The soil compactor is started by means of a reversible starter (1/5).
The machine is steered with the handle (1/3) holding the lever (1/12) for the engine speed adjustment and the drive
lever (1/2) for the selection of the direction of travel and of the infinitely variable speed. The spring bar (1/11) allows
to lock the handle in vertical position during working breaks and when the machine is transported.
