A method for operating a self-propelled road construction machine as well as a road construction machine with which an adjustment of the traction of the wheeled undercarriage can be performed in a quick and easy manner by monitoring and actively regulating the traction of the tires in dependence on the operating mode of the road construction machine. Pavers and feeders for the making of road covers have a wheeled undercarriage, especially with pneumatic tires. For a uniform production process of the road cover, adequate traction of the tires is needed. For this, prior to the start of the production process the tire air pressure of the tires is decreased, and it is increased once again for travel on the road, and the manual adjustment of the tire air pressure to the installation conditions and/or to the operating mode of the road construction machine is time consuming and cost intensive.
A method for operating a self-propelled road construction machine, especially a paver (10) or a feeder for producing a road cover with an undercarriage (12) having driven tires (15), comprising monitoring and actively regulating the traction of the tires (15) of the undercarriage (12) in dependence on the operating mode of the road construction machine.
A road construction machine, especially a paver (10) or feeder, having an undercarriage (12) with driven tires (15), comprising an automatic or manually activatable traction control device (26) for the active traction control of the tires (15) with a tire pressure monitoring unit, wherein the traction of the driven tires (15) is adaptable accordingly during the running of the operating mode by a measurement of the tire pressure.
