Transport on steep ground
During the transport on steep ground (slope >5%), be careful to
not exceed the roller's maximum speed.
Take your foot off the throttle pedal and use the engine brake
system. Also use the main brake if the speed keeps increasing.
Selecting the low speed will increase the engine brake system
efficacy and also the life of the braking system.
Operation and transport on steep ground
Always
drive the machine in slow speed when operating or
during transport on steep ground.
(>15%).
To drive or stop the machine, the rear wheels shall
always
be
towards the slope, that is, the roller shall go up normally and
shall go down in reverse.
Make sure there are no obstacles both in front or
behind your work area.
Driving near edges
When driving close to edges or holes, make sure that at least
¼ of the tires is on the compacted ground.
