engine powers the hydraulic systems that provide machine movement and drum vibration.

The vibrating drums smooth and compact the work surface as the machine moves. Machine

speed, direction, and vibration are controlled by the operator from the operator’s seat on the

platform.

The machine is designed as a lightweight roller to be used in the compaction of sub layers

and finish layers of asphalt on roads, driveways, parking lots, and other types of asphalt-

covered surfaces.

This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use described above.

Using the machine for any other purpose could permanently damage the machine or

risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:

 Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine

 Burns from hot hydraulic fluid

 Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques

 Fuel and its fumes

 Personal injury from improper lifting techniques

 Crushing hazards from improper operation (feet, legs, or arms extending outside of the
