Operating The Tdx Roller; Service & Maintenance - Altrad Belle TDX 650A Manuel De L'opérateur

Having carried out the checks listed in the 'pre start' section, you may start the engine.
The ALTRAD Belle TDX 650A Roller is tted with a centrifugal clutch; this allows the engine to run at idle without driving the
Hydraulic pump.
As the engine speed is increased the clutch will engage and the engine will drive the Hydraulic Pump to send the hydraulic
power to drive the drums, and to drive the vibration mechanism as well. To avoid any damage to the centrifugal clutch, move
the throttle lever quickly from L to H position. For correct operation, the engine speed should be set to maximum during the
compaction operation
Avoid operating the machine on a fully compacted, hard, or non-yielding surface. Otherwise, the bearings and other mechanical
components will be damaged, and the life of the machine will be greatly reduced.
When working on a steep slope, pay extra care in operating the machine so that the machine roll down the slope.
Always work up or down the slop. Do not work across the slope. If the machine is parked on a slope, always apply the Parking
Brake Lever.
When the machine is going in reverse, make sure not to stand behind the Operation Handle. Always walk along the Operation
Handle and face toward the direction of travel.
Lifting
Where it is necessary to use lifting equipment to position the TDX 650A, make sure the lifting equipment has a WLL (Working Load
Limit) suitable for the machine's weight (see Tecnical Data table). Attach suitable chains or slings ONLY to the lifting points provided
at the centre of the machine (Lifting Eye) or at each corner of the machine (Strapping Points).
