SAFETY
1-7. Starting
• Start the machine only from the driver’s seat and always wear the seat belt.
• Watch that the warning lights and indicators during start-up and shutdown are working in
accordance with operating instructions.
• Watch that no one is in danger before starting and when moving the machine.
• Check that braking, steering, signals and lights are fully functional before starting work or
traveling with the machine.
1-8. Operating
• Always make sure that there are no obstructions or persons in your line of travel before
starting the compactor in motion.
• Never climb on and off the machine while it is in motion.
• Always remain seated with the seat belt fastened when traveling, compacting or loading or
unloading the machine.
• Use caution and be very observant when operating in close quarters and congested areas.
• Obey all traffic regulations when working on public roads and make sure machine is
compatible with these regulations.
• Never carry passengers.
• Know and use the hand signals for particular jobs and who has the responsibility for
signaling.
• Do not work close to edges or in the vicinity of overhanging banks or on grades that could
cause the compactor to slide or roll over. Avoid any areas that may be a risk to machine
stability.
• Avoid side hill travel. Always operate up and down the slope. Always keep the propulsion
(travel control) lever in low speed range when climbing or descending hills or steep grades.
• Make sure there is sufficient clearance when crossing underpasses, bridges and tunnels or
when passing under overhead power lines.
• Never allow anyone to stand in the articulation area of the machine when the engine is
running.
• Always look in all directions before reversing the direction of travel.
• Always switch on the lighting system (if equipped) during poor visibility conditions and after
dark.
• Do not attempt to control the compactor travel speed with the throttle control. Maintain
engine speed at the full operating RPM.
• Do not run the engine in a closed building for an extended period of time. Exhaust fumes
can kill.
1-9. Stopping
• Always park the machine in a safe area on solid and level ground. If this is not possible,
always park at a right angle to the slope and block the drums or tires.
• Do not leave the operator’s platform with the engine running. Always move the travel lever
to neutral position and apply the parking brake then turn the starter switch to OFF.
• Lock all lockable compartments.
• Park behind a safe barrier, use proper flags, and warning devices, especially when parking
in areas of heavy traffic.
