A Correct use and application
The “Guidelines for the Correct Use and Application of Paver” compiled by Dynapac
are included in the scope of delivery for the present machine. The guidelines are part
of the present operating instructions and must always be followed. Federal, state and
local regulations are fully applicable.
The road construction machine described in these operating instructions is a paver
that is suited for laying mixed materials, roll-down concrete or lean-mixed concrete,
track-laying ballast and unbound mineral aggregates for paving foundations.
This machine shall be used, operated and maintained for the purpose of the intended
work as included in the operation manual. Any other use is regarded as improper use
and can cause injury to persons or damage to the paver or other equipment or prop-
erty.
Any use going beyond the range of applications described above is regarded as im-
proper use and is expressly forbidden! Especially in those cases where the paver is
to be operated on inclines or where it is to be used for special purposes (i.e. construc-
tion of dumps, dams), it is absolutely necessary to contact the manufacturer.
Duties of the user: A “user” within the meaning of the present operating instructions
is defined as any natural or legal person who either uses the paver himself, or on
whose behalf it is used. In special cases (i.e. leasing or renting), the user is consid-
ered the person who, in accordance with existing contractual agreements between
the owner and the user of the paver , is charged with the observation of the operating
duties.
The user must ensure that the paver is only used in the stipulated manner and that
all danger to life and limb of the operator, or third parties, is avoided. In addition to
this, it must be ensured that the relevant accident prevention regulations and other
safety-related provisions as well as the operating, servicing and maintenance guide-
lines are observed. The user must also ensure that all persons operating the equip-
ment have read and understood the present operating instructions.
Mounting attachments: The paver must only be operated in conjunction with
screeds that have been approved by the manufacturer. Mounting or installation of any
attachments that will interfere with or supplement the functions of the paver is permit-
ted only after written approval by the manufacturer has been obtained. If necessary,
the approval of local authorities has to be obtained.
Any approval obtained from local authorities does not, however, make the approval
by the manufacturer unnecessary.
