R50-11 Owners Manual
Standard operation procedures
1. Inspect and check that the roller is serviceable
prior to departing from workshop.
2. Use a suitable towing vehicle to move roller
from green to green.
3. Maximum recommended towing speed
would be equal to a motorized golf buggy.
Approximately 4mph/7kph. Towing at excess
speed or across rough terrain may cause
damage to the machine and trailer.
4. When approaching the green do not tow the
roller onto the green to set up, put the roller
on the fringe of the green. Put trailer in the up
position, start up the roller and drive it onto the
green.
5. Greens can be rolled in any direction; take care
to ensure there are no crease lines produced on
the surface.
6. It is recommended that you place the smoothing
head rollers on the high side of the green when
rolling. This increases the weight onto the
rubber drive roller and creates better traction,
it also reduces slipping or spinning of the drive
roller on the green, depending also on the
operators ability. Whilst becoming familiar with
the roller, set the throttle at about 1/2 - 3/4
speed. Press the left or right foot pedal down
gently but not suddenly. Be smooth with your
action, hold in this position until nearing the
edge of the green, then take your foot gently
off the pedal, the roller will come to a stop. Rest
your other foot on the opposite pedal and gently
apply the pressure to the pedal. It then starts to
move the roller in the opposite direction. Once
again be gentle with the pedal, but not sudden.
By using the left and right pedal in this manner,
will ensure there is no damage to the green
and less wear and tear on the equipment and
operator.
