DANGER
Danger to life through tipping or slipping of the roller! The ed-
ges of filled areas may give way!
• Only travel directly up or down slopes.
• Do not drive across slopes.
• Keep your distance to embankments and edges!
• Do not drive at an angle into or out of the trench.
• Park the roller on slopes only in such a way that it cannot over-
turn.
• Use the roller on slopes only in such a way that it cannot over-
turn.
• The roller drums have very poor adhesion on snow and ice. Dri-
ving or working on a slope in snow or ice is prohibited.
• Damp a
nd loose surfaces reduce the traction of the machine on
upward and downward grades considerably. Adapt the speed
of the machine to the terrain when driving on grades.
• The nature of the ground and weather conditions can negati-
vely affect the climbing ability of the machine.
Never drive on slopes that are steeper than the maximum clim-
bing ability of the machine.
