I have aquired a wacker. It is a bit old and battered but sort of works! What I would like is some info on the controls and if possible a manual. I really need the info of the locations of the throttle springs and linkages ! The engine is a Robin EY200 and the wacker is made by Fuji Industries. thats about all I can provide as there is no other info on it ! Cn anyone help ?

I can`t help you with this particular model, but if you mean a whacker as apposed to a compactor plate i can give you one general bit of advice.

If you get it started, don`t turn the bloody thing off.

I don`t know what the modern ones are like but the antiquated ones ive had the pleasure of using are a pain in the backside.

You can`t lay them down, you can`t stand em up, to much juice and its flooded, and then before you know it you have fuel starvation. It works all morning with no prob`s then if you look at it the wrong way it will stop, for ever.

It needed saying, and i feel strangely better for it.

Good luck
