1.1 Basic data

Machine description

Tandem machine with an articulated frame and two smooth
drums. Both drums are hydrostatic-driven and vibrating. The
rear drum vibration is switchable. The concept of the frame al­lows compacting close to the walls and elevated kerbs on both
sides of the machine. It is convenient for works within con­strained areas due to its small dimensions and short turning ra­dius. The operator’s post provides perfect control of both edges
of the drums.

Combined machines have only afront smooth vibrating drum.
The rear axle consists of tyres with smooth shoes (compactor).

Safety measures given in the individual chapters of the tech­nical documentation supplied with the machine must be sup­plemented with safety precautions in the workplace in force
within the respective country where the machine is used, with
respect to organization of work, working process and personnel
involved.

2.1.1.1 Before compacting works are started

• The building contractor (machine user) is liable to issue
instructions for operators and maintenance workers that
include requirements to provide for safe operation of the
machine.

• Before the compacting works are started, he must verify:

- utility lines

- underground areas (direction, depth)

- seepage or sudden escape of harmful substances

- ground-bearing capacity, travel plane slope

- other obstacles and specify work safety measures.

He must make the machine operator carrying out the earth
works familiar with the above items.

• He must specify atechnological procedure including awork-
ing process for the specic job that species among others:

- measures for works under extraordinary conditions
(works within protection zones, extreme slopes, etc.)

- precautions for any natural disaster hazards

- work performance requirements and observance of
principles of health and safety at work

- technical and organizational measures to ensure safety
of employees, workplaces and surroundings.

He must make the machine operators provably familiar with
the technological procedure.

2.1.1.2 Work in the dangerous area

Any damage to the utility lines must be immediately reported
to their provider, and at the same time measures must be taken
to prevent unauthorized persons from entering the dangerous
area.

The worker is not allowed to work alone in aworkplace where
another worker is not in sight and within an ear shot who if nec­essary will be able to provide help or call for help unless another
eective form of supervision or communication is ensured.

2.1 Main safety precautions

2.1.1.3 Ensurance of safety measures
bytheprovider

• He must ensure that the machine is operated only under
conditions and only for purposes it is technically capable of
according to conditions specied by the manufacturer and
respective standards.

• He must ensure that the machine is used only in such away
and in such aworkplace where there is no risk of transmis­sion of dangerous vibrations and damage to nearby facili­ties, etc.

• He must ensure aregular inspection of operation and techni-
cal condition, and regular machine maintenance in intervals
according to the lubrication and maintenance instructions.
If the technical condition of the machine does not meet re­quirements to such an extent that the machine endangers
safety of operation, persons and property, or damages and
impairs the environment, it must be put out of service until
the defects are removed.

• He must specify who is allowed to carry out operation, main-
tenance and repairs of the machine as well as what activities
can be carried out in such cases.

• Every person who drives the machine or performs mainte-
nance and repairs of the machine must be familiarised with
instructions stated in the operating manual of the machine.

• He must ensure that the re extinguisher is checked on
regular basis.

• He must ensure that the "Operating manual" is available at
adesignated location in the machine.

• He must ensure continuous supervision by an appointed
person during machine operation on public roads and is li­able in particular for releasing instructions to ensure health
protection and work safety.

• He must ensure that dangerous substances (fuel, oils, cool-
ant, etc.) must be removed from places of leakage according
to their nature to avoid their adverse impact on the environ­ment, safety of operation and human health.

2.1.1.4 Protective ROPS frame

When the ROPS protection frame is used:

• the machine frame must not be damaged (broken, bent,
etc.) in the connection point

• the protective ROPS frame itself must not show corrosion,
cracks or breaks

• the protective ROPS frame must not be loose during opera-
tion of the machine

• all bolted connections must meet requirements of the spec-
ication and must be tightened to the specied torque

• bolts must not be damaged, distorted and must not show
rust marks.

• Additional modications must not be carried out on the
protective ROPS frame without the approval of the manu­facturer because they can result in decrease of its strength
(e.g. holes, welding, etc.).

• The machine weight must not exceed the maximum permis-
sible weight according to the protective ROPS frame.

OPERATING MANUAL

2.1.2 Requirements for the qualication
ofmachine operators

Only aperson having been trained according to ISO 7130 and
other local and national instructions and standards specied for
operators of this group of machines, is allowed to operate the
machine.

23ARX 23-2 T4i, ARX 26-2 T4i

2.1 Main safety precautions

2.1.3 Driver's obligations

• Before starting operation of the machine, the machine op-
erator is obliged to get familiar with instructions stated in
the documentation supplied together with the machine,
especially with safety precautions, and strictly observe
the instructions. This also applies to personnel assigned to
maintain, adjust and repair the machine. (In case you do not
understand some parts of the manuals, contact the nearest
dealer or the manufacturer.)

• He may drive the machine only if he is fully familiarized with
all functions of the machine and working and operating el­ements and knows precisely how to operate the machine.

• The driver is obliged to follow the safety signs located on the
machine and keep them legible.

• Before starting the work, the operator must get familiar with
the workplace environment, i.e. with obstructions, slopes,
utility line system and with necessary types of workplace
protections with respect to the surroundings (noise, vibra­tion, etc.).

• The operator while working with the machine must be fas-
tened with the safety belt.

• The safety belt and its brackets must not be damaged.

• When there is arisk to health, human life, property, failures,

2.2 Environmental and hygiene principles

2.2.1 Hygiene principles

When operating and storing the machines, the user is
obliged to observe general principles of health and envi­ronmental protection, and laws and regulations relating
to the given points at issue within the territory where the
machine is used.

• Petroleum products, cooling system uids, battery uids
and coating compounds including thinners are substances
harmful to health. Workers coming into contact with the
above products during operation or maintenance of the
machine are obliged to follow general principles of their
own health protection and comply with safety and hygienic
manuals made by manufacturers of the products.

In particular we draw your attention to the following:

- protect your eyes and skin while working with the bat­teries

- protect your skin while handling petroleum products,
coating compounds and coolants

- wash your hands properly after nishing the work and
before eating, treat your hands with asuitable repara­tion cream

- when handling cooling systems, follow instructions giv­en in the manuals supplied with the machine.

• Always store petroleum products, cooling system uids, bat-
tery cartridges and coating compounds including organic
thinners, and also cleaners and preserving agents in original
and properly labelled containers. These materials are not al­lowed to be stored in unlabelled bottles or in any other con­tainers considering the possible risk of confusion. Possible
confusion with foodstus or beverages is very dangerous.

• If by accident the skin, eyes or mucous membrane is stained
or if you breathe in the vapours of such products, apply im­mediately the principles of the rst aid. In case of accidental
ingestion of these products, immediately seek medical help.

• When working with a machine that is not provided with
acab or when the cab windows are open, always use ear
protectors of suitable type and version.

2.2.2 Environmental principles

• Discarded operating uids of individual systems of the ma-
chine and also some of its parts become hazardous wastes
with dangerous properties for the environment.

This category of waste products includes in particular:

- organic and synthetic lubricating materials, oils and fu­els;

- coolants;

- battery uids and batteries;

- cleaning and preservative agents;

- all dismounted lters and lter cartridges,

- all used and discarded hydraulic or fuel hoses, rubber­metal elements and other parts of the machine contam­inated by the above mentioned products.

It is necessary to treat the above mentioned materials
and parts after they have been discarded in accordance
with relevant national regulations applicable to environ­mental and health protection.

34 ARX 23-2 T4i, ARX 26-2 T4i

2.3 Preservation and storage

2.3.1 Short-term preservation and storage
for1–2 months

Wash and clean the entire machine carefully. Before parking the
machine for preservation and storage, run the engine to warm it
up to its operating temperature. Park the machine on asolid and
at surface at asafe place with no risk of natural disaster (oods,
landslides, re, etc.) for the machine.

In addition:

• repair paints where damaged.

• lubricate all lubrication points

• conrm that water llings are drained

• check that the coolant has the required antifreeze proper-
ties

• check that the batteries are charged and/or recharge them
if necessary

• lubricate chromed surfaces of piston rods with preservative
grease

• We recommend you to protect the machine against corro-
sion with apreservative coating (applied by spraying), espe­cially where corrosion can occur.

2.3.2 Preservation and storage of the
machine for aperiod over 2 months

For machine shut-down, the same principles are applicable as
for the short-term preservation.

In addition it is recommended to:

• remove the batteries, check for condition and store them in
acool and dry room (charge the batteries regularly)

• support the drum frame so that the shock-absorbing system
shows minimal sag

• protect the rubber elements by coating with special pre-
servative agent

• cover the suction and exhaust pipe of the engine with dou-
ble PE foil and tighten it carefully with sealing tape

• spray aspecial liquid on the headlights, external rear-view
mirrors and other elements of the external electrical instal­lation and wrap in PE foil to protect them

• When storing the machine outdoors, protect the ROPS
frame by wrapping it in PE lm carefully secured with adhe­sive tape. Prolonged exposure to rain may cause damage to
the ROPS frame.

• preserve the engine according to the manufacturer's manu-
al – mark visibly that the engine is preserved.

After 6 months, we recommend you to inspect the condi­tion of preservation and renew if required.

Never start the engine during storage!
When the machine is stored under eld conditions,

check that the parking place is not exposed to danger of
ooding due to oods and that there is no other type of
danger in this area (landslip etc.)!

2.3.3 Machine depreservation

• Check all parts of the machine for damage during storage
and for missing parts.

If the machine has been preserved, remove the preserva­tive agents as follows:

Wash o the preservative agents using a high-pressure
stream of hot water with common degreasers:

- Wash the machine while observing environmental
principles.

- Caution! Do not use a high-pressure stream to wash
the edge cutter and the highlighted parts of the ma­chine as shown in Fig. 588589A, as this could serious­ly damage the machine.

- Prevent water from entering the air lter, electrical
and electronic parts of the machine.

- Do not use a high-pressure stream near the control
unit!

- Use a high-pressure stream at a maximum angle of 90
degrees downwards.

Remove the preservation and wash the machine in pla­ces with intercepting sumps to catch the water and de-

-preservation agents.

Remove the preservation according to the manufacturer's man­ual.

Before putting the machine into operation, check the op­erating uids.

OPERATING MANUAL

Travel control – right (standard) (11)

The travel control is used to set the engine speed, the parking
brake, forward/reverse direction and the travel speed of the ma­chine. Direction and speed of machine travel is controlled by
shifting the control from zero position (0) forward or backward.
The travel speed corresponds to the displacement of the travel
control at the set speed gear. The travel control is xed in the set
position except for the zero position (0).

The travel control can activate the so-called panic response
(Chapter 2.7.2).

Shifting the control to the neutral position (N) stops the machi­ne – the parking brake is not engaged!

If you leave the travel lever in the neutral position (N),
it is possible that the machine will move from the slope
due to leakages of the hydraulic system.

The parking brake position (P) is indicated by lighting up of the
parking brake indicator lamp.

The travel control is tted with vibration, drum sprinkling, edge
cutter (up/down) and edge cutter sprinkling switches.

Seat switch

The seat switch is located in the seat cushion.

If the driver is not sitting on the seat, the seat switch is deactivat­ed and the operation of the machine is restricted in one of the
following ways – blocking of engine start, blocking of moving
o, stopping of the machine or switching o the engine.

These restrictions vary depending on:

• the time period for which the seat switch is deactivated,

• the position of the travel control (if it is in the parking brake
“P” position or outside this position)

Engine start blocking

If the driver is not sitting on the seat, engine start is blocked un­less the travel control is in the parking brake position (P).

To enable engine start, set the travel control to the parking
brake position (P).

Movement blocking

If the driver is not sitting on the seat, moving o is blocked. In
this case, moving the travel control out of the parking brake (P)
position immediately switches o the engine with a 5 second
delay.

To enable engine start, sit on the seat and set the travel control
to the parking brake position (P).

Machine stop

If the driver leaves the seat for more than 5 seconds and less
than 10 seconds when the travel control is not in the parking
brake position (P), the machine stops. The traction force of the
machine is o, vibration is o and, after a delay, the parking
brake engages (P).

To be able to move o again, sit on the seat and set the travel
control to the parking brake position (P).

Engine shutdown

If the driver leaves the seat for more than 10 seconds when the
travel control is not in the parking brake position (P), the engine
shuts down.

To re-enable engine start, sit on the seat and set the travel con­trol to the parking brake position (P).

It is forbidden to load the seat switch with other items!
When operating the machine, the driver must follow the

safety regulations and not carry out any activity that mi­ght endanger the safety of work; the driver must fully
focus on steering the machine.

When operating the machine, the driver must always sit
on the seat.

When leaving the machine, the driver must take measu­res against unauthorized use of the machine and against
unintentional starting.

Selection of the travel direction

• Selection of the travel direction is set on the active travel control. Set and leave the inactive travel control in the parking brake
position (P).

• Move the travel control (11) from the parking brake (P) to the neutral position (N) – releasing of the brakes, the parking brake indi-
cator lamp (29) goes out.

• Move the travel control (11) to the position (0) and select a travel direction (F/R).

When the driver releases the travel control (11), it does not return to the zero position automatically. The travel control remains in the
selected position.

When the driver quickly moves the travel control (11) through the zero position (0) from the selected direction of the machine travel,
e.g. due to a dangerous situation, the machine stops and the parking brake is engaged (panic response).

When the driver moves travel control (11) from the selected direction of machine travel to the neutral position, e.g. due
to a dangerous situation, the machine stops but the parking brake is not engaged. This may cause counting movement
of the machine when driving down the slope, due to leakages form the hydraulic system.

Travel speed selection

• The travel speed is set on the active travel control. Set and leave the inactive travel control in the parking brake position (P).

• The travel speed corresponds to the deection of the travel control (11) from the zero position (0) at the given engine speed (3)
and mode of operation (4) of the machine.

• The travel speed can be changed with the travel mode switch (4).

Panic response

The immediate stop of the machine using the travel control (11) applies to all of the travel modes of the machine. When the travel
control (11) is changed to the opposite position through (0) within 1 second, the machine will stop – the parking brake will be engaged
and the engine will keep running, i.e. panic response. When the machine vibration is on, the vibration will stop also when the manual
vibration mode is selected. When the machine is equipped with two travel controls, the panic response can be enabled also on the
inactive travel control. The machine can start moving again after the travel control (11) is changed to the neutral position (0) and the
travel direction (F/R) is selected.

Note

If the driver leaves the driver’s seat while the travel control is not in the brake position (P), the machine behaves according to the seat
switch description (Chapter 2.6).

When the driver moves travel control from the brake position (P) without sitting on the seat at that time, the engine will be stopped
after 5 seconds.

Protect the dashboard and the engine compartment from unauthorized access of others by locking the dashboard cover and the
engine bonnet.

It is forbidden to use the parking brake for bringing the machine to astop.

2.7.6 Panic response

The immediate stop of the machine using the travel control (11) applies to all of the travel modes of the machine. When the travel
control (11) is changed to the opposite position through (0) within 1 second, the machine will stop – the parking brake will be engaged
and the engine will keep running, i.e. panic response. When the machine vibration is on, the vibration will stop also when the manual
vibration mode is selected. The machine can start moving again after the travel control (11) is changed to the parking brake position
(P) and the travel direction (F/R) is selected.

It is forbidden to use the panic response for common stopping the machine. Enable the panic response only in emer­gency when the machine must be stopped immediately.
