- 01
Walk-around inspection
Levels, leaks, drum and sprinkler condition. Seatbelt, horn and lights. Always mount facing in, three points of contact.
- 02
Rolling plan
Set the pattern: edges first, then low side to high side. On a curve, the inside lane first.
- 03
Asphalt: breakdown, intermediate, finish
A static breakdown pass, vibratory passes to densify while hot, and a final static pass to seal and erase marks.
- 04
Overlap and hold speed
~15 cm overlap between lanes. A steady walking speed: rushing leaves washboarding in the asphalt.
- 05
Kill vibration before stopping
Never stop with vibration on over asphalt: it leaves a dip. Switch off, then brake.
Do this
- Seatbelt always on; the machine has ROPS for a reason.
- Sprinkler open on asphalt, with the mix temperature under control.
- Smooth, gradual direction changes.
Avoid this
- Don't stop while vibrating on the hot mat.
- Don't descend slopes in neutral or coasting.
- Don't vibrate near structures or utilities without assessing.
Safety
- Seatbelt, hard hat, hi-vis vest and hearing protection.
- Traffic spotter and a signed zone on roadways.
- Respect the machine's maximum working grade.
