Transport on steep ground
During the transport on steep ground (slope >5%), be careful to
not exceed the roller's maximum speed.
Selecting the low speed will increase the engine brake system
efficacy and also the life of the braking system.
Operation and transport on steep ground
Always drive the machine in slow speed when operating or
during transport on steep ground.
(>15%).
To drive or stop the machine, the rear wheels shall always be
towards the slope, that is, the roller shall go up normally and
shall go down in reverse.
Make sure there are no obstacles both in front or
behind your work area.
Driving near edges
Never operate with the tires outside the edge, the
substrate might not have full bearing strength or the
edge is close to a slope.
Keep in mind that the machine's center of gravity
moves outwards when steering. For example, the
center of gravity moves to the right when you steer
to the left.
Avoid operating close to edges and ditches and the like as well as
on poor ground conditions that jeopardizes the tires strength and
capacity to support the machine. Pay attention to potential
obstacles above the machine, such as overhead cables and the
branches of trees etc.
Pay particular attention to the stability of the substrate when
compacting close to edges and holes. Do not compact with a large
overlap from the previous track in order to maintain tires stability.
