Use and Care Manual

Operator Presence System

The machine is equipped with an “operator presence system”. This system is part of the

seat and senses the weight of an operator in the seat. During operation, if the operator

leaves the seat, the engine will shut down

When the operator sits down again, the forward/reverse control must be placed in the

neutral position before the roller can be moved or the vibration can be started. The engine

will need to be restarted to continue operation.

Note: A one-half second delay keeps the system from tripping when the roller passes over

a bump.

If the roller is supplied with an adjustable seat, it can be adjusted as follows:

 Knob (a) for adjusting the seat tension to the operator's weight.

 Lever (b) for adjusting the distance from the seat to the controls.

Note: Do not change position of the operator’s seat while the machine is moving. The

“OPERATOR PRESENCE” safety device will prevent all machine movements if an

operator is not seated.

WARNING

Possibility of injury.

► Always wear the seat belt provided when operating the roller.
