  • Page 30: Visual Inspection

    VISUAl INSPECTION Operation Make a thorough inspection of the engine compartment daily. Look for oil or coolant leaks, worn fan belt, loose connections and trash build-up. Remove trash build-up and have repairs made as needed if leaks are found. NOTE: Wipe all fittings, caps, and plugs before performing any maintenance to reduce the chance of system contamination.
  • Page 31: To Operate

    TO OPERATE Operation Apply full throttle and move forward/reverse lever slowly forward to gain speed desired. Use the same procedure for reverse. To slow down move forward/reverse lever towards neutral. To gain power or speed, move the forward/reverse lever slightly off neutral. This will pro- duce the greatest amount of torque.
  • Page 32: Parking The Machine

    PARkING THE MACHINE Operation Always use care when parking the machine. Do not park on unstable ground or in an unsafe position. Observe the following caution: Never park the roller on an incline. The roller may creep forward or reverse even when engine is off. Tipping may occur resulting in personal injury or engine damage.
  • Page 33: Seat

    During a roll-over: Operation • Grip the steering wheel tightly with both hands and wait until the roller comes to rest. • Press the Emergency Stop Button. • Dismount the roller immediately if it is safe to do so. Horn The horn should be used as a warning to others.

This illustration in will have an effect on the hour meter readings.
  • Page 36: Compaction Tips

    Operation COMPACTION TIPS Avoid sharp turns, steer gradually. If articulation is a new concept, we suggest the opera- tor take 20 minutes or so to get used to the feel of the unit. Recommended compaction speed should be at 3 m.p.h. or less to achieve a uniform compaction. WARNING Do not articulate on grades larger than 15”, roller may tip over.
  • Page 37: Tie Downs

    TIE DOWNS Operation The roller is equipped with front and rear tie down points for shipping purposes. Use only these points to secure unit. Tie downs may be used in emergency or breakdown. • When loaded, the roller must be secured using chains, ropes, straps, etc. of suf- ficient strength to hold the roller safely in all circumstances.
  • Page 38: Towing (Bypass)

    Operation TOWING (BYPASS) WARNING Never push or pull the roller with the engine off. When engine is not running, the brake is applied. When the engine is running and the forward/reverse lever is in NEUTRAL, the brake will apply within 2 seconds. In an emergency or during a breakdown, it may be necessary or desirable to tow the roller.
