1.2.7.4 Cross slope
The tipping angle was measured statically on level, hard ground
with the machine stopped and without steering.
The max. permissible inclination of the machine may be limited by
the max. permissible slanted position of the engine.
The specified angle must not be exceeded.
With loose soil, acceleration/deceleration, running vibration,
steering or attached accessories the tipping angle may be consid-
erably lower.
Driving across slopes should therefore be strictly avoided, because
of the high risk of tipping over and the related risk of severe or
even fatal accidents.
1.2.7.5 Working with vibration
When compacting with vibration you must always check the effect
of the vibration on nearby buildings and underground supply lines
(gas, water, sewage, electric power). If necessary stop compacting
with vibration.
Do not activate the vibration on hard (frozen, concrete) ground.
Components may get damaged.
1.2.7.6 Parking the machine
Park the machine on horizontal, level, firm ground.
Before leaving the machine:
n
shift all control levers to “Neutral position”, “Off” or “0”,
n
apply the parking brake,
n
shut down the engine, pull off the ignition key,
n
pull off the main battery switch,
n
secure the machine against unauthorized use.
Do not jump off the machine, but use hand grips and access steps.
Mark machines, which could be in the way, with a clearly visible
sign.
When parking on ascents or descents use appropriate means to
secure the machine against rolling.
1.2.8 Refuelling
Do not inhale any fuel fumes.
Refuel only with the engine shut down.
Do not refuel in closed rooms.
No open fire, do not smoke.
