2.5 Precautions for Work
2.5.1 Compaction operation
■
Do not operate the vibration on a hard location
• Do not work the vibration on a hard surface such as concrete pavement, as this can cause
the machine to jump and give abnormal shock load. Damage to shock isolators will result.
■
Change the direction of travel gently.
• When changing the direction of travel during asphalt mix compaction, slowly shift the F-N-R
lever.
2.5.2 When going downhill
■
Use the F-N-R lever.
• Run slowly going downhill. Do not use excessive speed. Avoid changing speed if possible
when going downhill. Start slowly and end slowly on steep downgrades.
■
Use the engine brake
• Go downhill by applying the engine brake along with the F-N-R lever operation.
WARNING
• When going uphill, run at low speed. Do not attempt to shift speeds during
travelling. The machine can slip down the slope.
• When going downhill, adjust the travel speed not to allow the engine speed to
exceed 2,500 rpm.
2.5.3 On a slope
■
Working on a sidehill
• Work in an uphill/downhill direction, and avoid working on sidehill with the machine
inclining sideways.
