460-8956: Transmission Control Lever

The Transmission Control Lever is a component By adjusting the position of the lever, the operator can regulate the forward or reverse movement speed of the compactor. When the lever is in the engaged position, it activates the vibratory system, causing the compactor's drum or plate to vibrate. This vibration helps to compact the material being worked on, such as soil or asphalt, by improving the material's density and reducing air voids. Conversely, when the lever is in the disengaged position, the vibratory system is deactivated, and the compactor operates in a static mode without vibration. This can be useful when transitioning between different areas or when working on delicate surfaces that may be sensitive to vibration. Attributes: • Allows choice of different gears or transmission modes • Physically connects lever movement to transmission engagement • Defines arrangement and sequence of gear positions • Output force is exerted on the other arm Applications: The Transmission Control Lever is assembled in the handle control group and it is used to forward or reverse the movement speed of the compactor machine.
