■
Immerse the head for 5 to 10 seconds, (until air stops
rising), and then withdraw it slowly to let the concrete fill
the void left by the vibrator head.
■
The vibrator head should be completely below the surface
when vibrating to keep the head cool.
■
When vibrating a thin horizontal slab, the vibrator head
can be used in a horizontal position.
DO NOT insert the vibrator head
into the side of the pile to make
the concrete flow as this practice
can cause segregation of the
aggregate from the mortar.
NOTE
Use the flexible shaft in as straight a position as possible
and do not bend the flexible shaft sharply at any point. Sharp
bends may cause a permanent kink, requiring early
replacement of the flexible shaft.
1. Start the engine as previously described and procede to
insert the vibrator head into the concrete.
2. The concrete is normally placed into the forms in layers
about 12 to 18 inches thick in a manner which forms a
fairly level surface. The vibrator head is inserted
vertically into the top of the pile.
3. When the surface has become fairly level, the vibrator
head then should be immersed and generally moved in
the pattern shown in (Figure 14).
If the shaft begins to helix (buckle) excessively during
operation, stop and investigate. This is an indication of an
overload condition.
CAUTIONCAUTION
CAUTIONCAUTION
CAUTION
Shaft Overload Hazard
The vibrator head is cooled by the concrete. Operation
of the vibrator head in air longer than 2 minutes will
cause overheating of the bearings which result in
premature head failure.
