NEVER Run engine without air cleaner. Severe engine damage may occur.

ALWAYS read, understand, and follow procedures in Operator’s Manual before attempting to operate equipment.

ALWAYS be sure the operator is familiar with proper safety precautions and operations techniques before using roller.

ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children.

DO NOT operate this roller with hydrostatic oil temperature higher than 180 degrees fahrenheit.

NEVER leave the roller unattended, turn off engine and place parking brake lever in upright position.

CAUTION must always be observed while servicing this roller. Rotating parts can cause injury if contacted.

DO NOT leave roller with engine running.

If the roller must be stopped on an incline (grade), remove the ignition key and place chock blocks (not provided) under the front and rear drums.

NEVER drive the roller on unshored trenches or near steep, unsupported banks.The vibration caused by the roller could cause a cave-in.

ALWAYS use extreme care when operating near obstructions, on slippery surfaces, grades and side slopes.

ALWAYS wear slip resistant safety shoes or boots.

Unauthorized equipment modifications will void all warranties.

When working on slopes, avoid sidehill travel. Operate up and down travel only. Remember, the danger of sliding on and/or tripping on steep slopes is always present.

ALWAYS wear seat belts.

When malfunctions occur, always remove the ignition key and place a "DO NOT OPERATE " sign in the operator's seat.

If a malfunction occurs with the travel lever mechanism, speed and direction will be impossible to control. Immediately stop the roller and correct the problem.

If the steering system operates improperly, immediately stop the engine and apply the parking brake.

In the event of hydraulic hose or line failure, promptly return the travel lever to the “neutral” position, stop the engine and set the parking brake.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

NEVER lubricate components or attempt service on a running machine.

ALWAYS allow the machine a proper amount of time to cool before servicing.

Keep the machinery in proper running condition.

Fix damage to the machine immediately and always replace broken parts, or missing decals.

Dispose of hazardous waste properly.Examples of potentially hazardous waste are used motor oil, fuel and fuel filters.

DO NOT use food or plastic containers to dispose of hazardous waste.

DO NOT pour waste, oil or fuel directly onto the ground, down a drain or into any water source.
