Assembly
Frame and assembly: Robust, distortion-resistant steel welded design with useful
brackets for supporting the assemblies, units, attachments and tanks. All parts can
be easily accessed for maintenance and repair work.
Operator’s control station: The operator’s control station, conveniently located at
the rear of the machine affording good all-round visibility, can be reached via a ladder
and is equipped with a driver’s seat on the right-hand side.
From the operator’s control station on the right-hand side of the machine, the planer
is easy and safe to operate, affording good visibility and corresponding ease of mon-
itoring for the planing process.
Controls at operator’s control station: A convenient operating and control element
comprising all the requisite switching and display elements.
The securely arranged controls are obviously marked for all applications.
The steering system involves the use of a steering wheel while travel is controlled by
means of a drive lever.
All requisite machine settings such as milling depth and angle adjustment can be per-
formed comfortably from the operator’s control station.
Access to all major switching and connection points, as well as to all maintenance lo-
cations, can be locked.
Engine: The machine is equipped with a powerful 6 cylinder Cummins diesel engine
which effortlessly covers the performance requirements of this planer with its power
rating of 129 Kw.
Compliance is maintained with emission values as defined in the U.S. EPA exhaust
standard and the European COM2 exhaust standard. The engine covers are insulat-
ed from noise as standard, enabling noise emissions to personnel and the surround-
ing area to be reduced to a minimum.
Milling section: The mechanically high-strength V-belt-driven milling drum is located
between the two rear chassis legs. The right-hand chassis leg can be swivelled in
front of the milling drum.
The milling drum rotates in the opposite direction to the machine’s direction of travel.
The professional bit arrangement and equipping with the best cutting tools ensures
rapid and clean milling as well as high bit life.
On the standard drum, with a milling width of 1000 mm, the bit can be replaced via
the rear milling drum flap, thereby keeping downtime to a minimum for replacement
purposes.
The milling drum is bolted to the housing of the mechanical drive and can be replaced
easily and quickly after removing the right-hand housing plate.
