Vibration Element
Check regularly that there is no oil leak. If you suspect a
leak, check the level at the level screw on the vibration ele-
ment. If necessary, add oil up to the lower edge of the level
hole when the vibrator is horizontal. Seal any leaks. Note!
Machines must never be operated if a leak is suspected.
Rubber Dampers
Check the condition of the rubber dampers regularly. Re-
place damaged dampers.

3. Throttle lever
In very cold weather or if the battery capacity is low for
a different reason, starting can be facilitated using the
decompression handle in connection with the valve housing.
Press the lever down and hold it down until the ywheel has
reached its maximum RPM. Run the engine warm for around
5 minutes.
See Daily Checks on page 8.
BEFORE STARTING
STARTING
STOPPING
Open the hood.
Open the fuel cock.
Switch the main power switch, located on the instrument
panel inside the protective cover, to the position “I”.
Close the hood.
Note! The vibration power switch on the handle must
be in the position “vibration off” (red/green marking).
Otherwise the machine cannot be started.
Switch the throttle lever (3) to the full RPM position (green
marking).
Start the engine with the power switch (1). Place the knob
in the central position and check that the charging and oil
pressure lamps (2) light up. Then press the power switch
down (green marking).
Note! Never run the starter motor for longer than 10 seconds
at a time. If the engine does not start, wait 15 seconds before
trying to start it again.
Switch the throttle lever (3) to idle and let the engine run for
a few minutes.
Press the engine power switch (1) upwards (red marking).
Stop the engine by moving the throttle lever to the stop posi-
tion (red marking).
At the End of the Day
Open the hood.
Switch off the main power switch, “O” position.
Close the fuel cock.
Close the hood.

The vibrator is started and stopped with the power switch on
the handle.
When the control hoop on the handle is moved backwards,
the machine reverses and when the hoop is moved forwards,
the machine moves forwards. The speed is controlled by
how long the control hoop is activated.
The machine is only designed to be used outdoors. Work
with the machine in daylight or other adequate lighting.
Ballast must be wetted or naturally damp. All other use is
discouraged.
Note! When moving up a slope, the machine should be
reversed.
The machine may not incline more than 20º when in use or
parked.
Handle Heating
For increased comfort, the machine has an electrically hea-
ted handle. The handle heating is activated with the power
switch on the handle and can only be used when the vibrator
is connected, which prevents the heating coil from dischar-
ging the battery when the machine is not being used.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS TRANSPORTATION
The machine is tted with a lifting hawser that can be folded
in under the hood when it is not in use.
Check before lifting that the lifting eye and its mounting
on the machine are undamaged. Check also that the base
plate’s rubber dampers are undamaged and rmly attached.
For transportation by vehicle, the handle must be folded
forwards and locked with the transport locking device. The
machine must then be secured with, for example, approved
straps. Note! Secure it by the base plate and not the rubber-
cushioned upper part.
