OPERATION
Open the throttle (32) until engine speed is 2200 rpm on
the tachometer (19). Turn the control knob (32) to finely
adjust:
Counterclockwise = increase and clockwise = reduce.
Check that the steering is working by turning the steer-
ing wheel once to the left and once to the right, while
the roller is stationary. The steering should work
smoothly and without jerks or interruption.
Ensure that the area in front of and behind
the roller is clear.
For operation on asphalt, turn on the watering system
(30) for the drum (36) for the tires (Combi). Use the
AUT mode to save water.

operation.
