3.1 General work safety
●
The roller may only be used for driving and compacting unbound layers (gravel,
soil) and blacktops (asphalt). Other uses are prohibited.
●
Rollers may only be operated with all safety devices. Manipulation or disregard of
safety devices and regulations invalidates the CE conformity.
●
Before starting every shift, check the effectiveness of the operation and safety de-
vices and that the protection devices are in place.
●
Check the steering and brakes when you start work. If defects are apparent roller
operation is not permitted.
●
If you identify any defects on the safety system or defects that impair safe opera-
tion of the equipment, inform your supervisor immediately. The roller may no lon-
ger be operated.
●
If you identify any defects which endanger safe operation, cease operation imme-
diately.

ling away.
