NOTE Please also bear the following in mind:
• When large/small vibration is switched on, it is only possible to drive in the
working gear.
• When the machine is cold, the difference between high speed and low
speed is minimal.
7.3.5 Large/small amplitude vibration
1 Move the switch:
2a Toward the top: The roller vibrates with a large amplitude.
2b To the center: The roller does not vibrate.
2c Toward the bottom: The roller vibrates with a small amplitude.
NOTE Damage to material due to harsh vibration movement.
• Never use vibration while at a standstill! If the large/small vibration function
is activated for more than 15seconds while at a standstill, the machine con-
troller shuts it off automatically.
• When first started, it is only possible to use the small amplitude vibration
function for the first 2minutes.
7.4 Safety and monitoring equipment
7.4.1 Brake
The machine is equipped with an hydraulic service brake. It is switched on automati-
cally when no function is being executed.
NOTE When a function is once again performed, there may be a jerking movement.
This has no effect on the stability of the machine.
7.4.2 Close proximity and distant shutdown
The close proximity and distant shutdown function is an electronic safety feature
designed to prevent the operator from loosing visual contact with the machine and to
keep it from coming to close.
WARNING
Danger to life through slipping or caving in of the roller!
• Do not use vibration on steep embankments or at steep angles!
• Do not vibrate inside buildings and on unstable ground!
