Important notes on the machine

1.1.2 Description

Our long experience in the development and construction of vibratory trench rollers is the basis for the new development of the infrared and/or cable controlled RX 1510-CI. The enormous degree of operating convenience, which provides both for cable and infrared control, permits the user to make even more ﬂexible use of the machine. The hard-wearing, compact design offers a high degree of security even in the most difﬁcult terrain. The RX 1510-CI is equipped with hydrostatic steering, vibration, and drive. The machine is extremely maintenance friendly (with the exception of the diesel engine), no V-belts, drive belts, lubrication nipples or shiftable clutches are used. Most modern control electronics, as well as the proven 8 strippers for the drums characterise this machine.

1.1.3 Areas of application

The vibratory trench roller RX 1510-CI is a roller particularly designed for trench compaction. The complete lack of side walls on the drum enables compaction right up to the trench wall also in very small and narrow trenches. Wet, clayey soils in canalisation, pipeline construction, road substructure and construction backﬁlls, etc., are the ranges of application of this modern trench roller. The infrared control also permits driving underneath bracings when constructing trenches. During dangerous construction-site operations, it is possible for the operator to control the machine from a safe distance and not to expose himself to hazards.

1.1.4 Intended use

The machine is exclusively conceived for the compaction of loose backﬁll, such as earth, gravel, or sand, as well as mixtures of these. The machine may not be used on hard, already compacted or frozen soils.

1.1.5 Workplace

The intended workplace of the machine operator is behind the machine. The control switches of the control elements only correspond to the direction of movement of the machine from behind the machine.

1.1.6 Danger areas

There is the risk of crushing in the area of the articulation! Staying in this area during operation is not permitted. During operation of the vibration function, loose stones, earth and rubble can be hurdled into air. Persons in this area can be hit and injured by these ﬂying around objects. A safety distance of at least 2 meters must be observed around the machine, when the machine is in operation.

1.1.7 Modiﬁcations to the machine

For reasons of safety, users are prohibited from making their own modiﬁcations or conversions to the machine. This machine may only be equipped with original spare parts, which have been constructed for this machine and correspond to the requirements of the manufacturer. The installation or use of special `equipment or special parts can impair driving safety. The manufacturer does not warrant for damages, which result from the use of non-original parts or optional equipment, each adhesion of the manufacturer is impossible and all warranty claims become void.

3.1 Introduction

3.1.1 Basic information on soil compaction

Subsoil compaction is achieved by the constant effect of vertical impact forces. These are created by a rotating exciter shaft. The unequal weight distribution of the exciter shaft cross section displaces the exciter shaft and thus vibrates the drum. These vibrations affect the compressed material vertically and compress it.

5.1 Safety instructions

5.2 Examination before start-up

Start-up

Only qualiﬁed and appropriately trained specialised personnel, with a minimum age of 18 years, may operate the machine. Persons acting under the inﬂuence of drugs, medicines or alcohol may not operate the machine.

Before putting the machine into service every day or before a long work period, the following checks must be performed. The safety regulations must be observed hereby.

The following must be checked:

• The function of all safety equipment

• Whether the transport protection has been removed

• All bolt connections for ﬁrm ﬁt

• Fuel tank and fuel lines for leaktightness

• Machine and engine for damages

• Function of the control elements

• Function of the steering system

• Hydraulic system for leaktightness

5.2.1 Checking hydraulic oil level

The sight glass for the examination of the hydraulic oil level is located under the operating panel. The ﬁll level should be within the sight glass.

cap.

NOTE

5.2.2 Checking engine oil level

The dipstick is located on the right side of the engine underneath the cooling water tank. The engine has been ﬁlled in the factory with engine oil, viscosity class 15W40. If there is the need to change to a different viscosity class (e.g.: permanent extreme outdoor temperatures), the oil must be changed.

1) Park the machine on ﬂat ground.

– 60 –

RX 1510-C/-I/-CI

Start-up

CAUTION

Danger of burning! The engine and its detachable parts are hot during and immediately after operation. Before touching the engine or the detachable parts ﬁrst allow these to cool down.

2) Pull the dipstick out.

3) Wipe the dipstick with a dry, ﬁbre-free rag.

4) Insert the dipstick up to the stop in its ﬁxture.

5) Pull the dipstick out again and read the oil level. ► The oil level should be between the two markings. More engine oil must be ﬁlled in, if the oil level is too low (only use engine oils with the same viscosity).

5.2.3 Checking cooling water level

Work may only be carried out on the cooling system when the diesel engine has cooled down. The machine must be parked on a level ground. The cooling water level is examined directly at the radiator. The compensating tank only serves as a buffer in order to take up water during expansion by the thermal effect and keep it in the cooling circuit. The engine hood and the radiator hatch must be open, in order to check the cooling water level. The radiator must be completely ﬁlled. Coolant must be reﬁlled, if the ﬁll level is too low. A radiator anti-freezing agent must be used in frost-endangered areas. The radiator has been ﬁlled in the factory with a radiator anti-freezing agent/water mixture. This mixture is adjusted to a temperature resistance of up to -30°C.

DANGER

Risk of scalding! The engine extremely heats up the cooling water. The radiator is under pressure. When opening the radiator cap the pressure can escape suddenly and the hot cooling water can cause severe scalding! ► Never open the cap of the radiator when the engine is running! ► Wait until the motor has cooled down before opening.

8.14 Servicing the battery

NOTE

AS AS

The battery is located underneath the operating panel. It is maintenance-free according to EN/DIN. That means it that during normal operating temperatures and correct controller voltage no water must be reﬁlled. Water is used up in the case of deviation from the standard conditions. The following among others is considered as a deviation from normal conditions:

• High outside temperatures

• Demanding use of the machine

• Continuous operation on upward gradients and downward gradients within the extreme range (just below the maximum gradeability).

It is advisable to check the water level of the battery in regular intervals. The service life is reduced substantially, if the battery is operated with a too low water level. The battery terminals and cable clips must in particular be cleaned regularly and then generously greased with petroleum jelly.
