PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
2.4 Intended use
2.4.1 Intended purpose of the Rammax 1575
The Rammax 1575 trench roller is a roller specially designed for trench compacting.
The unlimited side clearance of the roller drums allows compacting in very narrow,
tight trenches right up to the trench walls. The wet, clayey soils found in sewer construction, pipeline construction, road foundations and construction backfilling, etc., are
the areas of application for this modern trench roller. The infrared remote control also
makes it possible to drive underneath trench shoring in trenches. In hazardous construction site applications, it is possible for the operator to control the machine from a
safe distance with no personal risk.
Normal modes of
operation
Special operating
modes
Use the Rammax 1575 roller exclusively for driving on and compacting:
● Unbonded layers (earth, gravel, crushed stone).
● Transport of the roller from A to B (crane and low loader).
● Cleaning the roller.
● Maintenance of roller according to maintenance plan or in the event of defects.
● Rectification of machine faults by trained personnel based on error messages.
● Towing the roller.
● Proper disposal by the operator in accordance with national regulations.
2.4.2 Requirements for the roller driver
Only trained, suitable and reliable specialists may operate the rollers.
2.4.3 Application limits

3.1 General working safety
!
● The roller may only be used for driving on and compacting loose top layers (gra-
vel, earth). Other uses are prohibited.
● Rollers may only be operated with all safety devices operating. Manipulation or
disregard of safety devices and regulations invalidates the CE conformity.
● Before starting every shift, check the effectiveness of the operation and safety de-
vices and that the protection devices are in place.
● Check the steering and brakes when you start work. If defects are apparent, roller
operation is not permitted.
● If you identify any defects on the safety system or defects that impair safe opera-
tion of the equipment, inform your supervisor immediately. The roller may no longer be operated.
● If you identify any defects which endanger safe operation, cease operation imme-
diately.
● Only perform work on and clean the roller if it is stationary and secured from
rolling away.
● Switch off the engine when filling the fuel tank. Do not fill up fuel in enclosed spa-
ces. No open flames.
● Do not vibrate on slopes or inclines where there is a hazard of slipping or overtur-
ning.
● Do not drive on slopes that are steeper than the maximum climbing capacity of
the equipment. Always drive the roller carefully perpendicular to the slope dip.
● Do not vibrate inside buildings and on unstable ground.
● The driving and working field of view must not be obstructed in any way.
● Switch off the engine before leaving the roller. Secure the roller against unautho-
rized start-up and rolling away.
● Take suitable visible measures to secure parked rollers that pose an obstruction.
● Never work under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medicines that impair consci-
ousness.
● Only operate the roller in good general light conditions and good workspace illu-
mination.
● The workplace of the operator is located at a safe distance of at least 2m.
SAFETY INFORMATION
3.2 Roller operation
DANGER
Rollover hazard when driving the roller!
• Only start the roller using the handheld transmitter.
• Personnel may not stand in front of or behind the roller while it
is in operation.
• Persons necessary for operations at the sides of the equipment
must remain at a safe distance of at least 2 m.

3.2.1 Shear points
A
● When closing the hood ensure that no objects are situated between the hood and
the chassis.
● Take care that nothing is jammed in the joint plates when rotating the roller drums.
● Do not put hands between the roller drum and support during operation.
SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER
Danger to life through tipping or slipping of the roller! The edges of filled areas may give way!
• Only travel directly up or down slopes.
• Do not drive across slopes.
• Keep your distance to embankments and edges!
• Do not drive at an angle into or out of the trench.
• Park the roller on slopes only in such a way that it cannot overturn.
• Use the roller on slopes only in such a way that it cannot overturn.
• The roller drums have very poor adhesion on snow and ice. Driving or working on a slope in snow or ice is prohibited.
• Damp a
upward and downward grades considerably. Adapt the speed
of the machine to the terrain when driving on grades.
• The nature of the ground and weather conditions can negatively affect the climbing ability of the machine.
Never drive on slopes that are steeper than the maximum climbing ability of the machine.
nd loose surfaces reduce the traction of the machine on
Fig. 3-1 Tipping hazard
Construction site conditions can have a negative effect on stability and the tipping
angle.

SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER
Crushing hazard in the area of the articulated joint
• During operation, there is always a crushing hazard in the area
of the articulated joint. Therefore, it is not permitted for persons
to be in this area during operation. In general, a safety distance
of at least 2 meters to the machine must be maintained during
operation.

an angle of 45°. In this case, the engine shuts itself off automatically. The machine cannot be started as long as the inclination sensor remains triggered.
If the machine has tipped over, it is possible for engine oil to enter the combustion area. If the machine is started after it has been righted, engine damage is
possible.
• Set the machine upright. Do not start the engine un
der any circumstances.
• Inform the service workshop.

NOTE Bear in mind the priority of the displays: First is the tilt switch, then “Wait” and
last, the status error transistor.
Display Cause Remedy
Error lights up The tilt switch has been triggered.
The roller is at an angle of more
than about 45° or has tipped over.
Set the machine upright.
Display Cause Remedy
Error lights up A switching transistor signals
a status error. This means
that, for example, a short circuit or a cable break has
been detected.
Check the cable for a short circuit or cable break.

The green LED is blinking slowly. The roller is being controlled via the cable.
The green LED is flashing. The roller is being controlled via infrared.
The red LED blinks either faster or slower depending on the battery charge level. The lower
the charge state, the longer the on-phase of the LED.

NOTE It is still possible to control via the cable once the battery is empty.
Battery warnings and errors are only displayed during active control (i.e., when
a control element is actuated).
As soon as and as long as the infrared transmitter is attached to the machine
controller via the cable and the ignition is turned to I, the red LED must flash
or be lighted.

king lasts longer or should even become permanent, there is a problem with
pairing:
• A cable break in one of the signal lines
• A short circuit in one of the signal lines
As long as this blinking pattern remains, no control signals will be sent to the
machine controller.
Automatic pairing occurs at the moment the cable is unplugged, or, if the cable
is plugged in, when the infrared transmitter is switched on.
● When the infrared transmitter is switched on, both LEDs are switched on briefly.
This feature helps to determine that the LEDs are still functioning.
● As soon as the cable is unplugged from the handheld transmitter or from the rol-
ler, the red LED lights up for about 1 second.
The infrared transmitter is coupled with the
machine controller.
