INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your selection of Parchem equipment.

Parchem have specialised in the design and manufacture of quality

products since 1951.

We have taken care in the design, manufacture and testing of this

product. Should service or spare parts be required, prompt and

efﬁcient service is available from our branches.

General Safety Instructions for the Operation of Power Equipment

The goal of Parchem is to produce power equipment that helps

the operator work safely and efﬁciently. The most important safety

device for this or any tool is the operator. Care and good judgement

are the best protection against injury. All possible hazards cannot

be covered here, but we have tried to highlight some of the

important items, individuals should look for and obey Caution,

Warning and Danger signs placed on equipment, and displayed in

the workplace. Operators should read and follow safety

instructions packed with each product.

Learn how each machine works. Even if you have previously used

similar machines, carefully check out each machine before you use

it. Get the “feel” of it and know its capabilities, limitations, potential

hazards, how it operates, and how it stops.

APPLICATIONS

Heavy duty concrete vibrators, 28 mm - 60 mm dia. Submersible

pumps, up to 50 mm discharge.

FUNCTION

This portable drive unit is designed to power ﬂexshaft drive

submersible pumps and model VP (pendulum) vibrators. A quick

action 60 mm diameter ﬂexible shaft coupling with aluminium alloy

housing, rotary trigger latch and hardened 45 mm 3-tooth dog drive

enable ease of use by allowing the operator to simply engage or

disengage the ﬂexible shaft coupling, to facilitate either a change of

position or a change of ﬂexshaft driven device.

FUNCTION AND CONTROLS

BELL HOUSING / ROTARY TRIGGER

Is mounted directly to the motor and enables quick connection

between the coupling and the 3-tooth dog drive mounted on the

crankshaft. The rotary trigger latch assures a positive engagement

between drive dogs.

MOTOR

The motor is controlled by a throttle lever mounted on the motor

below the fuel tank.

To STOP the machine TURN the throttle lever to the STOP position.

HAZARDS AND RISKS

NEVER allow any person to operate a machine without adequate

instruction.

ENSURE all operators read, understand and follow the operating

instructions.

SERIOUS INJURY may result from improper or careless use of this

machine

! MECHANICAL HAZARDS

DO NOT operate the machine unless all protective guards are in

place

KEEP hands and feet clear of rotating and moving parts as they will

cause injury if contacted.

BE CAREFUL not to come in contact with the mufﬂer when the

engine is hot, since it can cause severe burns.

ENSURE that the throttle lever is in the STOP position before

removing guards or making adjustments.

ENSURE both the machine and the operator are stable by setting

up on level terrain and the machine will not move or fall while in

operation or unattended.

DO NOT leave the machine in operation while it is unattended.

KEEP bystanders and animals clear of the work area.

ENSURE that repairs to the motor and machine are carried out by

COMPETENT personnel.

! FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS

ENSURE that fuel is only stored in an approved storage container.

DO NOT refuel the motor while it is in operation or hot.

DO NOT refuel the motor in the vicinity of sparks, a naked ﬂame or

a person smoking.

DO NOT overﬁll the fuel tank and avoid spilling fuel when refuelling.

If spillage occurs, ensure that the area is dry before starting the

motor.

ENSURE that the fuel tank cap is securely ﬁtted after refuelling.

! CHEMICAL HAZARDS

DO NOT operate or refuel a diesel motor in a conﬁned area without

adequate ventilation.

! NOISE HAZARDS

EXCESSIVE NOISE can lead to temporary or permanent loss of

hearing.

! ADDITIONAL HAZARDS

Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death.

Beware of excess hose, the ﬂexible shaft and water left on the

walking or work surface.

DO NOT allow waste water to accumulate under foot.

Exercise caution and ensure that the perimeter of elevated

formwork or platforms is protected.

Exercise care when working in the vicinity of unprotected holes or

excavations.

OPERATION

For information on correct starting procedures refer to the engine

manufacturers operation manual.

Before engaging the ﬂexshaft with a diesel drive unit start the motor

using the recoil starter, increase the speed to full throttle and allow

it to warm up for a few minutes. Stop the motor. Turn the bell

housing trigger 180 degrees.

Insert the ﬂexshaft coupling fully into the housing of the drive unit

and release the trigger. Push the coupling into the housing and

twist the ﬂexible shaft until the drive dogs are fully engaged and the

trigger returns to the horizontal position. The motor may now be

started.

Drive units should be operated on a level surface. If the surface is

not level the drive unit should be restrained to ensure that it does

not move due to vibration or the weight of a pump and hose or

vibrator.

CARE AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Check the oil level in the motor crankcase daily.

Check the condition of the drive dog regularly and that the three

tooth drive dogs are fully meshed. The position of the drive dog on

the crank shaft is critical and should also be checked. The correct

distance from the face of the teeth to the face of the bell housing is

73 mm. (2.875 inches).

Worn coupling housings and poorly operating triggers together with

worn grooves in the shaft coupling will lead to a shorter operating

life and should be replaced before they have worn excessively.

SERVICE

Change the oil in the motor crankcase regularly to minimise wear.

Inspect, clean and/or replace the motor air cleaner regularly,

particularly when operating in a dusty environment.

CLEANING AND STORAGE

Keep the unit clean and free of concrete residue.

Ensure the cooling ﬁns on the motor are kept unobstructed.
