2.1.4 Operating levers and pedals
Forward-reverse lever (F-R lever) with vibrator switch
Moving the F-R lever forward or backward makes the
machine travel forward or backward respectively. The
neutral position brings the machine to a stop. The vehicle
speed increases or decreases in proportion to the lever
displacement.
The vibrator ON-OFF control is easily made by the F-R
lever top vibrator switch (See page 25).
IMPORTANT
• For normal braking, return the F-R lever back to neutral.
• In an emergency, depress the brake pedal. More powerful braking will take place.
Brake pedal
In an emergency, push down on the pedal to the full extent, and the machine will come to a
sudden stop.
IMPORTANT
Do not use the pedal wherever practicable except for an emergency. If used during
the compacting operation of ashalt pavement, this can cause damage to its surface.
NOTE: Depressing the brake pedal brings the F-R lever into neutral (N).
