Visibility
The one-piece sloped hood design
provides exceptional operator visibility
to the rear of the machine. The sloped
water tank also provides good visibility
to the front of the machine.

Compactor features excellent operator
comfort and visibility
grouped control gauges and
conveniently located control switches
enhance operator productivity and
reduce fatigue. An optional MVP
control console rotates to three different
positions, left, right or center and
allows the operator to view the front
tire contact points.

Adjustable, cushioned seat provides
lasting comfort.
Flat platform enhances operator’s
mobility and visibility.
Streamlined gauges keep operator
informed of engine systems and
machine status.
Single lever propel control simplifies
operation.
Standard equipment includes Roll Over
Protective Structure (ROPS) and a 75
mm (3") wide retractable seat belt.
Optional rotating operator’s station
allows operator to swivel control
console from left side to right side.
Tire Overlap/Wheel Oscillation
Tires overlap and wheels oscillate for maximum compactive effort with each pass.
Front and rear wheels paths overlap
13 mm (0.5") to provide full-width
coverage of 1743 mm (69") and 2134
mm (84") with 11-wheel option.
Front and rear wheel bolsters oscillate
±4.4 degrees to allow uniform
compaction across entire rolling width.
(Note: With the 11-wheel option,
oscillation angle on outside rear wheels
is zero degrees up and 4.4 degrees
down.)
Wheel oscillation helps ensure
excellent bonding of longitudinal
asphalt joints.
