A system and a method for controlling tire air pressure of a compactor having a plurality of tires. A weight distribution of the compactor is determined according to a per-tire basis. Target air pressures for each of the tires are determined in order to achieve a consistent compaction surface contact pressure across all of the tires or a set of the tires. Air pressure of the tires is controlled to achieve the target air pressures to make the compaction surface contact pressure consistent across all of the tires or the set of the tires.

A roller assembly for smoothing an expanse of granular media such as golf bunker sand, snow, horse race track dirt, or other media. The assembly has one or more rollers having a longitudinal axis. Each roller includes wires spaced from the axis to define a roller surface. Each wire is resiliently flexible to distort inwardly in response to force of contact on, and to recover during release of force from, the granular media as the roller rotates about the axis on the granular media. A shaft extends along the axis of the roller assembly between the arms of a yoke with a handle extending therefrom. As the roller surface traverses the media, at least some of the media is flung outwardly of the roller, smoothing the expanse. The roller assembly may be manually operated or may be towed behind a towing apparatus.

The invention relates to a construction machine (1) with a machine frame (2), a driver cab (6) with a right and a left door-window unit (12) when viewed in a traveling direction (A) of the construction machine (1), wherein the door-window units (12) are adjustable between a closed and an open position, and with a drive engine (13) and front and rear traveling devices (4, 5). Essentially, the door-window units (12) can be opened in an opposite manner, in particular depending on the side of the machine frame (2) on which the front and rear traveling devices (4, 5) respectively sit flush with the machine frame (2). The invention is particularly relevant for ground compaction machines, in particular rubber-tired rollers. The invention further relates to a method for operating a construction machine (1) and a method for manufacturing a construction machine (1).
