Machine control and use
Work gear / Transport gear
The machine is equipped with two gears.
•
Move the switch:
to the right (hare): the hydraulic system switches to the
-
"transport speed" movement level,
-
the machine travels at high speed,
-
to the left (tortoise): the hydraulic system switches to
the "working speed" movement level,
-
the machine travels slowly.
Note
When large / small vibration is switched on, it is only possible to
drive in the working gear.
When the machine is cold, the difference between high speed
and low speed is minimal.
High / low amplitude vibration function
•
Move the switch:
-
toward the top: The machine vibrates with a large am-
plitude,
to the center: The machine does not vibrate,
-
-
toward the bottom: The machine vibrates with a small.
amplitude.
Do not use vibration on steep embankments or at steep
angles!
Do not vibrate inside buildings and on unstable ground!
Danger to life through slipping or caving in of the
machine!
Note
Never use vibration while at a standstill! If the large / small vibra-
tion function is activated for more than 15 seconds while at a
standstill, the machine controller shuts it off automatically.
The high amplitude vibration is only available on a cold ma-
chine after 5 minutes of vibration running, after the vibrator
lubricant has warmed up. Until then, the machine vibrates only
with a small amplitude.

WORK AND TRANSPORT GEARS
When it is vibrated on the spot, the vibration will be
switched off after 30 seconds automatically.
If you activate the vibration function at transport speed,
the machine will automatically reduce the speed to
working speed.
When the vibration is switched off, the machine will ac-
celerate to transport speed again.
