The roller may only be used for driving and compacting unbound layers (gravel, soil) and blacktops (asphalt). Other uses are prohibited.

Rollers may only be operated with all safety devices. Manipulation or disregard of safety devices and regulations invalidates the CE conformity.

Before starting every shift, check the effectiveness of the operation and safety devices and that the protection devices are in place.

Check the steering and brakes when you start work. If defects are apparent roller operation is not permitted.

If you identify any defects on the safety system or defects that impair safe operation of the equipment, inform your supervisor immediately. The roller may no longer be operated.

If you identify any defects which endanger safe operation, cease operation immediately.

Only perform work on and clean the roller if it is stationary and secured from rolling away.

Switch off the engine when filling the fuel tank. Do not fill up fuel in closed rooms.

No open flames.

Do not vibrate on slopes or inclines where there is a hazard of slipping or overturning.

Do not drive on slopes that are steeper than the maximum climbing capacity of the equipment. Always drive the roller carefully perpendicular to the slope dip.

Do not vibrate inside buildings and on instable ground.

Keep the driver’s position and steps free of trips, grease, dirt, ice, etc.

The driving and working field of view may not be obstructed in any way. Adjust all the necessary mirrors correctly and keep them clean.

Switch off the engine before leaving the roller. Secure the roller from unauthorized start-up and rolling away.
