the handlebar at its centre position and moving at low speed). Once the mass is in motion, the
inertia helps to reduce the roller resistance which in turn decreases the risk of slippage.
Before performing any levelling or sowing activities on a humid surface, it is recommended to put
the machine into motion before lowering the vibrating harrows to work depth. After all: vibrating
harrows tucking into the soil increase roller resistance which at the start inevitably causes the
rollers to slip.
B. Turning
Since traction mainly comes from one roller when the machine turns, this can induce slippage
on a humid surface (limited grip force combined with extra resistance from turning and starting).
The best method to turn the machine is to briefly continue in a straight line with well-dosed
traction on both rollers, and to then gradually slow down the inner roller until it stops whilst
simultaneously increasing the traction speed on the outer roller; this procedure will make the
machine turn in one smooth movement.

Riding a sideways slope
Work terrains are very often slanted or
sloped. When working on a slope, the machine will be inclined to bear off towards the valley. To
compensate for this, one must increase traction on the roller located at the valley-side. This can
be achieved easily by counter-steering.
Caution:
While riding on a slope, the engine may suddenly stop running. This has to do
with the engine’s oil safety (Read § 9.8.2 Engine stops running during the work).

General remarks
Caution:
Speed must be reduced while advancing to the work area. The higher the speed,
the quicker the reaction required when running into obstacles and the greater
the inertia forces that need to be controlled.
Warning:
Obstacles in the surface may cause a difference in grip force which may provoke
a sudden unintentional turning movement. Be alert.
