OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Transport gear selector 2
When the gear selector is on, the transport gear is en-
gaged (”rabbit” signal lamp of the selector is on). The
machine can reach the maximum speed at reduced
towing power and reduced climbing capacity.
NOTE:
When the selector is off, the working gear mode is select-
ed. The machine can reach the maximum towing power
and climbing capacity - see pre-selector 3.
! NOTE !
Selector 2 - transport gear - can be
activated when driving on finished sur-
face.
It is possible to activate the selector
while loaded.
Should towing power be insufficient,
turn the transport gear selector off.
Do not activate the selector
while working with the ma-
chine!
Do not turn the selector off at
higher speeds - this will
cause rapid deceleration and
impact in the hydraulic sys-
tem. Turn the selector off at
low speeds or when the
machine is stopped!
Working gear pre-selector 3
Use the pre-selector to choose one of three working
gears in both directions obr. 20. Maximum speeds reached
in pre-selector ”1” to ”3” positions correspond to common
working speeds used for compacting and are factory-pre-
set. The machine can reach the maximum towing power
(climbing capacity) in position ”3”.
! NOTE !
Pre-selector 3 can only be operated if
selector 2 is off.
Use positions 1 and 2 of the pre-selector
on even surface only.
Use position 3 of the pre-selector when
climbing.
